Good to see we have a couple of guys who might be able to contribute down the stretch.

We are not bringing a SS in here next year. Alexei is still ultra cheap. Plus we aren't going to block Nix and Getz.

Is there an award to be the first person to condemn a player as worthless that I don't know about? The guy hasn't even seen a spring with us, and he is already getting thrown off of a cliff? Geesh. Its not like the rest of the team is hitting worth a s*** anyway.

it is bad when my 12 year old can do my power point homework. Glad to have the help. Now if she could only right my thesis..lol

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 07:53 PM) And "Stupid denials" is exactly the point. They're rejecting a certain percentage as a standard policy and then fighting a little bit whenever the person challenges, and hoping they wont' challenge it. That's the point of this whole thing. Um, you don't think the government does the same thing in their programs? My dad is a DAV who has gone through this same crap in other agencies, including the VA and Social Security. He had to hire an attorney who took 1/3 of his back payments to get his SS money, because the government had rejected him for no reason. He has also had to go through the VA appeals process numerous times over the years.

QUOTE (Stocking @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 05:05 PM) Anyone remember the Metrodome Batboy tackle of the guy running on the fieldaround three years ago? You can youtube it, well I meet the other dolt who ran on the field with him. Funny character, turns out all they got was a $25 fine, banned the rest of the season, and were dropped off at home. Isnt running on the field a severe crime in Illinois? Oh and that Batboy owned him. You can be charged with a felony because of the Ligues now.

It felt good to not be the team self-destructing today. It was also nice that we took advantage of those situations, which is an improvement over lately.

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:41 PM) Hope nobody got hurt there - but I sure do enjoy watching the wheels fall off a team that isn't the White Sox for a change. Hawk was dead on... Theriot was left out to dry.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:39 PM) bahahahaha oh my god. It's like looking in the mirror. No joke. Talk about awful.

I don't know if it was different or not, but that was a long swing.

Have a debut, kid.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:31 PM) I've long said I like Carlos Torres. More than most and he's now got a 3.86 ERA on the season (albeit just a few games). Still, he's got a shot and I look forward to seeing what he does as he gets more comfortable. He could be a really nice 4th/5th starter, imo. And every team could use some of those (especially at his price...ie league min). If they can convince him to throw strikes, he will be effective.

That was quick.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:19 PM) it's amazing how republicans can push a word or phrase like "death panels" and "indoctrination" and it's just all over the place in a day. And the dems can't even get people to understand what the f*** a public option is. They don't have a Hope of making that Change.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:26 PM) +1, he should realize that he has a better chance at walking than actually making solid contact. Most hitters aren't going to square up Guzman. But in a situation where he couldn't find the strike zone with GPS, why help him out?

"so now that the search for Jason Gage's penis has been completed, scientists will now move on to trying to find other mythical creatures, such as Big Foot and the Loch Ness Monster."

Wise killed that AB by swinging at ball three. I wish he would have just sat there with the bat on his shoulder until strike two.

Guzman in, and Kotsay is PR.

Way to make them pay 3-0

QUOTE (knightd1 @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:09 PM) i feel bad for him..omg you are in the wrong place...

Boy its nice to see someone selfdestruct defensively other than us.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:07 PM) I think Gordo just read your posts about what to do with the outside pitch. Some guys are natural pull hitters, but guys like AJ and Gordo have to go the other way to be effective.

QUOTE (smalls2598 @ Sep 3, 2009 -> 03:06 PM) Nice game, Torres. 0 walks, very impressive There is the key to this kids success. He has decent stuff, but not enough to pitch over extra base runners.
