once again why do we pitch to his shovel swing?? you pitch him away hes going to hit it, you pitch him in, your going to break his bat.

O-E-O PA-BLO Nice work Tadahito. 11 pitch inning for Perez.

"Jerry Manuel....errrr....I....make the f***in line ups"

Ozuna LF Iguchi 2B Dye RF Konerko 1B Crede 3B Gload DH Anderson CF Uribe SS Alomar C

he just hit #30.

this Tetsu Yo Fu? i supppose there couldn't be another.

I've been on the fence about vazquez, so frustraing, but his last outing he pitched into the 6th, over errors and only gave up 2, and was in line for the W, maybe hes turned the corner, i'm desperate for someone to man up in this rotation aside from Garland and lead us to the post season again.

agreed, how does everyone feel about Sweeney in the Lead off posistion this year and possibly next?

Guillen open to Sweeney in LF/Lead Off

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 12:11 AM) Why does that look good to you? Mark has been very average this season. Count is a shell of the 2005 pitcher we fell in love with. Garland has been solid as hell the 2nd half, but had a brutal 1st half. I like McCarthy as much as the next guy, but he is going to have some pretty big bumps in the road next season. Im not sure I want him as my #4 just yet. Charlie just pitched two good innings against the Royals in a 7-1 game. Im not ready to put him into my rotation. Well, MB is LHP, Young, Durable and is having a "down" year, we might be able to lock him up long term below market value. Jose is prolly the biggest health risk out of the bunch but has proven that he can dominate for long strechtes of time, if he goes down or isn't performing around ASG '07 Broadway should be ready or at least thats the informed opinion of John Sickels. Garland has been great the second half and is the winningest pitcher in the bigs for the past two years, he hasn't lost his "stuff" and is young and durable and cheap. McCarthy has been improperly used this year missing weeks at a time before pitching, and last year and this year has shown flashes of brilliance when he gets a consistant feel for his pitches. Haeger is young, a knuckle baller, healty, cheap and durable and could take the ball every 5th day and give you 6 +, thats all you can ask for from a 5th starter With the money saved from Garcia + Vazquez and like i said we can get the same production from Haeger/McCarthy for 1/23rd the cost. Also we can get a top tier lead off man/SS and lock up Crede/MB long term.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Sep 2, 2006 -> 12:02 AM) Personally, I like the idea of keeping Haeger around. I know there's that prejudice against knucklers. But even if you have merely a fifth starter who just doesn't wear out, with a below-value price even after arbitration (cuz noone likes knucklers) -- that's a big plus for any club. I agree, an '07 rotation of Jose MB Garland McCarthy Haeger looks good to me, with Broadway waiting in the wings incase anyone goes down. Trade Vazquez/Garcia + Uribe too the phillies for Rollins, put Sweeney in LF, and were golden.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Sep 1, 2006 -> 11:48 PM) Since the other thread's been designated the cuss-a-thon (understandably), I want to hear it here for that guy with the knuckleball that just fluttered into our hearts, the one, the only, Charlie Make-Em-Look-Stupid HAEGER!!!!!! Short outing, I know, but he was throwing that thing well. He got lit up before, well, he's a knuckleballer, AND a rookie. It happens. But tonight he settled in after a batter or two, and he was impressive. Even mixed in the fastball beautifully. Post yer kudos here. yes nice work chuck, in his mlb debut he was throwing the knuckle in the high 70s low 80s, for a knuckle ball to be effective it needs to be thrown in the low 70s, he even said after his start he was incredibly nervous. Personally i know alot of people here don't like the idea of a knuckle baller in the rotataion but the sox have a proud tradition of it, and Haeger is MLB ready, him along with Broadway should be in the show in '07, if we got rid of Vazquez and Garcia we could have the same production for 1/20th the cost, between McCarthy and Haeger, also we could then spend that money on resigning MB long term, and getting a top tier SS.

"we lose, i still make the f***in lineups"

wrong beltin bill, Mackowaik shouldn't be in CF, and Gload/Sweeney should be in LF

and the twins lost.

I'm going to take the bright spot from this, Haeger and Logan, Montebello!

f***!

mercy!
