Milkman delivers

QUOTE(AirScott @ May 30, 2005 -> 04:13 PM) before anyone says anything more, don't be too hard on Crede. when's the last time he bunted? f*** that, he's a major league hitter. He can't even hit regularly, he should be able to bunt. f***ing s*** ass bastard. Widger thrown out at home.

f***ING DAMNIT I HATE JOE CREDE

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 30, 2005 -> 04:05 PM) LOL @ Bengie Molina's speed. He only gets a single on that hit. He's the guy that grounded into the 5-4-3 triple play last year, right? I remember watching it. It was both sad and hilarious because he was putting everything into hustling down that line, but he was still at a regular person's walking speed...backwards.

What happened to that 20-minute standing O?

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ May 30, 2005 -> 12:12 PM) Regardless of how he has played this year, its shocking to see a player who did so well last year treated so poorly. Who's scoreless inning streak were we riding last year? He has lost his control a little, and quite frankly almost every game Ive seen him got rocked the ump has been calling a tight strike zone. Thats no excuse, but the margin for error is so small in the majors that I think Shingo just needs to refine his stuff and he will be effective again. He has a no trade clause, so trading him to anywhere but the NY or the West Coast will probably be impossible (I wonder if hed waive for Seattle or SF, etc.) The reality is the Sox need to help Shingo get back on track, because otherwise we are Hermanson or bust. SB What's he done for us recently?

QUOTE(JimH @ May 29, 2005 -> 01:37 PM) If Crede gets hurt the Sox will go hard after Randa. If Crede stays healthy, they won't. And I agree Jason, the Reds would be all over a one for one swap, the White Sox won't. Then I'm gonna break Crede's leg. That's right, it's not green.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 29, 2005 -> 01:34 PM) Randa with a chronic bad back is better than a 100% healthy Cruddy. Agreed, but Crede has potential.

It's Joe Randa time.

Single from JD.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 29, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) AJP has gone from red hot to god awful over the course of a week. He's back to swinging at anything within a foot of the plate. That's this team's MO.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 22, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) A couple of my friends who were really into it said Windu is supposed to be the best swordsman of all the jedi while yoda had the best mastery of the force. So I think it was more Windu being that good. Of course I thought the same thing you did...they want on to call me a moron...I called them dorks Na, it's clear that the emperor was playing possum. First, he easily beats three other Jedis (and I believe they were all Masters) before he goes after Windu. Second, he just threw himself onto the ground for no reason and took a position to make him seem helpless. And even the things he says are really ridiculous sounding. He says things like, "Oh, woe is me" and "I have no more power," but he easily tosses Windu about 5,000 feet in the air after that. He was faking so that Anakin would take his side. Besides, even is Windu is a really good swordsman, what would that have to do with being able to hold back the Emperor's powers? He'd probably be able to hold his own in a straight sword fight, but probably not when the Emperor used the force.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ May 23, 2005 -> 12:04 PM) That's not true though... Luke knew at the time of the convervation (on the Endor moon after the Obi Wan spirit had told him on Degobah), and it was revealed to Leia shortly thereafter when tells Luke, "I know... somehow I've always known..." I did a little checking online after I saw the movie because I had a lot of questions and I'm not one of those people that knows everything about Star Wars. This is what I got: People with the force have strong ties to the past and future. Since Leia was the daughter of Anakin (the strongest in the force), she most likely had the some of the force, too, but she didn't know it. She could have had visions of her mother because of the force, but she assumed they were memories because she didn't understand the force. Again, I didn't know this before I read it online. I'm not one of those Star Wars nuts.

Not sure if we're using this thread for today's game, but here's the lineup from gameday: Podsednik LF Iguchi 2B Everett DH Konerko 1B Pierzynski C Dye RF Rowand CF Crede 3B Uribe SS Dellucci DH Young SS Teixeira 1B Blalock 3B Soriano 2B Mench LF Nix CF Hidalgo RF Barajas C

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ May 29, 2005 -> 02:00 AM) McCarthy showed me that he's on the way to becoming a special pitcher, but he also showed me that he's got some more work to do down at AAA before that's going to happen. By the end of the season, maybe he'll be ready, but I'm glad he's going back to AAA to further his development. He seems to have a penchant for serving up the longball, something that he can hopefully correct before we see him at the ML level again. Also, did anyone else notice that he hardly ever threw his changeup? I didn't see him throw it at all, and when he pitched in spring training, that seemed to be a very good pitch for him. Maybe the Sox should do the same thing to him as the Twins did to Santana. Send him back to the minors and tell him to throw the changeup constantly and hone it. Imagine that?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 29, 2005 -> 12:42 AM) That would make sense. The Reds aren't going anywhere and appear to be in sell / salary-dumping mode. Send them Cruddy and a prospect or two for Randa and we can all be happy. I would even try to get Kent Mercker if he wasn't such a tool last season with the Flubs. I don't think Randa would cost us Crede and two prospects. If they're dumping salaray, we might not even have to give them a prospect at all. Crede for Randa straight-up would help them lose a bit of salary.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 29, 2005 -> 12:38 AM) Joe Randa. Book it. Do you really believe we'll get him? I've been saying we should get him since last year, so this would make me extremely happy.

Guess I'm going out tonight then. Have fun, everyone.

You learn something new everyday.

QUOTE(doUrememberwhen @ May 28, 2005 -> 05:33 PM) sorry if i insulted u and ure white stonewashed jeans.jk I'm not really a jeans guy. Herb, on the other hand, seems to enjoy them. Anyway, how do you know if someone is typing?

QUOTE(longshot7 @ May 28, 2005 -> 05:31 PM) Anyone who thinks the Twins can catch us are crazy. Yeah, just like the last few years. We're invincible.

QUOTE(doUrememberwhen @ May 28, 2005 -> 05:30 PM) u were typing for 10 minutes to state the obvious as per usual I was waiting to post whether the Twins held on or if the Jays came back. You know, in case somebody else would want to know. You really don't have to be a jagoff about it.

QUOTE(doUrememberwhen @ May 28, 2005 -> 05:24 PM) im still waiting for milkman to state the obvious as he has been tying now for about 10 minutes What's that?

3.5 game lead

Ah, the evil empire and the...uh, well...other evil empire.
