White Sox Josh

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:53 AM) I enjoyed the article as well, but how did Olney get all those quotes from Pierz and El Duque? interviewed him. I actually like his work on ESPN. I think he does a solid job.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:56 AM) New Trier couldn't run the ball because Duda couldn't complete a pass. That's not wrong strategy, that's not executing. no New Trier ran most of their plays and all of the passes that Duda made were bombs. I thought short passes would've worked better and than throwing in a bomb. The Wide Outs were terrible to. Not all the blame should be on Duda.

Curry passed his physical according to SC.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:44 AM) If you're strickly talking about the post season, I'd rather leave Bobby in the closers role and keep Duke as a middle reliever. either way just keep on putting up W's. In fact have El Duque set up Jenks. The batters would have no chance. Especially with the speed change between the two pitchers.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:44 AM) At this point if it was possible id rather have Arnie Munoz as our 2nd lefty rather than Marte. im actually a big fan of his. I thought he was solid in the bullpen during the last month of the season. I thought they abused him against montreal and i really felt bad for him. I think he has a future as a LHRP.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:40 AM) But not the WHIP yeah but i think that changes in the postseason. He is probably one of the best postseason pitchers in baseball history. He was in Yankee history that's for sure.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:05 AM) Maine South beat New Trier. New Trier's lackluster defensive backfield hung in there, and the defense as a whole was able to keep them in the game throughout. However, the offense failed to complete a first down in the first half minus a pass interference, and even with the run at the end of the game, completed only five passes with a figure I would guess resulted in a total yards gained of under a hundred. Can't win like that. Star Tyler Knight made the play of the game, not with his arm, but with his leg. With New Trier pressing, down 24-14 with 5 minutes to go, the ball was snapped over Knights head and the ball was rolling back close to the 10, Knight picked it up and booted it which made for a 60 yard differential. As for Knight, he really didnt impress me at all. He had three touchdown passes and all can be explained. The one right before the half, the time had expired, and I counted to five with the clock at "0:00" before the play got off. The refs made a huge blunder there. Then the pass was tipped, and went right into the hands of a Maine South reciever good for another touchdown. Just an all around bad game that New Trier didn't deserve to win, but if they meet again in the playoffs, I would bet money on New Trier winning if they are able to play up to their potential. I did the postgame show and produced it. The refs weren't good at all but New Trier's strategy was very questionable. It was obvious that we couldn't run the ball because of the great defense of Maine South and we kept running. Also almost every pass was a bomb instead of short passes to set up the long ones.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 12:38 AM) We're better off having Bobby Jenks throw with his left arm than having Damaso in the pen. hell you could pitch better than Marte right now.

El Duque Great column written by Buster Olney about El Duque.

El Duque has the mental disposition to be a closer. In fact i wouldn't be opposed to it.

you know how they used to say just say no to drugs. Ozzie needs to say "just say no to Marte."

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:30 PM) Sorry!! ehh how can i be mad when the sox are 3 OUTS AWAY FROM WINNING THEIR FIRST POSTSEASON SERIES IN NEARLY 90 YEARS!

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:28 PM) I checked it. N-Sync was on. Oh well, stuck at work now until the end. ehh. I forgot those no-talent assclowns still were alive until you mentioned them.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:26 PM) btw I hate ESPN Radio here in LA. They pulled the game coverage to do angels pregame. How dare they!!! It doesn't start for 34 min. Im pretty sure they have it on Radio Disney. The other LDS games were on Radio Disney in Chicago. 5-3!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(AirScott @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:23 PM) anyone know the name of the song just playing? it's either that Song by Neil Diamond that they use or it's Tessie by the Dropkick Murphies. It's on MVP 05.

AJ Doubles. Do they have an MVP of the LDS or not?

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:04 PM) Duque was unbelievable today. One of the best pitching performance out of the bullpen you will ever see. right up there with Josh Beckett's 4 inning outing against the cubs in game 7 of the 03 NLCS.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:12 PM) So a baseball team shouldn't put their closer in to close out a one-run ballgame? I think Hermy should be closing.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:09 PM) Save the pen for what exactly? You go with whoever you think gives you the best chance to win. In case Hermy blows it. Than you have about 5 pitchers to pitch you in extra innings.

Ozzie must be Marte's b****.

QUOTE(rcpweiner @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:08 PM) Does Duque stay in? I mean ... he's used to throwing a s***load of pitches and hasn't slowed down? yes and than you put Hermy in the ninth. Save that pen.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:05 PM) Some unruly White Sox fans have found the ESPN camera. just wait till Boomer calls us the worst fans in teh world again.

We are going to win this game. That 6th inning was a momentum shifter and took all the air out of the red sox and their fans. There are just sometimes in sports after a play where you know a team will win the game and that was just it.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 05:04 PM) Tyler Knight is there best player, he is being recruited as a K, P, S and QB for college. ok thanks for the nugget. I knew that he was an excellent QB but i didn't know about all of the other positions.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 05:55 PM) He isn't even better than Jizzcan at this point. Vizcaino has been great in the 2nd half.
