QUOTE(danman31 @ Aug 2, 2006 -> 11:18 PM) I was thinking the same thing about Mizzou. The game in Columbia looks very winnable now. Bah KU beat both these teams last year....were going to the big 12 championships.

I want to drive the bandwagon, but i just don't believe we have a chance, due to our pitching. Give me a 5.5 game lead by the end of the weekend.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 31, 2006 -> 12:00 PM) Bombs away Levine now is reporting we are interested in Latroy Hawkins. I would take Latroy, not WOOHOo, but better than nothing

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2006 -> 11:38 AM) Why wouldnt they do a deal like that? Vaz belongs in the NL, especially the NL central. He could be a middle of the rotation guy in that division. You trade Vaz for someone, a reliever like Lidge, then move BMAC into the rotation and we already improved a ton. agreed 150 percent. Lidge, MacDougal, Thornton, Jenks, Riske WOW

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Jul 31, 2006 -> 11:33 AM) rotoworld: The Houston Chronicle's Richard Justice reports that Astros owner Drayton McLane has ordered GM Tim Purpura to trade Brad Lidge. The Rangers are the team getting mentioned in connection with Lidge, but if he has to go, there will be more interested parties, starting with the Mets and Red Sox. The Astros could turn over closing duties to Dan Wheeler if they move Lidge. Let's all sing a song ready: Every contender gets better, gets better but the White Sox. Sitting on our hands is nice, when you want to play golf in october.

There the Admiral....the admiral club and go to the admiral

QUOTE(Disco72 @ Jul 31, 2006 -> 10:30 AM) Odd, the poll is almost 70/30 for "yes, make a deal" but the posts are almost 70/30 on "stand pat." I don't know if there is an impact player out there right now that will make a difference. This is the most talented Sox team in my lifetime (of just over 30 years). They can hit, pitch, and play defense...even if they aren't doing 2 of the 3 well right now. Making a move just to keep pace would be silly. I don't see why the national media loves this deal so much. If the Yankee pitching wasn't so horrible to begin with, it wouldn't be an upgrade at all. Lidle in the AL is worse than any of our poorly performing pitchers...but its pathetic that he's an upgrade over the 6-7+ ERA guys they were running out there. The Yankees have a great offense, but not great defense and not great pitching. The Sox are still a better team and need to play like it. you don't know what is available at this point.

I hate the fact that Trader Ken is silent now!!

Im 2-0 in my last 2 days of gamethreads....cmon ill take it all on my back. Hit Chen and get Javy out after 5!!!!

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 10:09 AM) Peavy. that would be dreamy

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 10:15 AM) 3 different spellings of his name in this tread, and not one is right. It's MacDougal. That is really funny stufff haha

I am still undefeated and started the huge game thread(thanks gload) lets start the winning train. tooooooooooooooooooot

I told you my game thread would start the mojo going let me start tomorrow also!!

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 28, 2006 -> 08:52 PM) I know I'm negative by nature, but was I the only one worried Terrero would rob that? of course that was everyone's thought

hi ho hi ho its swinging for the fences we go.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 28, 2006 -> 08:05 PM) Welcome to the joys of pitching at SafeCo with an amazing defense behind you. Jim Parque could have been effective there. could javy?
