No one said that about Frank, Frank is the one who is talking about swinging for the fences. Read this again.

LMAO! nice.... You can still put your PTC's in early if you like [/cheap plug for PTC]

I was just reading one of the Texas boards and they are pretty convinced that Rupe and Webster will be the guys that the Rangers pick. Anyone else heard anything?

I'll be at work

This thread needs to KILL or be KILLED

Yes unfortunately these guys have made their return to Comiskey. But you can still do your part, if you see them, tell them to sit the hell down and watch the damned game!

Doubtful. If he can't be signed he goes back into the draft and gets picked by someone in the top 5 who can afford him

Jose Valentin

What a f***ing idiot, someone needs to get that assholes ISP so that every victim can tear him apart for doing why he did.

Give Alomar a break on that play. He did the right thing by waiting to see if the ball was caught, there for not allowing him to score from 2nd. It was hard play to judge. If he didn't wait and took off at the 1st minute and the RF would have made the catch then you would be on here saying what a terrible mistake because he should have waited to see if he had made the catch. No no no, i meant the hit by the Indians that Maggs did a slide for that he didn't get to. I thought Alomar could have gotten there easily, but he pulled up and let Maggs run a mile for it The baserunning play by Alomar was the right play, no doubt. That is Maggs call. If Alomar gave up on it, it had to be either because he had no chance on it, or Maggs called him off.

The base running mistake of Lee, was matched by Milton Bradley so essentially it washed in the end.

But Bonds also is hitting WAY over 300 now (370 in 2001) and prides himself on taking walks. Frank is saying that he isn't going to take as many pitches anymore.

July 19th, Graffanino had the highest score with his 8 points, but no one picked him, The next highest score went to Crede with 7 and was picked by just cwsox. July 20th Frank Thomas led the onslaught with 15 points, and was followed by Ordonez with 12 and Graffy and PK with 9. The only picker of Big Frank was Rafacosta. July 21st Joe Crede had the highest score with his solo HR giving him 6 points, but no one picked him. The runner up and official winner was Magglio with 5 points, who was picked by cwsox and whitesox247.

Jose had the players doing the wave in the dugout

While I don't think Colon will be traded, any trade of him to SF would have to include Williams or Foppert, and I wouldn't mind having either of those studs in the black and silver. I bet if we traded him the deal as you said would involve one of those pitchers but also Pedro Feliz. He is a 3rd baseman, possibly allowing us to trade Crede to the O's for Ponson. Umm if we trade Colon away, we are not going to bring another another front line veteran. If Colon goes, this ship is being dismantled and put into dry dock until at least 2004. I don't consider Feliz a veteran. Yes he has been in the majors for 3-4 years but he hasn't played much at all, until this year. I was talking about Ponson.

If you also think about her "friends" for a second... the girl is 19, so resonably her friends are probably in the range of 16-25ish. Not exactly the most reliable source of information. And if the girl is the daughter of a billionaire, factor in jealousy etc... I don't count on them for much at all.

We have 13 games left against the Royals. As long as we are this close to them, we control our own fate. We just cannot afford to get back any further than we are now.

I just noticed that Miles is down to .305, isn't that 50 or 60 points under where he topped out when he was hot? Has he been in that big of a slump?

All I want to know is where CubKillais for this whole thread dedicated to him

There was no room for him!

So all of the things that made Thomas one of the most dangerous hitters of the 90's he is going to throw out the window and just be a home run hitter? No wonder he is hitting .230 with RISP, he has gone from trying to be a hitter, to trying to be Sammy. It looks like Frank has a better shot at 40 HR's versus 100 RBI's. To hear him saying these kind of things really upsets me. Why would he not go back to what made him an MVP?

His injury problems have started up again, just like I said they would. If he goes to KC, it is the beginning of the end for them.
