Felix

Cooper was under contract for another year anyway..

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Nov 4, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) I think the Eagles would have a worse record with Farve than McNabb. McNabb brings more to the table, and Im not actually sure Farve would be that great in the Eagles offense. SB Far from it. McNabb has been hurt this year, so his scrambling has been limited. With Farve, the team would be much better, and probably atop the NFC East.

QUOTE(FlaCWS @ Nov 4, 2005 -> 04:47 PM) Piazza could come relatively cheap too. Not sure which Piazza you are talking about, but if its Mike, I highly doubt he'd be cheap.

The Widge returns!

If the Angels get Manny, then the Red Sox will go for Konerko. Either way, one of the two teams will overpay him in the FA market.

This is a huge improvement over those two

good call

Its nice, but wouldn't it be better if it actually showed his face?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Nov 3, 2005 -> 10:53 PM) Raul Casanova is the superior defensive catcher. And Burke plays two positions

Still curious as to why he wasn't called up in September, but thats all in the past. I do with him luck in Texas though.

QUOTE(MattZakrowski @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 09:43 PM) I understand New your and New Jersey going pro-Jeter, but Utah just seems so random. If I knew of this poll, I would have voted "no" for NJ :|

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Nov 3, 2005 -> 04:30 PM) To me it sounds like Ozzie thinks PK is getting resigned by the Sox, and he doesn't like it, IMO. I think its more Frank than Paulie, although I might be wrong.

I'm sure it was more than that, but if not, your teacher is a moron.

Your sentences are extremely choppy, there isnt really any rhythm. Thats likely why you got a C (I couldn't really read past the second line.. too painful)

I believe he was whining about playing time, but I cant really remember. There was a whole thread on it way back when, but the search engine is disabled, so I can't find it :|

QUOTE(mike12345 @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 06:27 PM) Nomar possibly?? he doesnt fill the outfield void, but he would be relatively cheap. Cheap? Which Nomar are you talking about?

None, other than Konerko, really interest me.

well, in my mind (not Ozzie's, but still), Cotts is good enough against lefties for that to work

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 05:39 PM) What is Timo's contract status? something ridiculus like 1+ million for next year through arbitration, although I dont know for sure. My roster for next year (no particular order, started out alphabetically, but then stopped): SP Mark Buehrle SP Jose Contreras SP Freddy Garcia SP Jon Garland SP Brandon McCarthy SP/MR El Duque MR Neal Cotts MR Dustin Hermanson (if he misses the year with his back, then Jeff Bajenaru) MR Bobby Jenks MR Cliff Politte MR Luis Vizcaino C AJ C Widger 1B Konerko 1B Gload 2B Iguchi SS Uribe 3B Crede UTIL Ozuna UTIL Harris LF Podsednik CF Rowand RF Dye OF Anderson DH Thomas Thats off of the top of my head, there are probably little things I'd switch around (such as Harris), but in general, thats what I'd like to see.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 05:30 PM) Don't get me wrong, I do like the idea of Gload on the bench...I just start to worry about roster spots. This year, we simply didn't have room for Gload...especially since he could only really play 1 position. The reason we traded for Blum instead of using Gload was that we needed an extra backup guy who could back up 3rd or short, especially when Crede's back was hurt and we didn't know how he'd be affected. (turned out to be very little once he got his swing straight & his hand healed). I think there probably should be room for Gload next year, but I think the fact that Anderson can play all 3 outfield positions quite well and therefore give 4 guys extra rest makes him more useful than Gload. Timo likely won't be here, and Blum has already filed for FA. Two spots right there.

I believe it already was used, but I'm not 100% sure.

Is there something wrong with having Gload as a DH next year if Frank goes down? I mean, he's no where near the production of Frank, but he's much more than Brian Anderson.

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 04:52 PM) Because the sox aren't the red sox, cubs, or yankees. Using that logic, the Indians aren't either.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 04:55 PM) I totally disagree with you. It may be one injury, but it's going to be a Grant Hill type injury. One that will never go away and will plague him for the rest of the career. Remember how Griffey was injury plauged? And are you talking about the same Grant Hill that had a great year last year?
