Konerko Would DH and Overbay is a better Glove. I think Overbay would thrive in the AL

Frank Thomas and injuries
QUOTE(sweatpants @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 05:03 PM) I have been a White Sox fan the last 20 years and my favorite player since 1990 was Frank Thomas. I collected all his cards and magazine covers, but I don't know if this has been discussed before, but doesn't it seem like when Frank is hitting well, no injuries are bothering him. When he isn't hitting well, then his injuries are nagging him. There was a article in Sports Illustrated a while back hinting Pete Sampras would try to fake in an injury in the middle of a match he's losing in a scapegoat ploy to losing to lesser foe. I do know Frank is hurt, but could he be embelishing it a little bit because he's hitting so bad(average wise)? My God!!!! :headshake Dumbest thing said EVER!!! Do you really think a Future hall of famer is gonna shame himself like that?? Do you really think Frank likes to be injured and NOT helping his team while there winning?? If he didn't do that all the years they sucked like 95 and 99 i don't think he's gonna do it know that we got the THE BEST RECORD IN BASEBALL Try again, have a nice day Ohh but doesn't it seem like when Frank is hitting well, no injuries are bothering him. When he isn't hitting well, then his injuries are nagging him. NO s*** SHERLOCK

My dream scenerio
QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 25, 2005 -> 02:09 AM) Josh, I think my statements stand for themselves ... as you said, just my .02 . It's the same MVP Baseball xbox stuff over and over and over. And, the inability to distinguish the difference between fact and opinion. Yas summed it up perfectly (see above). As for wanting him to go to another board, again, just my .02 and I suspect the .02 of dozens of others here. When you say no one else gets blasted for wacky way out trade ideas, I disagree. People get blasted for that stuff almost every day. In fact Josh, here's a quote from one of the site admins just this evening (and I agree with him): "I'm getting sick and tired of MVP trades being thrown out there and people thinking Dye as a regular first baseman. GMAFB." I suppose I could have just quoted this guys post and said "give me a f***ing break", but I thought I'd amplify to reinforce what others have said many, many times. Thanks for your thoughts though. Thanks Jim, No harm meant. I just tought that one post wasn't so bad. But I do agree with the Dumb MVP trades and people wasting a whole thread on a unrealistic idea that won't happen, and it has to stop. Thats why i just make fun and laugh at many of those ideas thrown out there

Alex Gonzalez
Nothing is gonna happen at short cause Uribe signed long term. I would liked to add Furcal's speed with Pods'

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 24, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) BWAAAAAHAAAA HAAAAA HAAAAA Rotisserie League, paging Anthrax. Xbox, paging Anthrax. Go away, your 15 minutes have long been over. Why Jim?? I don't think he said anything exagerated. I've seen worse on this board, Hell Really worse. I don't agree many times with Anthrax but that wasn't a bad post. Only maybe the Giles thing. Ohh and another thing, Why anybody else comes up with these REALLY Stupid and unreal trade ideas and no one says anything and cause anthrax says it he gets blasted. I know he's been annoying in the past but this time he was expressing an opinion, Another thing i think it's sad you say go to this and that board, What are you saying there??? Sorry nothing personal just My 2 cents

Odalis Perez Rumor

Odalis Perez Rumor
QUOTE(DukeNukeEm @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 06:04 PM) 07.18.05Peter Gammons is reporting on ESPN that, "the Dodgers are looking to deal Jeff Weaver with the Nationals and White Sox showing some interest." Gammons went on to say that "the Dodgers would deal Derek Lowe and/or Odalis Perez if another team was willing to take their contracts." Further proof that Peter Gammons is utter nonsense. OK, Weaver's in the final year of his contract, so of course a trade is likely as the Dodgers continue to tumble. But speculating that Perez or Lowe could be moved - with those contracts - is just plain silly. Per Dodger-Dugout.com My god, Im in love. I love Odalis and want him so bad. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My dream scenerio
QUOTE(whitesox61382 @ Jul 24, 2005 -> 03:31 AM) Trade deadline moves: Arizona gets: Anderson, Tracey, and Gonzalez(SS) Sox get: Tracy LA gets: Crede, Haigwood, and Owens Sox get: Perez Texas gets: Contreras and Young Sox get: Soriano Offseason: Sign Furcal Resign Konerko Resign AJ Resign Soriano Resign Politte 2006 team: LF Podsednik SS Furcal DH Soriano 1B Konerko 3B Tracy RF Dye CF Rowand C AJ 2B Iguchi Can you imagine how exciting it would be to watch this offseason? The mixture of speed and power would be amazing. There would be a possibility that the top 3 hitters could combine to steal 150 bags, plus you have guys like Dye, Rowand, and Iguchi who are capable of stealing double digit bags. With the exception of Podsednik, all the other hitters are on pace for double digit HR, and three(Soriano, Konerko, and Dye) are on pace for 30+ HR. This lineup could be a 200/200 SB/HR lineup. You have a nice balance to the lineup, and all the players are in the prime of their careers(none of them are over the age of 31). LH Buehrle RH Garcia RH Garland LH Perez RH Hernandez/McCarthy The Sox would retain the big 3 from this year, and add another solid lefty to the mix. They still have McCarthy as insurance in case one of the starters struggles or goes down with an injury(a nice insurance policy to have). RH Hermy RH Politte RH Vizcaino RH Jenks/Baj LH Marte LH Cotts The Sox keep the nucleus of the solid pen of 2005. With a young arm like Jenks/Baj being a wild card with their potential to dominate. IF Uribe IF Ozuna/Harris 1B/OF Gload C - whoever OF - whoever Sign a decent backup catcher and outfielder, and the roster is set. From a payroll perspective, the Sox would lose about 20M from Thomas, Contreras, Takatsu, and Everett, while adding roughly 25M from Tracy, Perez, Soriano, and Furcal. Add in about 10M from internal raises and arbitration, and I think you have a semi-realistic payroll for next year based on the increase in attendance and potential playoff revenue. I realize that this is not going to happen, but it isn't out of the relm of possibility, and I wouldn't be surprised if a deal similar to the ones listed above occur. Wake up NOW!!!!

QUOTE(Bridgeport Sox @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 05:38 PM) I know i don't post much but this has been bothing me for some time now. I cannot believe he sent Paulie home on that base hit. All season long (and last season) he has been sending runners home on close plays and has been getting lucky, and when he's not lucky they are out by a mile. I love the Sox but I think we should can him after this season. What do you guys think? :headshake Another Panic Thread

Mark Buehrle
QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Jul 24, 2005 -> 05:05 AM) Mark buehrle hasn't been the same since his last start. All this sliding on the tarp may be getting to his pitching arm. The white sox need to trade him before he becomes a liability. Hes hurting this team. Just look at the effect hes had on jon garland. Its sad. Some of you people need to stop making stupid threads about how people need to go because they have one bad game or because we loose a game. Last i checked we were still 30 games above .500. Yeah loses feel bad but get over it. :banghead :headshake

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 08:29 AM) That's three decent ballplayers. I don't see why it would suck. Where would Hillenbrand play? Please don't say thrid cause his glove is awful. Lilly is ok, Batista inconsistent

One minute you're like wow, he ain't so bad.....then WHAM! yup, still a tool. Same OL Same ol Crede makes an error and everybody wants to kill him, he hits a homer and he's God...

Hard Times in Chicago
QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Jul 22, 2005 -> 04:34 AM) Everyone was hoping it wouldnt happen but besides dominating cleveland the sox are struggling a bit and allthough there isnt much good on the outside of this i think the sox will pull out of this better than ever and prove to all the doubters how strong of a team they are i think some people have said before is you see how strong a team is when they bounce back from tough times :headshake Lost a couple of games soooooo fricken what??? Don't b**** and enjoy the damn ride
