Al Lopez's Ghost

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 01:15 PM) So, can Garcia get from Durham to the Cell by 7:10? Maybe he's in Rienzo stealth mode.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Aug 8, 2013 -> 05:50 PM) What exactly are we going to do with all this cash? Hahn recently said it could be used in the international market, we'll need it for next year's draft top five pick, it could be used to facilitate trades, all of which are better uses than veteran free agents on the downsides of their careers.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Aug 7, 2013 -> 09:38 PM) RV will have one more shot to have a pitcher throw at ARod's head. Any manager with any understanding of the game would have thrown at him at least 3-4 times this series. If he fails to do it at all, Hahn needs to call him into the office after the game and tell him to pack his bags. There's no excuse for this type of ineptitude. Respectfully, I suggest you are out of your mind.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 5, 2013 -> 08:52 PM) KC will block us on everything. Not necessarily. They'd run the risk of the Sox just giving them the contract, like how we got Rios in the first place.

Have you seen this guy's numbers? 25 year old lefty: 34.1 IP 10 hits 1 earned run 11 walks, 42 Ks .612 whip .264 ERA

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Aug 5, 2013 -> 07:21 AM) Last time I checked, Brandon Jacob even has issues with the bat right now. Can he change that? Hopefully... but the only guy we have in the minors who is worthy of a promotion is Garcia. Assuming Rios is dealt this August or during the Hot Stove season during the off season, it will be very interesting to see a spring training OF competition between the likes of Thompson, Jacobs, Walker, Mitchell etc... All of these guys need improvements with the bat. If Viciedo is moved to 1B.... things may get interesting in the OF next year. I am predicting an OF of Thompson-LF, De Aza-CF, Garcia-RF. Rios will be dealt and Viciedo will split time at 1B/DH with Dunn. The best case scenario is Hahn aqcuirering a better option in LF over Thompson in a Rios trade. I still think the OF prospects that I mentioned have alot of work to do before they reach the bigs. Regardless, 2014 will also be a long season! I think many would say Thompson would be a better choice in centerfield than De Aza.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Aug 4, 2013 -> 06:49 PM) Just wait. We're gonna turn it on in September, finish with some "respectable" record, and push ourselves out of the Top 10 draft picks. This team? This talent? No way.

History in the making!

This happened a couple hours ago. Nobody posted it. Probably nobody cares...

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 1, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) Indians have 4-game sweeps of the Sox at home and in Chicago this season. Thank God we don't have any 5 game series.

It might not end till after game 324

Who replaces Peavy? Or have I missed something?

Tomorrow between 10:00 a.m. And 3:00 p.m. CST

Yeah but you were first

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 03:12 PM) Most users ever online was 727 on Jul 17, 2007 -> 05:25 AM We're not even close. What happened on that seemingly incredibly boring day? Ehren Wasserman was called up later that day, probably had everyone excited.

He's a Cub guy, so his Cub stuff figures to be accurate. Don' know if he has Sox cred

In the words of Crash Davis "We're dealing with a lot of s**t here."

And Rienzo is here!

This has got end tonight. This thread can't take another day and a half of this. It's funny tho.

He said Robin patted Lindstrom on his back, which technically is true. THEY WERE ON THE MOUND.

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 08:01 PM) Rienzo could be trollin us on his own accord Maybe he flew into Cleveland on his own. He's a kidder!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 07:37 PM) RIENZO'S A LIAR!!!!!! Rienzo says Hayes is a liar!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 07:04 PM) So we are getting Bogarets! Reading between the lines?

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 06:57 PM) Jake knows Brazilians speak Portuguese. That's why when he said he was speaking Spanish, it was both his and Rienzo's second language. So English is Rienzo's 3rd language. He may have more languages than pitches.

QUOTE (Jillian Michaels' Abs @ Jul 29, 2013 -> 06:53 PM) Brazilians do not speak Spanish. They speak Portuguese. So Jake, how's your Portuguese?
