QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 04:15 PM) Rambling about Nevin/Ponson deal so far.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 04:14 PM) It seems as if the Marlins fans are enamored with Anderson. They are willing to give up Eric Reed for him. Is Eric Reed any good? I think he is their AA OF?????

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 04:01 PM) 70 ABs vs. LHP .343 AVE .395 OBP .557 SLG 24 H 9 2B 2 HR 20 RBI 8 BB 5 K In a a season where he has overall been a huge disappointment, those numbers vs. LHP are ridiculous. That will be very huge against guys like Santana.

QUOTE(AirScott @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:59 PM) yeah, other than Ortiz, Ramirez, Damon, Varitek, Nixon, Renteria and Mueller, they REALLY have nobody offensively. Hmmmm, uuuuuum, no. Damon is not a run producer. Varitek cannot be counted on as a consistent bat. Nixon, haha, sure. Renteria has been up and down. Mueller, yeah, sure.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:57 PM) Baserunning & Defense Lowell regularly makes jokes about his lack of running speed, but he is a smart baserunner who usually scores when expected. His defense keeps getting better. Last year, Lowell cut his errors to just seven, a career low for a full season. He makes all the routine plays, has a solid and accurate arm and makes the barehand charge as well as anybody. Put him at 1st. As long as he is faster than PK and doesnt pop up every AB.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:53 PM) hmm they both look normal in sox unis Especially Lowell. I was just looking at it and I was like "Damn, he looks like he has been on the Sox for a while!"

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) My avatar> all... so STFU please. Hahahaha. I agree with SFF.....

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) I agree with most of this, but you might want to rethink #7. They do have a guy by the name of Johnny Damon. Varitek ain't bad either. Yeah, I was thinking that as I typed it but I was talking in terms of production. Dont get me wrong. Damon was an all star but Ortiz and Manny are their 2 big guys they rely on to get runs in. Damon is a great player. Vartiek.....meh.

QUOTE(soxfan3530 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) hey dont knock ozuna. pablo is the man Yes, he is the man, at 2B and SS.

QUOTE(Jake @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:31 PM) Why arent they trading Dontrelle? They won't trade him unless we take Cabrera too...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:44 PM) So, where'd you get that Burnett one from? I'm not sure who made it but by your inquiry, I assume it was you. Doesnt matter because I stole it from ScottPodRulez22 avy!

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:43 PM) I like it almost as much as that sig

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:40 PM) Great Post. For you "get RP" people in this thread, who is your magic RP? Its not Wagner, and its not Guardado, because they arent available. So who next??? Scott Eyre......duh!

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:38 PM) NO!!! :fyou I'm sorry. The SoxTalk auto-size compression made Lowell look really goofy so I edited it and compressed with MS Office Picture Manager...... Glad you like it.

Anyone like my new avatar????

Avy test: EDIT: Kalapse made the Burnett one FYI. I made the Lowell one.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:00 PM) Done. Whoooooooot whoooooooot!

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:56 PM) i'm willing to bet there would be high intesnity and packed crowds if we played tampa bay in the playoffs. Packed crowds yes, but the stadium would be silent

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:55 PM) So who do we believe the Score or ESPN1000? I will believe the one that says "The White Sox have acquired AJ Burnett and Mike Lowell from the Marlins for AAA Prospect Brandon McCarthy and reliever Damaso Marte. The Marlins have agreed to pay ______ of Lowell's deal."

The Twinkies because it would be one HELLUVA series and it would be schweeeeeet! Packed crowds, high intensity, playoffs, rivalry.....gives me goosebumps. I think we could schilack them in a series.

QUOTE(ChiSox_Sonix @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 03:20 AM) Seriously? You're definitely going out on a limb there, thats for sure. I always pick the underdogs and always add a few surprises. THe NFL NEVER goes as expected so I mix in a few "WTF!"s. The Redskins are underrated, as are the Chargers. I f***ing love the Chargers, but Im a Bears guy for life. Bengals are gonna suprise this year too, book it.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) When was the last time KW made a move that everyone saw coming? This has been discussed days upon days. Watch KW sneak in, don't do this deal, and deal for someone not even discussed. Like Miguel Tejada

QUOTE(lemon44 @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:31 PM) Konerko is FA after this year and Brewers have Prince Fielder for next year.It would be a good deal for both teams,if it is true the Sox want Overbay. Welcome to SoxTalk!!!!!!!!! You too heirdog, WELCOME!

QUOTE(FLsouthsider @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:32 PM) I used to work in a steel mill (thank the good Lord I get to push a pencil for a living these days) and when we would do work rebuilding furnaces (obviously they were shut off and ventilated, but still a good 110-120 degrees inside) they made us wear sweat pants, a sweat shirt and long johns (tops and bottoms) as well as your steel-toes, hard hat and dust mask. I'll trade that with under armor on a baseball diamond any day. I'm guessing the sweat suit is for minimum skin exposure???
