QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 09:04 AM) Yeah thats a good reason. Ignore the fact that he's actually pitched semi-well recently. People never heal from injuries, especially elbow bone spurs. That's why the Mets dumped Santana.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 11:19 PM) Bad economy, bad team, and a good hockey club can do that I guess. I'm a bit surprised by that though, however they have been doing a lot more ticket advertising this year I've noticed. Maybe even some of their fans have a breaking point. It's also just starting summertime.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 01:48 AM) I was all over the Scott Rolen bandwagon last year. I wanted him bad and he would look dead sexy at 3B. IIRC, the Reds didn't give up much for him and he is fairly cheap. Speaking of the Reds though, I love their lineup. I'd probably put Votto in my top 5 list of best hitters in baseball. And even though he does have ego issues and tries to be the greatest home run hitter ever, I love me some Brandon Phillips. I'd say most people actually thought the Reds overpaid for Rolen and gave up a fairly large amount for a guy the Blue Jays wanted to dump for salary relief anyway.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 06:35 PM) I thought the majority of the big cruisers and aircraft carriers were not stationed at the base the day of the attack? Am I mistaken? There really was no such thing as a "Big cruiser", but the big battleships were all at Pearl, and all of the aircraft carriers were stationed there. It was either sheer luck or the greatest foresight in military history that they weren't in port on the morning of the 7th; the Enterprise and Yorktown were off delivering a shipment of planes to Wake Island that day.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:21 PM) Yup! Eric Holder's gonna settle the score. Terrorists? What law? Immygrants? What law? Oil? GET THEM M'FERS! As expected, the moment there's any possible liability for destroying the livelihood of millions of people, you're immediately providing the defense. I also note that you didn't mention wall street as unpunished. Again, unsurprising.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:46 PM) I can't see KW giving him up now. Where was that information about the Red Sox being interested in him? There was none. I keep pushing possible destinations personally though, because there's so many places with OF problems right now.

Hey, future All-star Julio Borbon is in!

I'd just like to LOL and Sigh at BP's sponsorship of the crosstown cup.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:43 PM) He might be our best trade chip. Alexis Rios.

QUOTE (DukeNukeEm @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:25 PM) Because its war and thats what happens in war? Waging war against civilians is considered a war crime.

Sadly, I think giving up that hit to Hamilton helps Williams's numbers.

Oh goodie, a Randy Williams sighting.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:26 PM) Haha...that's our #5 hitter! At least he had a great May.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:25 PM) 1) I don't want to see him traded period, one of the only players I feel like that about. 2) I don't believe if we trim 20 mil we'd spend 20 mil. Be more like trim 20, spend 5-8 Because the other $10 million would vanish in lost ticket sale revenue that quick.

Kot-sigh.

Good work standing there Paul.

Take 1 PK14

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:18 PM) This team desperately needs an RBI machine. His name was supposed to be Carlos.

Wasn't someone raving about Andrus's defense?

Beckham again with a solid swing.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 08:51 PM) They're sending lawyers to clean up. BP, yeah, of course they are. Someone's got to make sure that the poisoned fishermen can't find the evidence they need to bring their cases.

Cubs against the Pirates makes us against the Indians look good.

QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 1, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) I'm just not sure I believe that Kenny will blow this team up, whether that means unloading a guy like Mark or even Konerko. I'll believe it when I see it. Sadly. I'm still not sure you trade Buehrle to blow this team up.

And Beckham gives them another run there. Good work Sergio.
