Gotta love the throwbacks!

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 26, 2008 -> 04:12 PM) That's like putting Omar Vizquel at DH and plugging in Dan Uggla. Haha thats great. I didn't really think about it when I first read through it. It certainly would be the other way around.

Here ya go

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jul 2, 2008 -> 10:55 PM) I'd like the lineup like this: 1. Cabrera 2. Pierzynski 3. Quentin 4. Dye 5. Thome 6. Konerko 7. Swisher 8. Crede 9. Ramirez I'd almost rather split up Thome and Konerko with Swisher. That way the sloths are stuck together on the base path

This is a very intriguing question. It's tough to say. When Konerko is at his best, his lack of speed really isn't a big deal. And with his track record he will most likely not be benched. But you never know with Ozzie. But I certainly wouldn't mind Thome and Konerko splitting DH from time to time and keep Anderson/Wise in center

have i ever mentioned how much i hate dotel?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 9, 2008 -> 06:12 PM) The question is why has he been made useless? He has a great glove and can hit with power, but has just sat. The answer is simple: the play of Orlando Cabrera and Alexei Ramirez over the past month Cabrera is batting .301 and Ramirez is batting .377 Uribe should get comfortable on the bench

Cabrera Pierzynski Quentin Dye Thome Konerko Crede Swisher Uribe I really like the way this lineup looks. Especially based on the current numbers these guys are putting up. Obviously the leadoff spot needs some more production, and you would think Cabrera is due to pick it up a little. Maybe Swisher in front of Crede. But I like our slow sluggers that are struggling (alliteration not intended) a little farther down. Clogs the bases a little less and gives Pierzynski, Quentin, and Dye a high number of ABs. Hopefully Ozzie sticks with this for a few games to see how it works.

QUOTE (The Critic @ May 8, 2008 -> 05:50 PM) His batting average is getting dirty. Sit him down before it hits .130. Poetic

What do you know? Joe Crede in the clutch....you gotta love it

Ladies and gentleman Jose Contreras. Glad to see this. Came out of nowhere

We do all this complaining about Thome against left handers and then he does something like that. Guess the day off wasn't so bad after all. Take that MLB

AJ reppin my sig this year. The man is on fire

Those extra hotdogs paid off for Uribe there...HR!

Javy says, "Here's a free pass, would you like another?"

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 06:54 PM) 98 pitches for javier Javy is always high on the pitch count with a high strike out total

thome is my homie!!!

Thank you. Thank you.

Thought it was worthy off its own thread after all the hullabaloo about Vazquez winning the job

Name change please....How about Swishin' Aint Easy

Ozzie officially announced Marky-Mark the starter for Opening Day. Apparently the confusion around Vazquez was that he said he could be the starter based on his performances. I am much more pleased witht this outcome http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws

1) I've played a few years 2) I'm feeling more of the head to head this year 3) I played in League 5, but I wanna try out head to head instead of roto 4) I can try to be a commish if needed.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 10:26 AM) I wish more media would grill Ozzie on this situation so we can get the truth. A scenario I see possible is like the movie "A Few Good Men" where Ozzie just goes off. OZ: You want answers? Reporter: I think I'm entitled to them. OZ: You want answers? Reporter: I want the truth! OZ: You can't handle the truth!! OZ: Look we play a game with outfield walls...those walls need to be defended..whose gonna defend them you??.....you Mr Marriotti? I pick the men to defend those walls...we live by words like honor and team work...you use them as a punchline. I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Brian and you curse the manager. You have that luxury.... I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a reporter who sells papers on my every move and then questions the manner in which I make them!! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to! Reporter: Did you tell Brian he could win the job in spring training just to turn around and hand it to Erstad. OZ: If I say Brian ain't playing then he ain't playing!!! Reporter: Did you tell him when he does play, you will put him in the least possible situation to succeed. OZ: You Fa**ot...I make the lineup!! Reporter: Do you Hate Brian Anderson Mr Guillen... OZ: I do the job they hired me to do. Reporter: That's not what I asked, Do you Hate Brian Anderson OZ: .*@$*&^@ Reporter: Stop blabbering and answer the question Do you Hate Brian Anderson.... OZ: &%$(*#^)*&)#(%$_)#%*)(*^)*(^_ *@$*&^@.... Reporter: ANSWER THE QUESTION MR GUILLEN...DO YOU HATE---- OZ: YOU'RE GOD DAMN RIGHT I DO!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You!! Post of the Year????

1) Roto 2) Medium I suppose 3) played before but don't remember my league 4) No thanks

QUOTE(Fourofakind @ Dec 14, 2006 -> 09:58 PM) Darin Erstad seems like a player Ozzie would love Looks like somebody saw this coming...
