Overeasy is how I like my eggs.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:50 PM) He gets our first round draft pick. So you see J4L, all of those wins in the last week didn't mean anything anyway to our draft position.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:49 PM) At work.. Fan anyone summarize what cowley says at four on the score. Much appreciated. Let's see, he'll start out with a couple of news bits that were reported hours ago by other people. Then he will move on to some stupid jokes about people he doesn't like, because they look down on him like the pseudo-journalist that he is. Then he will finish by slamming the Sox for being cheap in some form or another.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:42 PM) Dunn is gonna sign for $4/56M. That's some great work by the Sox brass. Wow, that is less than what was supposed to be his starting point.

Lazy? I'd settle for a single job offer.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:38 PM) But not during free agency when the guy basically goes to the highest bidder. This is a very unusual way the White Sox have used to acquire high priced guys really since the first couple of seasons of JR's ownership with the exception of Belle. They went after Fisk and Bannister, but since then, they really haven't been very active with the most expensive FA. Trades don't happen with the highest bidder?

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:30 PM) I disagree, as this is a situation where they went head-to-head with other teams financially to land a player. They go financially head to head with teams in trades too. Not only is there an existing contract to take on, but there are players involved. As we have seen in other trades, a team can outbid the Sox for a player on the trade market, just like they can on the free agent market.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:27 PM) It would be the first major FA signing, with another team's FA, since Albert Belle. There were some decent names signed as free agents, Dye being one, but he was in the bargain bin. It would be the first time KW shelled out more than $20 million for another guy's FA ever. Unless you actually go back and include moves like Rios, where they essentially signed him to a 5 years 60ish million dollar contract by getting him off of waivers, or the Peavy deal, where they not only assumed his contract, but gave up players to do it. Sure it sounds better when you make it sound bad, but the reality is that the Sox have brought in lots of big dollar guys, both from the inside and outside.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) Cowley: Yes, the Adam Dunn talk is very legit, and building steam. The internet must be working in his moms basement again.

Zero good coming out of this thread right now

Why?

Unbelievably tough

Superfast

Qatar is what BS wanted to post about, but was too slow

Pretty sure that doesn't make sense

nooooooooooooooooooooo

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 12:16 PM) Right now the White Sox bullpen consists of Santos, Sale and Thorton. There are worse ways to start a bullpen

Lovely idea if you ask me

Just slow down boys

Harm principle is stupid

Ava Gabor would faint too

Possibly a whole new meaning to "blow me"

Nothing is as sad as snowman on snowman violence
