QUOTE(Frank the Tank 35 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 01:18 PM) Alex Gonzalez asking for $21 mil?? lol... that's funny. Any team that gives him that is clearly desperate to throw money away. I'd be hard pressed to give BOTH Alex Gonzalez' that money. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Julio Lugo would be an awesome fit for the Sox. The D-rays have a $5 mil option on him for next year. Even if they pick him up (must be tempting for their cheap owner to just drop a $5 mil tab), he doesn't want to resign there and they will have to trade him during the season or lose him for nothing in 2006. Putting him in at the second spot in the lineup would give us two speedsters at the top who both hit for a decent average plus Gooch could get moved down to third or somewhere he could drive in more runs. Bill Mueller will be a FA after this year. With the BoSox preoccupied with resigning Johnny Damon, the Sox should swoop in and sign Bill, giving us a .300 hitter at the corner. I think Bill is a switch hitter too. Of course Chad Tracy would fit in nice at the hot corner.... Raul Ibanez will be a FA and would be a nice option to play the role Everett played this year. He plays the outfield and 1B and swings a consistent lefthanded stick... another .300 hitter. What are the opinions on resigning Paulie or Frank? I think if Frank is healthy and is signed to an incentive laden contract, the risk/reward would be worth it. Since he's pulled out of his slump, Konerko has been more attractive, but he's going to be getting at least $10 mil. I'm a litte hesitant on that. Frank is gone, I don't think there's any other way to say it. I hope the only way they'll re-sign Konerko is if they win the WS, or at least get there. He's not worth the money he'll get, but we'll have the money to throw around if we get that far.

That didn't take too long, eh? It must suck to get cut from Boston's pen. That's pretty low.

Too close for comfort HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I HATE YOU MARTE, BUT WHITE SOX WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone knew that was coming. Every single one of us.

Don't a really, really bad amount of Marte's inherited runners score? Isn't he bad against lefties?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Marte against a lefty with an inherited runner. This won't be good, but I've been wrong before.

f***

Heart attack time...

The double was on the next pitch. It was against Sexson, one of the best fastball-hitting players in baseball. And if radar guns are off all the time, which they are, he's still throwing harder than almost all (if not all) other pitchers.

Who pitches the 9th after we go scoreless in the top?

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

Did DJ say 102?

Isn't Sexson like a straight fastball hitter?

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 11:26 PM) When did Cotts turn into Marte? He hasn't pitched in about a month. Ozzie put him in a position to fail.

Ozzie, you're simply the greatest manager in baseball. Just fantastic.

Oh no, Contreras.

That is a f***ing joke. ARE THEY THE f***ING BAD NEWS BEARS?

YESSSSSSSSS, he has to be done now. It's so obvious how different Contreras is with runners on. Not just the results, but the look on his face and the way he carries himself.

Whew.............1 more!

Bed = s***. This guy's ridiculous. Looks like Cy Young, turns into a little girl.

And he can't throw strikes.

And here's the implosion.
