If the Sox traded for Peavy two months ago, where would they be in the standings now.....

QUOTE (Special K @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 03:31 PM) In the past 4 years Colon has thrown roughly 250 innings, that's the equivalent of a little over 1 season. That's the kind of shape I am referring to when considering signing a guy. And pitchers who look like Colon is not the norm in baseball, that is why people do make a big deal about guys like Wells (whose own career was cut short thanks to his weight) and Sabathia. But weight isn't even the issue, I'm just making the point that sinking money into rehab projects like Colon and Garcia is a waste of $ and should not be done if your GM is going to spend that kind of money on those guys and then cry about salary restraints. David Wells pitched for 20 years. I would hardly call his career shortened by his weight problem.

That chat is weird. I just logged in and you can still see everything Buehrle gt Wood, Flash, and SoxAce said 2 hours ago.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:13 PM) lol sounds about right. I consider Carbondale home now. The only time I ever go back to moms/dads is for White Sox/Bulls/Hawks games. If those teams didn't play in Chicago I'd never be back there. Carbondale will jump the shark for you about 3 months before graduation. I cant explain it now, it wont make any sense, but it happens. Still a great place to go back to, just not a place to stay Or you become a Townie, and you dont want that

Hm, I wonder if Hawk changes his tune in regards to the best duo he has ever seen?

Not as fun, but this was to my wife Me: Hey i need to ask you a question her: huh? Me: When are you going to let me tap that? her: what? Me: you read it right her: well tonite when i get home late LATE! Tomorrow until we pick up abby and most likely tomorrow night, saturday morning and looks like Sunday night! Honestly I did not expect that response. I love my wife

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 09:13 AM) Real funny kyyle. I dont have any sisters and my Mom is dead. Its not like you to totally bring down a thread like this. Now I am going to tuck my tail between my legs and walk away

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 08:57 AM) Keith wants me to loose the majority of any prospects that I have. No thank you. Maybe he should have been more clear in the opening post "Please do NOT try this on your Mom or Sisters"

This thread is also known as the "Reason I got divorced" thread

This dovetails nicely with J4L's giveup-on-everything column. Nicely done

I got the f*** out. Dad moved me to Carbondale, shook my hand, said good luck, and the rest is (hazy) history

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:52 AM) What do you mean?Are you asking if anyone saw The Haunting in the state of Connecticut or is the movie's name The Haunting in Connecticut...by the way,never heard of that movie:D Google is your friend http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0492044/

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 02:37 PM) OK. Like I said, it does make sense...change of scenary for two player still with some potential. And absolutely Pie would be an upgrade over Wise...If the Sox landed Pie, it would possibly mean Wise would be released. Pie is still quite young, but has been no better in baltimore since leaving the Flubs. Cub hype may have ruined him. HAHAHA, right

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 01:27 PM) Crede got hurt on a dive and jammed his shoulder so you never know if he would have been hurt with the White Sox, but who cares? One good think about Fields not being able to catch up to mediocre fastballs and Crede signing with Minnesota is we get to watch Gordon Beckham play baseball. No, Im pretty sure he would have. He has every year. It was the reason I was cool with the decision to let him walk

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 12:59 PM) Then that shows why we are a .500 team at best. Our baseball team had BA and Fields penciled in as starters and you think they were were basically nothing. Those are 2 positions on a team filled with trash. As far as Kenny. That's his job to evaluate players. GMs always need a crystal ball so to speak. He should have moved Josh in the offseason and signed Crede to a Twins' like deal. Or given it to Beckham to begin with. The few weeks in the minors probably didn't matter much to Gordon to start the year. His ability was probably there to begin with unless you guys think that month or so in the minors helped him a lot. And you said: But Crede was no sure thing and KW thought Fields was a potential all star so he wasn't going anywhere unless they got Cabrera or someone like that. If KW thought fields was potential all star, some other GM might have bit in the winter when teams are more apt to deal to make some changes. The same crede that had a cortizone shot in the past week? The guy who is DHing for the Twins? Thats just a great idea

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 12:52 PM) You don't think Fields could have been shopped last winter to get a much better prospect/player? As well as BA? Now they are scraps. In the offseason, Fields was taking over for Crede to the delight of all the Crede bashers. He was our starter with some promise. Now he's nothing but garbage on the trade market. You mean when both of their values were at an absolute low, with Fields coming off an injury year, and Brian Anderson coming off watching Wise taking CF down the stretch instead of himself? No, I dont think they could have gotten better prospects. Not at all

Ben Francisco going to the Phils just makes them that much better as well. The Phils are stacked, they were already scary, now they are over the top scary. Like Sylvester Stallone turn-my-hat-backwards over the top scary

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 12:45 PM) that made no sense I dont try and do that often
