QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Nov 29, 2010 -> 08:49 PM) TIFWIW... Tom Verducci was on MLB Network tonight and suggested the Sox want to add BOTH Konerko and Dunn this offseason. He claims it's possible for the team to do so and says they want them back-to-back in the order. Rosenthal disputed the idea only because he said Ozzie wouldn't want those guys on the basepaths. Sure it's possible, but it's gonna take some serious payroll dumping and back loaded, player-friendly deals. Both PK and Dunn have lost some suitors recently so I suppose it could happen. And I'm sure the last thing Kenny is concerned with is what "Ozzie wants" as it relates to the roster. I don't know how they would do that money wise...maybe trade Jackson? Would anyone even want him? Would we even want to trade him? I don't mean to get into the entire Jackson/Hudson debate again, because I love Jackson, but how nice would it be to have an extra $8 million to play with? Having a 3-4-5 or Rios, Dunn, Konerko or any way would want to juggle those 3 would be nice...really nice!

He gawn!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 17, 2010 -> 01:42 PM) You know what that actually might mean? Brent Morel isn't your starting 3b at Charlotte any more. Hopefully! I loved what I saw from Morel.

Maybe he will be the backup 1B/3B if he has a good spring? Lefty bat with some pop on the bench?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Nov 17, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) Matsui would be the DH not RF'er His point was, Quentin sucks in RF...there is no way he can play there.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 17, 2010 -> 12:34 PM) Quentin can't possibly play in the field on a regular basis after seeing how much of a disaster he is there? And we also know Matsui can't. So if Matsui comes in, he'd be the DH, which means Q can't DH. But that is solely based upon the fact that I don't want Q to be an everyday outfielder. He can play every once in a while but not more than once or twice a week. I agree with that 100%...I just hope the Sox see what we all see as well.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 17, 2010 -> 12:28 PM) Any near-full-time DH signing would push quentin back into RF, and that sounds like a bad plan. I agree. Q needs to stay far away from RF!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 17, 2010 -> 12:25 PM) Matsui signing would probably mean Quentin would be moving on. I'm not following...how so?

Jake Peavy is ahead of schedule. jonmorosi KW says Peavy ahead of schedule. #whitesox 13 minutes ago via txt

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 16, 2010 -> 03:45 PM) For some reason I keep thinking Mike Napoli will be our starting catcher next season. There are far worse options out there then Mike Napoli.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Nov 16, 2010 -> 02:51 PM) Oh yeah. I would think something like Danks + Viciedo + Escobar or something big like that. Where do I sign? I would do that deal in a second.

What would it take to get Justin Upton. It would be more then Danks, right?

QUOTE (flavum @ Nov 16, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) f*** Manny Ramirez. If he's back, I'm out. bye.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 16, 2010 -> 07:38 AM) I think Cooper is 100% right when he stated flat-out that Sale will be in the big leagues next year. If no starter is traded and Peavy comes back, he'll be in the bullpen. Which, IMO, is the correct move. I want the 25 best guys we have on this team.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 15, 2010 -> 09:37 AM) I don't get the outrage. Agreed. It isn't like they are chaging our colors or anything. Who cares as long as they are shaking hands after wearing these jersey's.

My all time favorite player!!! Great job, Mark!

Noon to 1PM every Saturday I believe.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Oct 26, 2010 -> 09:42 PM) Does anyone realize how productive Castro was in limited AB's last year. He hit 8 Hr in 128 AB. If he gets a full a year of AB's, say about 460 for a catcher, thats about 30 HR. Wow. He was great in the role he was in. I don't think he would have 30 homers if he played full time, but I see what you're saying.

Can't believe it has been 5 years. In a way it feels so long ago, but also like it just happened yesterday...heres to getting another ring SOON!

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 25, 2010 -> 12:23 PM) Yeah, that whole first part I couldn't agree with more. Bmags, I had a Spanish class the next day (I usually had two classes on Tuesday/Thursday, but the other was cancelled the week before). All we had for that day was to watch a movie. I missed quite a few days in that class, so I figured I should go. I was never happier to wake up for an 8:00 a.m. class, sitting there not paying attention for a second to that movie with a huge smile on my face. I went to school in Massachusetts, but I had a teacher who was a Sox fan. He grew up in (I believe) North Carolina and grew up watching one of the Sox minor league teams. I had his class on M/W/F, but I sure didn't go to his Friday class because it was my only class of the day. I sent a cigar for him with another friend who had the class with the message "I'm sure you understand why I'm not there." That is awesome!!!

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 30, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) Thanks Ozzie!

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Sep 27, 2010 -> 06:28 PM) f*** this organization. Ozzie has no right to run this show for another year. Couldn't have said it better myself. f*** Ozzie!!!

Up your trade value, Carlos!

Sale!!!

I'll be there as well! Don't have tickets yet, but I will get some, no matter the price.
