I wasn't trying to prove you wrong, Just poitning out the teams that did that. Shhesssh Touche!!!!!

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) I read a study, (I've lost the data now because I wiped my HD) that was basically about this same thing(with much less mainstream media Yankee fellating) -- I'll see if I can find it... Basically the gist of it was that teams whose pitchers get more strikeouts do better than teams that don't (I know it's revolutionary) -- From what I can remember, I would say about 90% of all playoff teams from the past 25 years recorded about 1000 strikeouts. That's a pretty healthy correlation. The 93 Sox team was one of the 10% that made the playoffs with less than 1000 k's they had 974 and the 1983 team was another with 877 K's, 96 Rangers are another with 976 k's, 98 Rangers had 994 '99 Rangers had 979k's More teams that made the playoffs with out 1000 k's 1983 Orioles 774 k's 2002 Angles 999 k's 1986 Angels 955 k's 1982 Angles 728 k's 1995 Indians 926 k's 1992 A's 843 k's 1991 Twins 876 k's 1990 A's 831 k's 1990 Red Sox 997k's 1989 A's 930k's 1989 Blue Jays 846k's 1988 A's 983k's 1987 Twins 990 k's 1987 Tigers 976k's 1985 Blue Jays 823k's 1985 Royals 846k's 1984 Tigers 914k's 1984 Royals 724k's I know it said close, I just threw out the numbers so it can be compared

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) Then you totally misread the question in the first post... Ohh s***

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:52 PM) woah -- that's a lot of misinfo Shingo = FA in 06 Konerko = FA in 06 everyone else we have some sort of option on. Frank - dual option Igu - under contract (assuming he officially signs) Crede - under 6 years of service Contreras - under contract Marte under contract Hermanson - Under contract AJ - Under 6 years of service It's not Mis Info. If you sign a 2 year deal your a free agent after the 2006 season. Sooooo Contreras contracts ends after the 2006 season as does Hermanson and Pollite. Frank too and Iguchi if the Option is not taken. AJ would be a free agent, his service time started in 2001 making him a 6yr man. Plus he was cut loose and his contract with us is only for a year and maybe an option. So he is too a free agent. The players i mentioned there contracts end after the 2006 season.

After the Season not Before

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 05:01 PM) May i ask, what do you have against polls? Every time one is put up you say something about them. Cause 99.5% Of the polls here ask questions that have been asked over and over and over and over again. Plus Many are somewhat DUMB

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:41 PM) Pods Iguchi Frank Konerko Dye Rowand Pierzynski Crede Uribe Buehrle Garcia El Duque Contreras Garland Shingo Marte Hermanson Vizcaino Politte Cotts Who from that list will be a free agent after this season, if not signed to an extension during the season? Konerko, Shingo, Politte....who else? Konerko Shingo Crede Contreras Iguchi (If opt is not Picked up) Hermanson Marte (Not SURE) Frank AJ

QUOTE(soxmalone21 @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 07:34 PM) Podsednik LF Iguchi 2nd Rowand CF Maggs RF Konerko 1st Everett/Thomas DH Pierzynski C Uribe SS Crede 3rd Wow that would be one heck of a lineup. No Crying over Spilled Milk. He's not here good riddance to him, MOVE ON

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 04:50 PM) what a hater...graffy would be great, for the attitude, and for back up purposes :headshake :puke

Ohhh Goodie, Another Poll

Say NO to Iron Glove No Range Graffy

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 25, 2005 -> 06:03 AM) You have to love the way KW was thinking this offseason. Who's the Guy in the Red shirt in Kenny's mind?

QUOTE(Cubs Suck23 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 09:05 PM) I want to give a big thanx out to Winnin Ugly for breaking the Iguchi story last week.. This dude also broke the AJ signing a few days before we got him..keep up the good work dude... Do you know anything else the sox are working on Yeah Right Ok!!!

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) Bad day, huh? Guess Someone is Grumpy :rolly

What was that for?

QUOTE(WSFAN35 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:57 PM) What are they going to do with Kennedy? Figgins could play anywhere. I don't think there gonna get rid of Figgins, They'll rather trade Kennedy

QUOTE(WSFAN35 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:56 PM) Is there any way that the Sox could trade for Chone Figgins? It seems like the Angels are stacked and they might have a hard time finding playing time for him. Where Would Mr. Figgins Play? I think the Angles got him penciled at second base

Deivi has no Range, But the hitting part is true. Minor League deal could be worth it. Rather have Deivi than Ozuna

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:44 PM) Uhhh, Ozuna can play 2B, SS, and a little CF. WOW!! Ozuna has played a total of 3 games at short. Well tell me why is he only playing the Outfield in Winter Ball

THANK GOD!

QUOTE(WSFAN35 @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:38 PM) Deivi Cruz is still available, and probably for a minor league deal. He can play SS, 2B, and 3B and he's decent at handling the bat. Deivi has no RANGE. Rather stick with Valdez. And Ozuna can't play short

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 24, 2005 -> 07:01 PM) Graffy was a clutch hitter off the bench. But, I don't think he's what we need. now. I'd rather give the utility job to a young guy for development purposes. I would rather go with Valdez. Maybe he doesn't hit much but he's a good glove man with range and that's what you want from the utility infielder. Graffy was horrid with the leather

Say NO to No range iron Glove Graffy :puke

Aurilia Sucks. Had one good Year. Rather give a shot to Valdez. If Larkin would be a backup i guess i would sign him even tho i don't like him
