They did the Pioneer league list today, and the only player to make it was Carter, who came in at #14. McCulloch dominated the league but somehow didn't make the top 20.

Please Beinfest, hire Cora Did anybody else notice the article mentioned that a certain Mets bench coach has a chance at the job?

I can't wait to see it on Saturday. From everything I've seen and heard it should be even better than the first one.

QUOTE(diegotony06 @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 10:34 PM) Orel Hershiser was on Baseball Tonight talking about the Sox (He did the Tigers game last night on ESPN). He mentioned that it disturbed him to see the clubhouse atmosphere and it wasn't what he'd expected out of the defending world champs....he said he noticed players making offseason plans, signs up about cleaning out lockers, etc. This was very disturbing to me considering they are not yet mathmatically eliminated I saw that too. He said there was a sign with info for the players about shipping their cars home.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 01:06 PM) Surprise, surprise... I still can't believe you guys hate the Red Sox more than you hate this team. Disgusting, disgraceful. I hate the Yankees more than I hate Boston. I will pretty much just root against the Yankees in the playoffs. The Mets too, I really don't want to see a subway series.

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:43 PM) since you arent able to have a memory here we go one more time: take notes please for gods sake! YOU RESPECT YOUR WS CHAMPION PLAYERS BY KEEPING THEM! AT LEAST THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS! GM couldve reevaluated at All-Star break.... The 1993 Blue Jays retooled their team somewhat after the 92 title, that worked out pretty well.

What's the deal with Urbina anyway? Is he still in jail, is he gonna be able to play this year?

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:34 PM) There were people on this site earlier this year saying that his attempted murder charge wasn't too big of a deal, and that he's a good guy. It wouldn't suprise me if he came to the Sox, he is one of Ozzies buddies. I think Ozzie said he went to visit him in jail over the winter.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:32 PM) What time will the autograph sessions with Juan Pierre and Uggy Urbina be? I never even thought about Uggy Urbina. That would be embarassing.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:23 PM) Ironic how in a series where a sweep was essential, it was Freddy Garcia whom stepped up. Garland and Buehrle soiled themselves on the mound. Is Harrelson questioning Guillen's move? Sure sounded like he was. You know things have gotten bad when Hawk starts questioning Guillen, he's been his biggest backer. "I would rather have Ozzie Guillen than any other manager"-Hawk

Twins win, that also means the Yanks clinch the division

What's Hawk like tonight?

I said it two innings ago, why is garland still out there? He's been playing with fire the entire game.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:10 PM) I thought he was a great player....but shockingly, he couldn't contribute as well in 2005 as he could in 2004. I think people forget that he was clearly our worst player down the stretch and in the postseason. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Great, Zumaya. I smell a ten pitch inning.

two homers, and what a suprise, they're both SOLO

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:49 PM) I get a kick out of how people crap all over Anderson the rook, who has a .231 BA, who started out like crap, and has turned it on. Yet Captain Profundo over at SS, who has a 3 point advantage over BA, who is a vet. Whose BA has dropped year after year gets a free pass from fans and from our goofy manager. I see the lift and pull offense is in full effect, we score a bunch of runs last night, and now we are struggling to get hits again. This is so 2003/2004 of our offense. People have been getting on Juan Uribe. Can't say that about the manager though.

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:46 PM) Maybe not if Ozzie would play Anderson the vast majority of the time, but as long as Ozzie felt Mackowiak gave us our best chance to win in CF ove BA, Hunter would have been well worth it instead. Good point. Twins wouldn't have traded him to us anyway.

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:42 PM) worthless eh? well what if Frank had the second half in Oakland wearing a Sox uni? dont ever underestimate the persona that character, attitude, and comradery have on a team! IMO AROW's marked stamp on this club "will to win" is the missing piece to this club in the second half... Somebody posted Rowand's batting average last august and september, it was around .230-.240. Don't forget his bonehead play game 2 of the WS. We aren't losing because we don't have Rowand.

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:43 PM) I frequent both sites so I'm not sure if anyone here hates Torii or not, but I know many at the other site do. I was just responding to and agreeing with fathom's post. Torii would be an upgrade. But I dont know if it would be worth signing him when we have Anderson.

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:39 PM) Amen to that! Torii is a winner. Sox fans who say they hate him would have loved him if he were in CF for the Sox this year. Who said that? I can see somebody on the other site saying that, but I dont really remember anybody here saying it.

What a suprise

My money's on a double play

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 08:34 PM) Why would you want Jon replaced in the fifth inning for gawdsakes. He clearly doesn't have it tonight

Get Jon out of there Ozzie. Of course Ozzie has to wait until the pitcher reaches 100 pitches, no matter how well he is doing.
