  1. Is it that bad??? C'mon, we dealt with horrible throws from Valentin for like 5 years, Sure, he had a strong arm but still, I'd rather deal with a weak arm than an inaccurate arm. BTW, he sure seemed to make all the thorws against us.
  2. Honestly, I think the pen will have more saves than that. Although the offense is more balanced, we really don't have that blowout offense anymore. It's more consistent but it will obviously have it struggles. Every team has struggles sometime and that where I think the bulk of the saves will come. I'm expecting 30 saves from (full-time closer) Shingo.
  3. Maybe Burke, yes, but Davis and Timo???? Timo was CLUTCH last year, period. Davis stepped it up a s***loadwhen we acquired him. As far as Burke, he has shown glimpses but he's very, very inconsistent.
  4. I agree 100%, like I said yesterday, Eck is a SS, Uribe is PRIMARILY a 2B, but it's fine with me if Uribe needs rest and we put Willie at 2B. Just keep Eck at SS.
  5. THANK YOU!!!!!! People need to get off Barry's nut. He's not like Giambi or Sosa where he got buff overnight. Every year he got bigger and bigger, slowly and surely. Not characterisitc of steroid use. Damn!
  6. Last time I checked, Vizquel and Clement WEREN'T top-shelf free agents.
  7. Buehrle- 19 wins Garcia- 17 wins Contreras- 14 wins Hernandez- 9 wins Garland- 13 wins Total= 72 wins

    Cheer Up

    I apologize for messing with everyone's emotions just a minute ago with the "Eckstein Signs" thread. I laughed my ass off though.
  9. I wouldn't vote until ST but if I had to vote now, it would be "Good" but if we add Eckstein, it would be "Very Good" but like I said, it's too early to vote.
  10. Grand Valley State University! Woooooooohoooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously though, I might go there for college.
  11. Thats what I forgot. Welcome to the Boards Malon!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :
  12. I think that if we acquired Pujols for a grain of salt people wouldn't be satisfied. "we could have gotten more" or "he isn't the answer" or "why would he do such a move when we could have gotten Bonds instead!" People need to realize that s*** isn't easy and not everything goes our way all the time. Shut the hell up and deal with it, damn!
  13. They have competely turneds it around in the last few weeks. Ben Gordon has stepped it up big time. Gordon or Deng (one of them) WILL win ROY.
  14. HELLOOOOOO! Lance Briggs got f***ed over like a prostitute !!!!!!!!!!! He's tops in the league in solo tackles and the MOST UNDERRATED PLAYER on the Bears. Maynard got f***ed too.
  15. I guess you were serious. I thought u were being sarcastic because you said sorry, "he's the answer" like "Yup, he's our guy."
  16. Are you being serious or what?
  17. I voted for the Sox for a few reasons: 1- Im a Sox fan. DUH! 2- Past Santana/Radke, the Twins have no one in their ROTATION. We smoked Silva a few times last year. Lohse has come down to earth versus us. Mulholland is a plain-old geezer. As far as the Sox, all 5 or solid or better. Buehrle and Garcia are at the top. Radke is a big fall off from Santana where as Garcia and Beurhle are closer. Radke is up in age as well I beleive. Garland, El Duque, Contreras >>>> Silva, Lohse, Mulholland. 3- The bullpens are close. I give Nathan the edge over Shingo at closer. Marte the edge over Rincon/Romero at setup. The Sox get the edge in long relief (Hermanson, Cotts, Adkins) and in middle relief, their tied.
  18. Nevermind then, its from your stand point. Sorry for the inconveniance.
  19. And you might have to change your signature. :rolly
