  1. Is there a way to set up a text alert somehow that will tell me that we officially obtained him?
  2. QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 04:47 PM) We can be semi-objective when we look at the dropped third strike controversy can't we? It's not AJ's fault that the ump made a bad call. He hustled. No cheating involved.
  3. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 04:31 PM) ......says the guy who runs the "IMPEACH KOTSAY" fanclub...... lol. Of course I want him out of here and think he's terrible. I won't belittle him in public for it. I'd rather belittle Ozzie for wanting him as our DH and playing him 5 times a week.
  4. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 04:24 PM) The point is that Manny is replacing Kotsay (hopefully), thus we chant "Man-ny" when Kotsay comes up so he realizes he is about to lose his job. Sounds hilarious to me. I hope it happens. It actually seems like a douchey thing to do. I'm no fan of Kotsay's but he didn't do anything to deserve that type of treatment from the fans. He tried his best and was put into a position to fail.
  5. QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 04:00 PM) I don't know what "plan" book you are reading from, but that ain't my plan for our Sox this weekend. Don't worry about him. He expects us to lose every night.
  6. QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) This is going to take till Tuesday folks. Maybe after a Dodger loss tonight things start moving a bit more briskly.
  7. QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:43 PM) 500 posts since I left for work this morning, do we know anything besides the Sox claimed him? nope
  8. QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:39 PM) I honestly feel that the Sox are missing just a piece or two to be a contender for the whole thing. As the team is now, they might be able to catch up the Twins. With Manny, the chances are better, and they could even make it deep into the playoffs. I just look back at the 2005 team and wonder what it had that this team doesn't. I'm not saying it's the DH thing...that's only part of it. Hopefully Manny can make a big difference, because I think that's what the Sox need. Hopefully Manny and a refreshed Putz and Thornton is all that it takes to get us over the top.
  9. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:38 PM) I believe that's actually what Alexei prefers as the pronunciation of his name. I wonder why none of the announcers ever call him that.
  10. Why does Gene Honda still call him Al-i-say when announcing Alexei?
  11. Any chance KW gets impatient and sweetens the deal in order to get Manny here asap? He would really come in handy this weekend.
  12. QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:26 PM) Or at least don't give up any player in our system who has a chance to be a MLB standout. Why would you even think this is possible? Our minors are pretty much filled up with garbage. The few good players we have can't be traded.
  13. QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:26 PM) That is a pointless reason to keep Kotsay around. Viciedo will be up in September, and you are going to worry about having a backup 1B for 1 friggin' game? I love it when you analyze.
  14. I wonder what the Twins clubhouse is like knowing we're getting Manny.
  15. QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:23 PM) Because the media and fans know "Manny is Manny."
  16. QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:22 PM) Ozzie says f*** a lot ... To Sox fans.
  17. QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:18 PM) I find it so ironic that you want the Sox to win with class yet you are so in love with Ozzie. Most fans outside of Chicago would call him a classless jerk. *this post has been voted Post of the Year
  18. QUOTE (KipWellsFan @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:14 PM) Would we have to trade actual players of value for this goof? Probably only Konerko.
  19. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:11 PM) You're right, I was making a lineup as if I were the manager, not Ozzie.
  20. Come on haters. You're telling me that when Manny launches a 420 foot bomb to dead center, while giving it his patented stare, you won't be going bananas?
  21. I'd almost rather have Rios bat 2nd. He's got speed and hits a lot of singles.
