White Sox Josh

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:24 PM) You want to bet he wont? I think the A's had a lot more to do with him likely not winning it than Ozzie did. Garland has a much better shot at winning it. With Halladay out now Buehrle is the only other SP in the AL that still has an ERA under 3. He WILL win 20 games this year. If Garland wins 23 or more he will win it.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:20 PM) Dear Mark, Sorry to hear your chances for winning the Cy Young just went down the toilet. Sincerly, Ozzie, Willie, and the Dominicans oh he will win it. don't worry. Great post though.

Paul Konerko is overrated. He is so worthless. He is a 1 tool player. I would rather have a guy like Overbay who can at least play defense and while isn't fast is a VERY SMART Baserunner. All he does is hit for power.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 10:14 PM) Buehrle deserves his fair share of the blame. I can't wait to see Ozzie leave him out there to die in order to keep the 6 inning streak. well he gets the ground ball and instead of just letting sweeney score uribe doesn't take the safe out. That ball hits the bag and was misplayed by Konerko. Man is this ugly defensively.

WTF IS GOING ON! f***ING s***TY DEFENSE! BUEHRLE IS NOT TO BLAME FOR THIS!

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) Dude, its the Royals. We can afford to empty the bench against these scrubs. um they are still a Major League team that have Major League bats on that team. You don't take anyone lightly. Case in point, 2003 White Sox vs. Detroit.

QUOTE(Beastly @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) The Tribune mentioned today that the White Sox could be interested in Scott Eyre or Jason Schmidt. Eyre would be a cheaper option than Schmidt, they say. They also discussed moving Chris Young among others for either of them. Thoughts on adding Scott Eyre? He is an Ex-Sox we let slip through our fingers in the Glover deal. ugh Gary Glover, please NEVER BRING UP HIS NAME AGAIN. OH WAS HE BAD.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 09:04 PM) Willie showing he has absolutely no baseball instincts yet again. That dumbass better not cost us any runs here. i think he is still thinking about he is the next Brian Roberts.

why the hell is harris starting tonight. he started last night. Ugh i hate these B Lineups that Ozzie puts out.

QUOTE(Pasqua's Mailman @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) Off-Topic.... Apparently Clement will be OK... never lost conciousness... sounds like good news. good. I didn't see it. Where did it hit him in the head?

i love watching lima pitch though. he is very entertaining to watch.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 08:20 PM) Josh ... I did not know if something was quoted on a Yahoo sports board, it's gospel. no it wasn't quoted there. it's from their news wire thing.

Is Jayson Stark smoking the wacky weed? Although i wouldn't be surprised if LaMar actually asked for that because according to everything i have read and heard about him he asks the moon in return.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 04:46 PM) Sure Josh, whatever you say. It's everybody else's fault but Shingo's. Why then, pray tell, is no one willing to throw even a marginal prospect the Sox way to ensure they don't lose him to anyone else? Step away from your computer, go out and get some fresh air, and think about it. ok no Shingo did not pitch well at the begining however he needed to have a chance to work himself out of it. Ozzie gave every opportunity to Koch to get himself to keep the closers role. This is a quote that is perfect about it. It's from Yahoo.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 02:11 PM) Actually no. The Giants, Marlins, D-Rays, and Sox all have black caps. So, I copy the player's layer and scan how the hat is fitting on his head. Buehrle happens to wear the cap the same as many so I put MB's layer under the other players layer and just erase the logo of the other team. Example, Buehrle under Schmidt, erase SF logo, Sox logo is already underneath. And if the color is a bit lighter or darker, I take the pencil tool with black ink and color in around the Sox logo. If the bill is in different spots, I might use the bill from the player but pencil around the bill and logo to give it the smooth, all-in-1 look. Griffey and Vizquel were hardest. Griffey because he had his hat juuuuust a little to the left and Vizquel because he had the turtle neck and the only other Sox player who has a turtleneck in the pictures is Count so I used Hermy's hat, Omar's face and neck, and Count's turtle neck. If the player doesn't have pinstripes, a la Schmidt, Vizquel, Huff, and Griffey, I erase the player's uni and use the uni of the player whose hat I am using. Marte in a marlins uni

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 01:09 PM) Shingo is not a replacement for Marte. IMO you have seen Shingo pitch in a White Sox uni for the last time. Contrary to Ozzie's and most peoples beliefs Shingo can get leftys out. They actually only hit .233 against him. IMHO Ozzie really screwed with Shingo's confidence with how he used him after the cleveland game.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 12:51 PM) oh my god if the sox actually ever got Vlad i think i would probably run up and down the street jumping around and making a complete ass of myself.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 12:06 PM) We are trying. No one wants to give us anything or Takatsu would already be gone. right because everyone wants Mesa and Baez. I believe that if this deal for Burnett happens than KW will probably talk to shingo and say "look homey, we just traded marte to the marlins and we need another reliever, if you report to charlotte than baring something very surprising happening you have a 99% chance to be called up very soon."

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 10:57 PM) Actually it's not all that hard. Hell I switched Hunter to a Sox jersey, Halladay to a Sox jersey and the toughest of all Vlad to a Sox jersey. do you still have that pic of vlad in a sox jersey? We can always dream ya know.

is that how they do that when someone is traded. Do they just photoshop the guys no uni on the original mug of him. for example. Joe Randa:

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 10:36 PM) EAT CHIT JEW ROYAL BISHES!!!!!!!!!!.....GIMME A HELL YEAH FOR THE OFFENSE...HELL GIMME A HELL YEAH FOR THIS TEAM!!!!!!!! thanks for jinxing us now vizcaino will go on to give up 9 runs with 2 outs.

can anybody make a picture with Burnett in a Sox uni.

QUOTE(Soxfest @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 09:44 PM) I will say a SD player will NEVER again get a no trade clause again....Nevin only cares about himself. and his family. My god this isn't just about himself. This is a decision that will affect his family. San Diego is a great city and he might've wanted to have his family be with him in San Diego.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 12:14 PM) Lol I traded him for kenny rogers in my fantasy league, I think both of us got the shortend of the deal at least you got the better of the deal. Wait you actually had Kerry Wood on your fantasy team? :headshake

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 24, 2005 -> 11:36 AM) Hmm, Mercker: 2 W, 1 L, 40.1 IP, 5.6 K/9, 3.15 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, .282 BAA Nice numbers, for a cheap price, I'd grab him.... those aren't good.
