QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 03:00 PM) I thought his contract was 3M a year ....and it is not your money is it? And what were Randa's s the last few years? Its a two year deal at $3 million a year. It might not be my money, but it might mean someone else either would not have gotten signed, or someone else might have gotten traded, as we added $10 million in payroll this year. I have no idea about Randa, I was talking about Vinny.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:51 PM) Convince me he is not better than Crede and I will back off. Or convince me there is someone out there at 3B we can get better than Vinny (be reasonable now). If Randa continues to play well, I have no probs, but I do not see that happening. And 3M per year for 2 years is not that bad. Again, we can always make the Nationals pick up some of that salary by giving them a mid tier prospect. Was it his .218 ave or .281 obp last year away from Coors that makes you think that? He might be better, but he is not $6 million better than Joe away from Coors Field.

LET'S GO BULL!!!!!

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:44 PM) Castilla currently batting at 0.500 with the Nationals.....too early but not bad Damn dude, you are going to rival Anthrax with that man-crush you have for Vinny.

4 Kings, 5 Queens, 70 Presidents, and more...

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) Is it raining up there as well? Bad enough to call the game? Sun is out downtown.

Halfway home, the game is now official

Runner is on 3rd now, hopefully he goes back to the wind up.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:11 PM) mariotti is a c*** Easy with the wording there... that's not exactly board friendly.

QUOTE(MurcieOne @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:11 PM) I think AJ and Paulie should race for charity.... it would be an all day event.... They could participate in Seniors Run the Bases... and lose by a baseline.

BTW for those who liked to point out that we had only scored in 1 of 16 innings up until the 9th inning yesterday, that makes 4 out of the last 5 innings we have scored in now. That is all.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 02:02 PM) As good as you think Cabrera is.

Ouch.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:58 PM) "You cheered in the stands, I laughed in the press box." A direct diss towards White Sox fans. What a f***ing asshole. Can he not even wait til they're losing to write this s***? I mean, it was a win. As it has been said, the only stat that counts is W's and L's... It's just sad. It may sell papers, but it's classless and will hopefully give the sun-times the negative reputation that they deserve for allowing a writer to basically call a whole fan base idiots for cheering on a win because he seems to know that the final outcome will be bad. Which is funny, because he never goes to Sox games. It is well noted that he has been two Comiskey one single time ever.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:59 PM) You see his average away from coors? His contract is bad too. WINNER!

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:53 PM) Who can we get at the trade deadline for 3B? If Pods and Everett play solid and Frank comes back strong, we do not need anything else except a 3B. Vinny Castillo available? That is not even funny.

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:51 PM) Willie eff anything up yet..?? He made a nice play getting a cup of gatorade for Ozzie. Real MVP-type moves on that one.

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:49 PM) Bulls aside: Curry is out indefinitely. Eeep. How this team keeps winning is beyond me. If Skiles isn't coach of the year, Frank Thomas is a skinny 98 pound white boy.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:44 PM) 2 outs and he's in scoring position, why steal? Were they not holding him on? Pods said at Soxfest how stealing 3rd base was lost art, and how often times it was easier because of the huge jumps you can get, and how the pitcher pays less attention to you there, because they believe you are less likely to try it. Also with Pods on 3rd instead of first he could score on a drop 3rd strike on on a WP/PB instead of just getting into 3rd and being stranded there.

QUOTE(MurcieOne @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:43 PM) Get used to typing that. that

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) Not to jinx this, but why did we ban the Indians troll before this series?? It was our lucky banning

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:39 PM) ATTENTION: Rather than tell you what Crede did...someone take a stab at it. Hit the ball 506 feet onto the FUNdementals deck?

AJ DOES YARD WORK!!!!

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Apr 7, 2005 -> 01:30 PM) Does it seem like the wind blown homers are looking less likely like last season??I know its maybe too early to tell but they aren't exactly flying out of the field so far. Talk to me in June. Right now the prevailing winds have all been in, as it should be in the end of winter into spring. When the winds shift to south and west, we will see if things change. Right now that east wind of the lake is cold, fast, and knocking down everything in sight.

Nice start by the big man .
