Milkman delivers

QUOTE (Al Lopez's Ghost @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 06:43 AM) I was afraid they might raise all prices to $56. You mean lower?

Don't feel bad about making your mother sad by moving out. Trust me, she'll appreciate it, especially since you're the last to go (your dad will appreciate it even more, *pistolwink*).

QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 10:13 PM) So how did he look tonight?? I missed most of the game. He was good, but according to Hawk, we don't need to make any pitching acquisitions due to his performance.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 10:09 PM) How many times can everyone say the same s*** over and over again in different threads. KW never has and never will be a seller, period. What White Sox GM has everyone been watching for the last decade? Oh, then we should just not post anything because Williams hasn't been a seller? There's two new threads, by the way. One is a poll and the other is just a regular thread. So, I guess the answer is two.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 10:06 PM) It's not really KW's MO, and with most of the contracts that have been passed out I can't blame them. The NYY are in a different league than anyone else and they can afford the mega contracts, but KW has done a great job of adding talent through trade and I think that's where he'll make his big splash in the offseason. Again, they've targeted FAs, but once the bidding gets crazy they pull back, which I agree with. And he can help his case by trading some of the higher-paid guys for some prospects and to free up more money.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:59 PM) Yay, more buyer or seller threads. Two days before the trade deadline after getting embarrassed by the top contenders for the division, what the hell else should people be discussing?

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 10:02 PM) who have they been outbid on that was a great move? The Fukudome contract (actually Sox and I believe one other team did outbid the Cubs) and Tori Hunter are bloated. When have we landed a big free agent? That's what I mean.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:58 PM) What is he going to realistically replace? Pods (we've been trying to get a stud CF for awhile). Getz (Not a lot of really big 2nd base upgrades out there). I'm just not sure who else you can replace on offense at this point. There really isn't much, and that's why I think we should trade off the valuable pieces we have. That's my top goal, and adding great pieces would be second (and that's not possible). Standing pat and going for it sounds like the worst idea to me.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:56 PM) Yah, I guess thats true, but I don't think we should do it at this point only 3 games out. Just try to build it in the offseason. We are constantly outbid in the offseason for the difference-making players. There's really no point in trying to add on talent at that point, as it won't happen. We should trade our pieces with value to prepare for more trades in the offseason.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:54 PM) Seriously. We're 3 games out with 2 months to play. Anything can happen in the playoffs, especially with a top 3 like we have. Kenny just needs to stand pat and hope our offense starts hitting. If not change things up in the offseason. WHAT?! If anything, they need to add pieces. This team is woeful without additions. I'm not for adding any pieces because I don't believe we could add enough to make us serious contenders, but to think we can compete with what we already have is absurd.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:51 PM) I'm still fairly confident our season will end some time in October. I'm positive of it. The final game is October 4th.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 09:49 PM) We're only 3 games out and I guarantee you this season is not over until the last week of our regular season. And then it may last another 4 games, but there's no chance in hell this team makes it past the first round of the playoffs. And even getting that far would almost need a miracle.

The fact that Pods proves repeatedly that he's a terrible defender, Getz broke the wrong way for no reason on an easy DP ball, and Kotsay hit a ball directly at Cuddyer are not due to the f***ing Metrodome. Shut the f*** up, you pathetic announcer. You're only making an excuse and further perpetuating the belief of the entire organization that it is impossible to win in Minnesota. f*** you, f*** you, f*** you. God, I hate Hawk Harrelson. I almost made this a thread, but figured that would only go badly.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:55 PM) When you say ashamed, you mean emotionally...right? Can one be physically ashamed? If so, that's how they should feel.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:54 PM) Please let that be Wise's last at bat in a Sox uniform. 4 straight losses due to our terrible defense!!!!! Ha.

The White Sox should be ashamed of themselves. Just completely embarrassed.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:51 PM) Who else would hit? Anyone.

How can he leave Wise in here?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:42 PM) This is what happens when you can not hit or field. Sadly I think it is time for Walker's name to come up again in conversation. I would bet any amount of hypothetical money that he will not lose his job this season. Any amount.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 05:52 PM) Jonah Hill is new on my list of "People I would like to punch in the face for no reason". I'm about a year ahead of you on that one.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 06:18 PM) Or drivers should learn that waiting a few extra seconds to pass someone on a bike doing 15mph isn't going to make them an hour late for something. Oh, come on. You know how dangerous it is to have to go around a cyclist who is 5 feet away from the parked cars when there is a constant stream of traffic coming in the opposite direction?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:29 PM) I love the emotional rollercoaster of this game. Scratch that--roller coaster implies ups and down. This is a swan dive off a large cliff. The Giant Drop?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:26 PM) Coming back to somehow win this would be just absolutely phenomenal. Just do it guys, for the sanity of all of us. And crushing if (ha, if) we don't.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 09:20 PM) by injured, you mean not physically, right? Emotionally.

Get badly injured, Dotel. Or get traded. Either way, get badly injured in the near future.
