Kenny would deserve to be punched in the face if he traded Anderson or MAC as discussed. You know, I could live with Black Mack leaving town, although I don't want it. But Scotty Too Hotty in Center? Kill me.

I want want want Vazquez flipped with McCarthy. That'd go a longer way to solving our problems than anything else I can think of.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) A manager is only as good as his player's execution though. If your team can't get a hit with RISP to save their life, you're going to lose a lot of games. I'm not going to get started on his use of Vazquez though. I don't understand why our worst starter has the longest leash. I agree. Freddy Garcia does have a large leash. That one Vazquez has is too long, too.

Not if he blows the division.

I think that whoever wins the Central this year, between us, Minnesota and Detroit, deserves it. Toronto's maybe if they battled back to win their division, but otherwise, one of those three. Disagreement?

I wish we could trade for Barry Zito.

Vazquez has to go. Either him or Garcia, unless he starts taking steroids again or goes to a god damned doctor to see what his problem is, because he's either hurting or crazy stupid.

I have so much more faith in Matt Thornton than Neal Cotts.

This is miserable. I wonder what the hell it is that makes his pitching so absolutely unhittable early on and his pitching worthless in the sixth, or why the hell he gets through adversity well early, but never, NEVER, in the sixth or fifth. It can't just be balls.

All right, no more faith in Vazquez. He's a fishing baboon.

Update plz

I've been away most of the day, so will someone fill me in: is there some major trade rumor about Mac?

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 08:07 PM) bah, dye isn't that slow. Not Crede or Paulie or AJ, but he's still slow.

Pierzynski, Crede, Paulie and Dye are sooo slow, they look like they're stuck in mud. We've got to have the slowest team in baseball.

That's the thing about Javy: he'll avoid a couple of big innings before finally melting down. Hopefully he's turning the corner. Anyone remember that one game where he threw over a hundred pitches before the first, but he kept loading the bases and then working through them before getting burnt? Javier's a brinksman.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 03:35 PM) Jeremy Reed just called me. He said he hates this deal. Jeff Nelson called me and said, "Here's the solution to all our problems!"

QUOTE(Reddy @ Jul 24, 2006 -> 12:08 AM) hey man i go to loyola. if you have any questions let me know. (btw LUC is 34k/yr... not much better than 40) That's counting boarding, isn't it? I don't intend on living on-campus, so that'll shave off nine thousand for me.

We're going to give Santana his second loss of the season against Chicago.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) Thomas Jefferson was never wrong. Except about the Economic Embargo that nearly crippled us, and his refusal to fund the military properly that left us off-guard for hte War of 1812! Wait, that was Bill Clinton.

Potatoed?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) I personally love him. He's one of the greatest hitters I've ever had the pleasure of seeing and he's never really given me any reason to dislike him. (his HR he hit off Vizcaino last year at the Cell is probably the most impressive HR I've ever witnessed in person simply because of how fast it got out of the park with that sort of distance.) I'll surely concede he's a great hitter, but I hate everything about his attitude and personality.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 10:36 PM) No doubt. But everything Manny does in the outfield is just hilarious. He picks it up, slips out of his hand, then he points to it for Coco to pick it up. Still better than Pods. I hate Manny Ramirez.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 10:43 PM) WhiteSox.com says Paulie might not play tomorrow. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Having Gload in the lineup was our lucky charm! The Rally Gload!

QUOTE(spiderman @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 10:34 PM) Less than 'never showing enthusiam' is still nothing....

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 23, 2006 -> 10:29 PM) Because since I've been a die hard fan, he's the one pitcher the Sox have been able to count on every single year. Homer
