White Sox Josh

I luv this quote.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'm gonna make this sign: Jermaine Dye- .263, 19 HR, 47 RBI, 8 SB, $4 Million. Magg$ Ordonez- .254, 3 HR, 13 RBI, 0 SB, $7.2 Million. Boo the hell out of him.

LR Vizcaino LR Cotts MR Shingo MR Damaso SU The Vulture CL Hermanson

Shingo and Jenks

Let's settle down. He had a bad outing. Pitchers do that. Let's face it the Indians for some reason have his number. If you take out the Indians games he has pitched in his era is a very respectable 4.08. How do you expect he would pitch after not pitching for 7 days. Plus he wasn't getting good footing on the mound because of how wet it was. Same with Marte to. JUST DON'T PITCH HIM AGAINST CLEVELAND!

My english teacher got married there.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 15, 2005 -> 11:46 AM) Josh any chance you can crank down that avatar? None of the other avatars slow up the computer when scrolling thru the posts as that one does. Just asking, thanks. you mean you don't like a picture of Jessica Alba being a Stripper?

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jul 15, 2005 -> 11:34 AM) Shingo has already been improving, although with less work. He's had a few good outings in a row. I'll go with Uribe. He's gotta dial it up offensively. I think he needs more work in more pressure situations. With Uribe he is just so streaky. He could easily hit .380 for August and than bat .200 for September.

I'm going with either Shingo or Aaron Rowand. Pierzynski should hit and probably will hit. IMHO Aaron will have a MONSTER 2nd Half. Shingo will be excellent in the 2nd half IMHO because he is already starting to turn it around.

QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 10:23 PM) 3 runs, bye bye! Offense Instant!

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) FWIW if you take away Viz's blowup where he took one for the team in April his ERA is 3.15 and if you take that Texas and the cleveland disaster out of Shingo's record it is 3.07. Vizcaino has been Brutal this year. For example 75% of Shingo's inherited baserunners don't score compared to Vizcaino's 30%.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jul 10, 2005 -> 10:49 PM) He's not a versatlie actor. That might be why, if he can only play the stereotype Italian mobster type and he's really kinda that way in real life, then it's not really a stretch. Can you name a movie where he doesn't play 'that' guy? Have you seen My Cousin Vinny? Hillarious.

QUOTE(UofIChiSox @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 10:58 AM) yesterday I cringed with Vizcaino in, but I was listening on the radio, and Rooney and Farmer pointed out the guys remaining in the White Sox bullpen: Kevin Walker Shingo Takatsu Bobby Jenks Some of you will argue that Takatsu should have been in, but out of the three guys above and Vizcaino, I still want Vizcaino to have the ball in a close game. I guess that means we need more bullpen help! :headshake

QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Jul 11, 2005 -> 08:54 AM) Really, how much more do we need to see that Vizcaino is not the long relief answer. I can not remember a game where he came in and didn't give up at least one run. Time for some sort of move involving him. Shingo is also not a long relief answer. no shingo should be in middle relief. He is not a long reliever. Hey Ozzie next time use Shingo instead of Vizcaino.

QUOTE(forrestg @ Jul 10, 2005 -> 06:30 PM) WAS there a reason Crede, and dye didn't play.. I would've put my best team on the field to win not the final game but the series. I was pleasantly surprized by TImo getting a hit and Konerko finally showing why he's an all star.. I don't get taking out the most effective pitcher Politte after doing his job he can go longer than an inning and a 1/3.. All star Homework for Ozzie: We need someone I don't care who that can strike out the opponents Cotts, Viscaiano, and the rest of the staff get 2 strikes on someone and can't get the job done. Ask the whitesox hitters what bad pitches and pitches they swing badly at so they can throw similar pitches to our opponents in the second half. Otherwise good luck Shingo should've been in there. When is Ozzie gonna learn? :headshake

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 08:31 PM) Yes, we know, we blow ass against the A's. Go ahead and vent, we all know you want to.... GO KC! WILLIE HARRIS IS A PIECE OF s***!

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 03:29 PM) If its that simple what's with his ERA over 6.00 and all the walks? Its not like he's pitching for Tampa. He's got a pretty good defensive infield in Washington. he had a 3.60 ERA last year before he got hurt. His career ERA isn't that bad. I believe it's in the low 4's.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 02:49 PM) that ops is as a corner outfielder where it needs to be higher though. yes but he is also a 5th outfielder. Do you expect that much out of him? Once sunday roles around Willie will be hoping on a bus to Charlotte.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) Awww... Couldn't we get Scott Podsednik's girlfriend in the shower instead?!? You know how the Flubs had Mia Hamm day, why don't the Sox have Lisa Dergan day.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 01:24 PM) When getting everyday playing time Willie was batting around .300ish with a good OBP... than Valentin came back from DL and Uribe was favored over Willie and Willie slowly declined but still was decent. no actually what happened was that Uribe was put at 2B and Harris took Rowands spot in CF. Rowand got screwed not Harris.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 12:53 PM) ^^^^^^^^^^^^ If we deal Chris Young for Day someone will die. the problem is that they are technicly trading for Preston Wilson. They are giving up the prospects for him at least. Wait is J.J. Davis still in the trade to Rockies.

What prospects would the Sox have to give up though? Colorado will be getting the Sox prospects and that will cost them more than just going out and getting Zach Day because the Colorado will be looking for prospects they would get for Preston Wilson from the Sox. I would assume they would want some good prospects. Just a prediction on how this would play out: Colorado Gets: OF Chris Young LHP Ryan Rodriguez Nationals Get: OF Preston Wilson White Sox Get: RHP Zach Day

QUOTE(drowninginflame @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 11:33 PM) Why else would you put: Timo Perez-stays Willie Harris-He gawn to charlotte or traded Kevin Walker-He Gawn to charlotte all scrubs this is how it is gonna play out.

QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 11:22 PM) Ozuna is one of my favorite players on this team just because of the way he plays and how useful he is to help rest the other players. He will play wherever u need him and he will get the job done. he is one of those guys who would play the game for free if he could. He does something positive everytime he is the game.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 8, 2005 -> 11:22 PM) In all due respect, I've heard a lot of crazy things on message boards, but saying that Timo is deceptively fast might be the most false statement ever. If anything, Timo is deceptively slow. Yes, he's a short guy who doesn't hit homers. Thus, people think he should be fast. However, he's incredibly slow for his size, and has well below MLB average speed. Did you see how slow he looked trying to stretch his hit into a double today? Get the piano off your back! Timo also is so slow that he has to play extremely deep in the outfield, which leads to poor range. thats what i meant. But he drives pitchers nuts even though the Scouting Report clearly says that he has OK speed at best. He is a smart baserunner.
