Can you link us up please? Nevermind, I found it: http://www.suntimes.com/output/cubs/cst-spt-pierre19.html

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/colle...ack=1&cset=true This guy is a cancer wherever he goes.

I don't even want to think about how many balls would fly over Podsednik's head if he was in center field.

Well, if the Marlins go that route and move Miguel Cabrera to third base and put Blalock at first base, they would need another outfielder. Rowand, Marte, and a pitching prospect for Delgado?

Haha, this team is a joke. Is there anyway we can take back Chandler's contract?

Gotta love giving up 6 points on one possession. It makes me sick that 6'8" Sweetney has 100 times the inside game that 7'1" Chandler has.

I hope we don't waste anymore money on Timo. I'd rather just use Ozuna as a fourth or fifth outfielder.

I'd rather take my chances on Giles on a 3 year deal than Konerko on a 5 year deal.

Nothing. But what does that matter? His numbers are better than Konerko's. Brian Giles: .299 .413 .542 .954 Paul Konerko: .279 .349 .488 .837 I love what Konerko did for us in the postseason but give me Giles over Konerko any day of the week.

This is pathetic. Chandler is looking like a major bust. He can't go hard to the basket and he doesn't make his free throws when he does get fouled.

This is some ugly basketball. :puke

Haha, Duhon from center court for the 3-pointer!

I know. I guess I'd rather see that lineup though. I like Giles on a shorter, cheaper contract than Konerko on a massive 5 year deal. Giles is a better all-around hitter than Konerko.

I'm not sure but I think anyone who is suggesting Giles over Konerko would want to move Dye to first base and let Giles play right field and DH a couple times a week. Maybe bring Frank back to DH if he proves to be healthy. That lineup would look like this: Podsednik LF Iguchi 2B Giles RF Frank DH Dye 1B Rowand CF Pierzynski C Crede 3B Uribe SS Giles would be our lefty #3 hitter. He would not provide as much power as Konerko but his power numbers could go way up moving from PETCO to the Cell. His contract would also be cheaper and safer than what Konerko's likely will be. I agree with you though. This probably won't happen.

Exactly. If the rumor is true about Konerko wanting $75 million for 5 years, I'd rather have Giles in a second.

I'd rather have Giles at what he will cost than what Konerko is going to receive.

http://www.dailyherald.com/sports/whitesox.asp $75 million?

After seeing the ridiculous contract Eyre got from the Cubs for having one good season, I'd rather have Marte. At least Marte had three good seasons and only one bad one. Who would you rather have? Eyre for 3 years and $11 million or Marte for 3 years and $8.25 million? And Eyre got a $1.5 million signing bonus and a no-trade clause. :puke

Apparently, the Sox think Brian Anderson is ready to start in center field. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...ack=1&cset=true

I'm not too sure about trading for Thome after reading this: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/spor...407_mari17.html The Phillies want Felix Hernandez for Jim Thome? Okay. :headshake

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/5094612 What an awful contract.

Spacious RFK made Loaiza last season. Home ERA: 2.86 Road ERA: 4.71 Season ERA: 3.77
