QUOTE(WCSox @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 02:26 PM) I thought that Jon was only under contract through next year? Jon Garland p 3 years/$29M (2006-08) * signed extension 12/05 * 06:$7M, 07:$10M, 08:$12M

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2007 -> 02:20 PM) Or you REALLY don't want 30% of your payroll tied up in 2 players over the next 3 years, one of whom is a huge risk to be injured/ineffective some time over the life of the deal and leave you eating $14M+ for a few years. There's a pretty big downside to giving Mark 4+ years and ~$60M guaranteed. If Konerko, Buehrle and Garland are all still with the Sox in 2009, somewhere around $40M of probably an $85-$95M payroll will locked up in 3 players. I'm not sure I understand exactly where this assumption is coming from....based on what?

C'mon, I'm sure you all are capable of having a discussion without calling people silly names, and making ignorant statements. Start doing it now please. Also, no reason to start any more rumors about this incident

Yeah, this story is turning alot worse, in a hurry...

My life is saved, Sir Prancer is back.

"Shaffer, at the helm when the White Sox drafted such stalwarts as Jack McDowell (1987), Joe Crede (1996) and Mark Buehrle (1998)" Hahah, give me a f***ing break....how can you even count Buehrle as a 'good draft' when he went where he did. And lets not forget the YEARS of futility as the scout head. Good riddance.

When grindErstad and Prancer return, we won't lose another game all season, period!!

Now, lets see if Uribe can get a hit that actually matters for something.

Hah...3 pitches, Mr. Dye does jack s***. Thanks again for 2005 JD

Pods will single handedly turn this teams season around!!11

Gametrack had those fastballs blazin' in there at 93 MPH too... Its sad when we all know that no way in hell Jenks should go 2 innings...and yet...we don't want to see ANYONE else out of the pen. Top notch bullpen we've got here, glad that was fixed in the offseason.

Oh my f***ing god Why do we even bother to watch this s***storm of a team?

And so it begins.

Wheeeeee...here we go...

Bullpen Adventure, commence in T- 1 inning!!

Sad. 6's are the norm for ERAs in our pen.

Haha, we are so f***ing clutch

Bukvich clearly belongs in the major leagues as well

Javy out there earning that contract!!

Yep, its true. I am a 100% Pods hater. I think it was a huge mistake to sink money into a DL ridden 0 tool guy. BUT, fact is, I root for him to do well everytime he is out there, because I want this TEAM to win, and if that takes Prancer doing great things, so be it.

Odd, I'm not sure I've seen one person on SoxTalk say "I hope Prancer does awful, I hate that b****!!" as it was said on page one. Just because alot, ALOT of us don't like him being brought back for 2007, sure as hell doesn't mean we're going to root against him. There are quite a few posters on SoxTalk that seem to confuse agitation and frustration with a player as dislike for the teams wellbeing. I don't get it.

Oh!!! my day is already made, I can't express my inner joy over hearing it!! The season is now saved.

I've never seen a 1 man bullpen...this is pathetic.

Jesus Christ guys....give me a goddamn break already

This just in!! Our bullpen sucks f***ing ass
