QUOTE (north side chi sox fan @ May 4, 2008 -> 09:55 AM) should start rehab in 2 weeks.. wonder how many at-bats he needs in AAA Might be a lot. He missed almost the whole spring.

Crede still sucks.

Why does he get hit so much? I don't get it.

Come on carlos.

Holy s*** they are hitting the ball.

Still, quentin and him have a lot more in common. Better arms, higher potential to hit for average, corner outfielders primarily this year. Even Dye is more comparable.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2008 -> 03:33 PM) It's amazing the difference in the Sox 2-5 hitters compared to the Cubs. You expect nothing with the Sox, but when the Cubs 2-5 hitters are up, you're shocked if they don't reach base and score at least one run. So far, it really hurts that Fukudome looks to be a much better player than Swisher. Why did you pick swisher? Does Fukudome play center?

QUOTE (Soxpranos @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 09:30 PM) We have faced some pretty lousy pitchers as well, but our offense does not capitalize. Give the Cubs credit for what their offense is doing , we need to get it going. Never.

Luckily I work for myself or else I'd be even more pissy.

I don't find s*** like that funny. I'm working. It f***s with my wallet.

He is still a career .761 OPS guy by your stats. That's not bad.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 29, 2008 -> 08:32 PM) Republicans have always been about low taxes which in and of itself isn't a bad thing and I would normally support, but they act like big defense spending isn't costing that much and the deficit isn't really that big of a deal, then while pushing budgets that would give most big government Democrats wet dreams, cut taxes as well. All the while pushing the idea of the magical tax fairy that's somehow going to revive the economy, all we have to do is cut taxes. I mean, let's just be honest - war is expensive, we don't have the revenues to cover it, we need tax. There's no way to hide it. I wish more people would stop taking all these tax promises at face value. That includes Obama and Hillary, they're just downplaying how much exactly we'd have to raise taxes by. I am being honest. We really don't need more tax. What we need is less bureaucracy wasting away all of the revenue. This country really sucks my ass when it comes to fiscal responsibility. War might be expensive but its only about half of the problem.

I am in love with a man, this man.

I am in big time man love.

Are you talking about this year or career or who is the better player right now? Its hard to compare with all the bums pitching in the NL central. Highly subjective.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 29, 2008 -> 06:51 PM) Cy Bonser is upon us. His brother boof goes by a stupid name.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 29, 2008 -> 06:30 PM) I have no rational reason, but I hate Justin Morneau. We can make up the reason later.

Actually, I changed my mind. Hearing 'Boof' is worse.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Apr 29, 2008 -> 06:08 PM) happy birthday - sucks that you have to celebrate it by constantly hearing the word Boof lol. but what sucks even more is I have to get up for work at 4:30.

We need a win here on the birthday of birthdays. MINE.

Jim Thome is going to get his PAs and hit about .270 with 35-40 HR. That's my prediction.

Injuries killed our already small chance last year. We have a better chance of success and hopefully we will stay healthy too. I say a pray to no one every night that AJ doesn't get injured. I can't think of a player nearly as crucial to our success.

Me three. He might be my favorite player. I just hope he stays healthy.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Apr 26, 2008 -> 10:09 PM) I know, but it seemed a little more raucous that usual. Crede's was the same.

10 games is deceiving. Still hilarious though.
