QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 03:49 PM) But, I think this would be a good move. Danks and Floyd will be going over their season best IP this year as well and I don't think that should affect them. Duchscherer might just win the Cy Young and he'd be a great addition. We'd be 5 deep with a solid guy like Vazquez at the back of the rotation. I'm not sure what I'd give up for him. Getz, Richard, Broadway, and Crede (maybe?)... So you called me out earlier about this deal and now think it's a good idea.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 04:30 PM) I never said you didn't trust it. But to give up Contreras (arm questions) for Duchscherer (arm questions) wouldn't make much sense. Makes sense to me. The guy is about 38 years younger than Jose and can actually pitch well.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 03:20 PM) So give up on a SP in whom you don't trust his arm for another? Good logic. Where did I say I didn't trust Duchscherer's arm?

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 03:20 PM) So give up on a SP in whom you don't trust his arm for another? Good logic. I think it'd be a solid pickup. Like Tony said though, we'd probably have to give them a lot. Contreras, Paulie, Cabrera, etc. Why in the world would any team want Contreras with his huge contract? Or even Paulie? They're trying to unload salary and pick up young, cheap players.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 03:17 PM) I like the fact the Sox are looking for an upgrade in the rotation, but I don't like that it's Duchscherer. 1.His value has never been higher. Ever. Not the most ideal time to trade for a guy. 2. I know people think Beane "gave away" Harden to the Cubs, but it was a solid package, the Cubs were just deep enough to be able to trade pieces that didn't hurt their club. 3.Duch is at 108 IP right now. The last time he threw that many innings was in AAA in 03. I don't know if I trust his arm in the 2nd half. Do you trust Jose's arm in the 2nd half? I sure don't.

Any chance they could use an over-priced 1B with diminishing skills and no speed?

I just peed myself with glee.

Heh. Good point.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 01:08 PM) Green not necessary? Didn't want to be called out on stereotyping.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 10:52 AM) Let me just say, "What the f***, New Yorker?" At least we can finally confirm that Obama is not Muslim because if he was then he'd be bombing embassies or something because of this.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 14, 2008 -> 12:32 PM) Why is Javy Vazquez not being worried about and not being replaced by AAA pitching? His season has been pretty similar to Contreras. He actually can throw more than 1 type of pitch and he's under the age of 50.

This one's ridiculous but it made me chuckle.

Reggie Bush

I'm definitely out. I'm tailgating early with about 20 friends and then taking in the game. It's my bachelor party. If anyone wants to stop by our tailgate and say hello just PM me and I'll give you my cell #.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 07:33 AM) I really enjoyed the movie Tigerland Just finished watching it. Great flick. Thanks for the recommendation.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 06:28 PM) This team is fine, with the exception of Paul Konerko. And our 5th starter.

I don't know if they track this but he has to lead the AL in avg LOB/9 as well as GIDP/9.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 04:24 PM) Ozzie wasn't great today, but the execution by these guys was f***ing awful. This is just one game, but Sox fans should be scared to death regarding Jose's outlook for the 2nd half. I was criticized for having zero faith in Jose. He is absolutely brutal.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 04:22 PM) PK is 0-5, 7 LOB, and an error. What a s***ty player. But he had 1 good game this month. How dare anyone complain.

Another battleground state looking bad for McCain.

Best regards to his family.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 11, 2008 -> 09:33 PM) Has anyone ever been to Arlington to see a Rangers game? I've always wanted to see the Sox play there as I go to atleast 1 road series a year, sometimes 2, but they always play in July and I don't enjoy 100 degrees at all. I expected 100 every day in early August last year when I went to see us play in KC, since that was what the weather report gave, instead it was 65 the first 2 days with rain. I've been there once. Pretty nice park in the middle of nothing.

Anyone ever play "pinners"?
