I typically start here and see what's being offered.

Ozzie will prevent us from winning this division.

With KC's loss we are now in sole possession of 1st place.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 05:14 PM) I'm glad we dumped Milledge. Now we just have to dump Teahen and we'll be all set. I understand where you're coming from but we can't field an all star team. We need solid backups and bench players and we have none except for Omar.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 05:12 PM) Why would you play Teahen in any game? Because we got rid of Milledge.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 03:08 PM) Jackson for Hudson will be an economic fail no matter what happens. That's the key. All thing being equal and I'd be fine with the trade. If Jackson has a breakout year then he's looking at 5 years and at least $70-75 million. And then we've still got the two giant elephants in the room that is Danks and Buehrle to worry about. And a farm in which Wite would be the team's top pitching prospect. And hes's garbage. So lets say we win it all this year, largely because of a monster year by Jackson. Is the trade still an economic fail? Winning the WS is a huge deal financially and I think our chances of doing that are much greater with Jackson. I just don't see us winning it this year with a Hudson in our rotation.

My goodness. What a f***ing joke.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 10:55 AM) When has that ever happened? Everytime he has been in the majors, he has basically been an everyday player. Spring training in Glendale. 2011

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 10:50 AM) Except for in what was his only full season, 2008, where he put up a .757 OPS against righties and a .671 OPS against lefties. He wouldn't be a full time player this year. He'd be a situational DH/PH. He seems to hit better with limited playing time.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 10:32 AM) What guy in our lineup would we actually pinch hit for using a RH power bat? We have 3 lefties, Pierre, Dunn, and Pierzynski. You're not going to want a RH power bat to pinch hit for Dunn anyway. Pierzynski, you're not PHing for because he's the catcher, unless the game is out of hand. And Pierre...let's just face it, Ozzie's not PHing for him with anyone in a close game, and I'm not sure he should anyway. You can't envision a scenario where an elite Loogy is on the mound late in the game and we need a good RH bat off the bench to hit for AJ or Pierre?

And Mark Kotsay was just one guy on the roster last year.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 09:35 AM) Well that's where some people will disagree with you. Indeed. I expected him to provide a pretty solid bat off the bench. Whereas with Lillibridge I don't.

Weather supposed to hold up for this one? (Please no lmgtfy links)

Justified was superb last night. Here's a great write-up by the AV Club.

Damn. At a client location this afternoon so won't be able to follow the game.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Apr 6, 2011 -> 03:09 AM) Did you watch Rubicon? The Killing has a very similar feel to it...sort of an overcast, hazy feeling to it...and it slowly builds and builds and builds....it took me awhile to get into Rubicon, but the payoff in the end was very good. I got the same feeling almost immediately with The Killing. No, I've not seen Rubicon.

QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Apr 6, 2011 -> 06:14 PM) Gambler's fallacy! Now that they've already lost 4 in a row, the odds of them losing another are the same as them winning one. The unlikely streak is only unlikely before it starts. I love you.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 6, 2011 -> 06:05 PM) Dunn saying he could've pinch hit today and wants to play tomorrow . Excellent idea. Perhaps we can get Jake here in time as well.

Please stay healthy all year, Carlos.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Mar 30, 2011 -> 12:08 PM) I'm convinced these two twin babies know exactly what they are saying to each other.... See more funny videos and TBT at Todays Big Thing. Michael Chiklis & Patton Oswalt re-eneactment

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 6, 2011 -> 03:51 PM) I wish the half of Soxtalk that gave up on 2011 5 innings into today could be banned. Go start your own message board where everyone has to be positive 100% of the time. Oh wait they already have one called WSI.

CARLOS!!!
