  1. I think with a full ST over there and some strategic off days early he'd be fine.
  2. Just heard it's in the upcoming edition. Of course if it's an interview, then you need to know the context.
  3. LOL!!!! I'll have to try that one! Of course since I'm much younger being 41 and all it might not work for me.
  4. On the bright side, it would ashure us of our second BBT lead in(the other being ARod's opening day at Yankee Stadium).
  5. Soriano is a pitcher now? That Romey sure is sharp.
  6. Well the 4th of July series would be start 14 or 15 for him if he pitches in it so it's possible, that would pretty much shut things up around here if he beat us to sweep that series with his 300th win and a record of 11-2.
  7. How can they? It wasn't a banned substance. I also don't think it's been proven to make you a better hitter or just how much it enhances your power #'s. Also, if pitchers are found to be on it then how can you punish hitters? Wouldn't it be a wash? I'm not saying I agree with their use, I'm just playing devil's advocate.
  8. Not to give this rumor any credence but doesn't USA Today have a rumor mill section that's in print only?
  9. Interesting, the cost of living is lower in Honolulu than it is in Lake Zurich. By 10%. I gotta go start packing.
  10. Well with the way things have gone for Sox Fans this off-season with: ARod going to the Yankmees Maddux going to the Scrubs It's only fitting that: Urbina goes to.....................the Twinkies! And of course the final straw to get Sox fans leaping of the ledge are the 5 simple words: The Tigers Win The Pennant!!! The Tigers Win The Pennant!!!
  11. And I would differ with that, yes the tried to seize the opportunity last yr, so did KC, but that's not the same as a commitment to winning a championship.
  12. I'm not sure what "Facts" you're talking about, as to the impact of losing 7 FA's that's a matter of opinion not fact and one that's still hotly contested around here. As to ease of access, he does give his reasoning for why he thinks so and for someone like me coming from the north suburbs Wrigley actually is easier to access. Besides, he could've quoted JR on that who has repeatedly blamed traffic for lower attendance.
  13. Right, we're a much better team now!
  14. Bordick is also retired. Clayton actually has a job believe it or not. Astascio is worth a minor league invite but I think someone is gonna end up giving him a major contract.
  15. Link? Quote? I hate it when people perpetuate something that was never said, we may not get Maddux but that'll be because JR never tried and I'm not gonna sit and listen all yr how it wasn't JR's fault because Maddux was an NL guy. That's bulls***.
  16. Yes, Jose V. to the Rangers makes alot of sense if you're JR looking to get your payroll down near the $58 mil level. Don't know what we'd get in return but it really wouldn't matter as long as he's cheap.
  17. Not according to this: http://www.baseball-reference.com/m/maddugr01.shtml
  18. Surprised the Sox arn't doing it, they usually go for that kinda stuff.
