Meh, I am not putting any more speculation into these rumors. I will believe nothing until the deal is DONE.

QUOTE(palesox38 @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 12:20 AM) I'm sure by now all of you have heard that the Sox are interested in Aubrey Huff, but according to Jayson Stark, that deal would also include Danys Baez. He also stated that the sox want to make that trade as well as trade for Burnett. I say do it. Many may say that it effects chemistry too much, but I think thats a little over-rated. It would be great to pick up Huff, Burnett, and Baez. Two potential blockbusters. What a statement that would be! Im iffy on this. Chuck Lamar overprices his guys and I think a deal with a bunch of MLB'er involved isnt too smart of an idea.

This really helped relieve tonights loss!

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 12:04 AM) This feels like the worst loss to me this year. We looked like little leaguers and could not hit JOSE LIMA!!! Ouch it was embarrassing... Why can't we save some runs for the game after we blow a team out? AGGGGGGGG I'm going to the game tomorrow too so I hope Garland can be the stopper like he always is.. but damn this one hurt me at least tonight... But to think positively, I got a free build-a-bear as the giveaway and it was for 14 and under, hah.. I smell BS. How did you get home so quick????

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jul 27, 2005 -> 12:02 AM) This is where Rowand comment about you comes in. If you think Overbay won't cost alot, you very, very mistaken. I use the word "too" as a precursor to being expensive, yet, not as much as what we all consider. Why are you so "attackative"?

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:59 PM) Chuck LaMaar is their GM. He's asking for a lot for Huff. I never said he wasn't. However, I don't want to know how much the Brewers would be asking for a young, very good lefty 1b in Overbay. I honestly don't think it will be too expensive. Look at what we thought Randa would cost. And also consider how expandable Prince Fielder makes Overbay...

Anyone else think Ozzie will thorow out another BS lineup tomorrow? 1.) Rubber game of the series. 2.) Gives some back to back days off. 3.) Gived Gooch 3 games off since the off-day on Thursday.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:57 PM) Exactly correct. Chuck Lamar. Notoriously difficult to deal with. Thank you for the confirmation!

GAME.

Damnit. I thought that was a goner. That was one helluva "STRETCH!" by Hawk!

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:53 PM) Overbay will cost us more than A. Huff would, I guarantee that. Huff is a FA after this season, and Overbay still has a few more years before he's a FA. Also, Overbay has turned into a fan favorite in Milwaukee. If we do trade for Milwaukee, can we get their announcing crew also? Those guys are great. I disagree. Numerous trades have been nixed wit hTB because their GM, whose name escapes me, pushes the price of his guys too much/ Can some one confirm?

Well, now that I am done eating my sandwich and I have thought about this: SoxFan1 I apologize for my stupid remarks. I still do not like Ozzie starting ALL the bench guys in 1 game but once more, I apologize for my over-reactant comment. :banghead

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:43 PM) You know what, I hate to be like this but to be honest you have no f***in clue what you're talking about. I value your opinion but your a f***ing dumbass! Just kidding man.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:40 PM) My brother lives in Switzerland, and tomorrow's game will be shown there on their ESPN. I know the White Sox national broadcast record leaves a lot to be desired. How about their international broadcast record? 0-0, no one out side of Chicago really gives a s***. We are hated by many and disrespected by sports networks.....

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:38 PM) Stop bringing what up? That we are 30 games over .500. It doesn't mean s*** at the moment. Tonight we played like a team 30 games under. Why? Because Ozzie put in all the s***ty players on the universe! "No, it doesnt make my points moot because if your going to tell me that just because we are 30 games up this team doesnt need improvement? BS. Overpay for Overbay."

OVER f***ING PAY FOR OVER f***ING BAY. PERIOD.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:34 PM) Why? Because it makes all your points moot? 1.) No, moot is spelled correctly. 2.) No, it doesnt make my points moot because if your going to tell me that just because we are 30 games up this team doesnt need improvement? BS. Overpay for Overbay.

This was a horrible game tonight and what Ozzie has done with lineups so far this season is unacceptable. Absolutely horrible. Willie, Ozuna, and Ozzie cost us this game.

QUOTE(Brian @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:32 PM) ANd yet we are 30 games over .500 and 12 games up in the division. I hate it as much as anyone when our B line up is in, but Ozzie probably figured Buehrle would pitch a LOT better and a lot of offense would not be needed. I'd be more upset if we had this line up out there and we were in first by 2 games. STOP BRINGING THAT UP! See, Willie just blew another play!!!!!!!

QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:28 PM) We'll be glad Ozzie rests guys come playoff time...resting not only leads to fresh starters but also to warm bench players. Sucks this one got away from us, but it's a grueling season and the Oz man needs to keep his eye on the big picture. Get outta here. These are fit, Major League baseball players. If they can't take it, get off the field. Yipeee, Jizz walks the lead-of guy.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:24 PM) These players don't need this much time off. This is baseball. Exactly. You get payed to play. Oh yippeee, Jizz is in! EDIT: Really good note though: Gload in for Pk!

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:23 PM) Listen, I know I'm the negative one on here, but how in the f*** could anyone stick up for Ozzie tonight? I dont f***ing know. If you defend Ozzie for putting out a s***tyy lineup and an even more horrible defenseive infield.......you = dumbass. Think it through. Now, I know tomorrow, everyone, cough kalapse cough, will be throwing it in my face that I conceded the season yadda yadda yadda. Bulls***! This is unacceptable!

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 11:20 PM) You're sounding like me now!!! Like I said earlier, if we miss the playoffs by one game, these are the types of games we'll look back on and want to strangle Ozzie for. THE SOX HAVE NOT LOCKED UP A PLAYOFF BIRTH YOU DUMBASS! I agree. You get payed to play. You play to win. You dont just field a s***ty team because you want to give somebody an off day. If your tired and dont want to play 162, then quit baseball. You get payed to play 9 innings for 162 games. And if you make it to the playoffs, 9 innings in every one of those game. If we get a 3-0 in the playoffs, will Ozzie throw out Timo and Willie and Ozuna in game 4. He better not. Common f***ing sence!
