Quite looking forward to that.

Konerko to address free agency before TH game

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Oct 1, 2010 -> 12:59 AM) Really? I see about 10 free agent catchers who make about a third or less of what AJ does and they can all put up the .700 OPS you can expect from AJ (though he hasn't quite even produced that yet this year). We would have been better off with Castro starting all year. Flowers could put up a .691 OPS for the league minimum. If AJ were to come back it better be at a HUGE paycut. It will have to be a paycut. The Sox have almost all of the leverage in this situation. Nobody likes AJ. Nobody wants AJ. -
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 1, 2010 -> 09:10 AM) Totally. It would be like attending a funeral and standing over the dead person saying "It's a shame. She was smoking hot." Well, it would be more like saying that about the dead person's daughter.

A couple of things that made me scratch my head: What? QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Oct 1, 2010 -> 12:45 AM) Wow, what a weird, terrible, f***ed up story. Such a pretty girl that Sarah is. I dunno, that just seems a bit out of place.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 05:23 PM) Fear of flying. The last time I fell asleep on a flight was in 2006 when I was flying home from Rio on a 13 hour flight. We were over the Venezuelan coast when we hit some moderate turbulence and I felt like I was plummeting to the ocean below with my eyes closed. Woke up and the call attendant lights were being reset and freaked out. Was convinced we were crashing for the next 5 hours until we passed Bermuda. Haven't been able to sleep on a plane since. I don't know why people are so afraid of dying in a plane crash. I mean, it's gotta be one of the quickest/easiest ways to go, plus it's something that will be remembered.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 01:56 PM) I am betting Liney ends up in a bad contract for bad contract kind of deal so that we can fill positions of need. Sounds like a real possibility.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 12:27 PM) I'm skeptical about how "good" of a return we could get on MB to be honest. I kind of feel he's more valuable to us than what we could expect back. I agree, especially if you want the other team to pick up his salary. -
QUOTE (dmbjeff @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 10:40 AM) Huge offseason for KW. 1B-Franchise's 2nd best player in my eyes, PK is a FA. If he leaves, alot of fans will be upset, but if he wants a long term deal or big time money one last time, I am not for the Sox doing that. 2 year deal at the max with an option for a 3rd in the 10 million range. There will also be other FA's or trade candidates the Sox can explore. Also the possibility of going cheap and giving Viciedo the job is a slight possibility. Dunn, LaRoche, DLee, Huff, Pena, Overbay lead the list of 1B FA's. 2B-SHould be Beckham, but the possibility of a trade of Beckham along with someone like Teahen or Linebrink to give financial flexibility can't be ignored. The only way to get rid of one of our bad contracts is to also give up something of value. I don't think it would be Beckham personally, but seeing a similar player go is a decent probability. SS-Alexei has had a fine season. He will be back. Defense much improved and outside is usual slow start, was a solid hitter all season. 3B-Another huge hole for this team. We have in house candidates in Morel,Viciedo,Teahen. We could resign Vizquel, but I'd rather him be back as a super IF sub. FA options include Beltre and that's about it. C-Is Flowers ready? Why isn't he starting down the stretch to see what we have. AJ has been a staple on the Sox, but his production has slipped. He would be nice to have back at a cheap 1 year deal. FA options include VMart, Buck, Olivo. OF-Rios and Pierre will both be back I assume. What about Q? He has looked lost nearly all year. His 2008 self has been gone for a while. Also his D in RF is atrocious. If he is brought back it would seem to be surely as a DH. FA options include Crawford and Werth but after that, the options are very limited. A trade is another possible option. DH-The problem area of 2010. Any of those 1B options could be a possibility along with Thome,Manny,Ortiz,Matsui,Burrell. SP-Our area of strength. One of these guys will almost surely be dealt for financial reasons. Danks,Floyd or Jax seem most likely to go. Buehrle should be back and hopefully Peavy will be back from his injury. We also have Sale as a possible 5th starter. RP- Thornton and Linebrink are the only sure things to be back. Sale too, depending on how the Sox want to use him. Jenks should be gone. Putz could be brought back along with Pena, but inevitably, we will also have another cheap arm or 2 back there for financial reasons. Bench- Teahen looks to be the super sub and I think Vizquel will be back as well. That leaves a backup C and OF to be needed. These could be taken care of by just bringing back Castro and Jones. Financially KW has a tough offseason ahead. 15 guys under contract for about 83million or so. That leaves about 20-25 mil to play with to address C,1B,3B,DH,RP, a 3-4 bench spots. He has never been a let the kids play type of GM so I anticipate alot of deals this offseason. 3 huge offensive positions need to be addressed and will he trust kids to fill them out? It will be an exciting offseason for sure. I certainly don't think Linebrink is a lock to be on the team next year. He only has one year left (I believe) on his contract, so I'm sure someone would be willing to take a chance on him.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 09:11 AM) It can't even be close honestly. Star Wars is The Beatles of the movies. I kind of figured that, but I wasn't 100% sure. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 09:12 AM) it just seems cheap now Christopher Nolan now confirmed for Batman 3, says script is being edited I agree, but I'd be doing the same exact thing.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 08:46 AM) It will probably be another surprise. Giraldo was a shame, Curtis was getting up there, the next one will probably be a big surprise to us Giraldo was probably the surprise. The next one will likely be someone who is old and won't surprise anyone when they go, but probably a bigger name than the other two.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 01:10 AM) I agree that Pierre would have to go, but then again I hate his style of play so I would love that. I doubt the Sox actually get Crawford, but my guess is that they will court him heavily this offseason. The Sox courting a big free agent, only to have him sign somewhere else for more money? I don't believe it.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 08:42 AM) I am really getting sick of Lucas repeatedly milking this cow. If it's not the most profitable film series of all time, it has to be near the top. I would do the same thing if I were him.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 29, 2010 -> 11:48 AM) You mean other than the fact that everything reported so far has him ready for Spring Training? I mean, obviously, with an obscure injury like this, you never really know. But everything said about the nature of the injury and the surgery, and rehab so far, indicates things are as good as can be expected. So yeah, I'll stick with probable. That's exactly what I mean. To say that a pitcher is probable to come back from an injury that never happens to pitchers is, I believe, just pretty hopeful.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Sep 29, 2010 -> 12:57 PM) I didn't think last night's episode was all that great. They didn't really "do" all that much. The only action that happened was from them getting the medication. My favorite line was Tig saying that Gemma could go redhead and her getting pissed at him. Ha! That didn't even occur to me.
