QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 03:47 PM) I swear, Bruce better not just be stirring s*** up... Its a big possibility. Think about it, this is his swan song. With the Sox leaving the station, AM1000 will be able to increase their Bears coverage next year. They may not even need a baseball reporter. ( Notice how I refuse to call Bruce an expert). If the Sox indeed trade for Griffey, Levine can say he broke the story. He probably is looking for another job. If they don't trade for him, its just another miss, which, because there are so many right now, one more won't make much of a difference.

Ken Rosenthal reported there was no way Griffey would be moved this afternoon on the Fox pregame show.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 03:17 PM) His contract could have been a lot worse to deal with. While I would gladly take Nomar's bat in our lineup, he's just so unreliable right now. No one has mentioned that he had bad back spasms now. It's a shame...he was a great player until he started going after the rat. He'd fit right in with his back problems.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 10:20 AM) Is Nomar going to be a realisitic option in free agency if we're going to have to upgrade at SS? Will be interesting to see what type of contract he gets. I believe his agent is Arn Tellum who has a real good relationship with JR. JR can be pretty creative with contracts, especially incentive-related ones. If the rumors are true that he is building a home in the area, it wouldn't surprise me something could get done, although I find it unlikely, if that makes any sense. I hope wherever he lands, as long as its not the Urinal, he gets back to where he was. He was a great hitter, and a pretty decent guy. I think he was unfairly put in a bad light after he was traded last season.

Ken Rosenthal was on the Fox pregame and he said Griffey isn't going anywhere. He's been far more accurate than Levineline historically.

Matsui will play CF. Lawton would have been a good pick-up for KW as insurance for Pods. Although he was pretty bad with the Cubs, he does get on base.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) that's horse s***. that ball was wayyyyyy low It was at the knees from the camera on the side.

Rowand's been fanning at an alarming rate.

Everday Eddie and his torn rotator cuff will be entering the game.

Jeff Nelson in. His ERA is over 11.00 this month. That probably means an 8 pitch inning.

The clock has struck midnight since Anderson's last AB. He couldn't do it again, could he?

They way DJ talks about the Mariners, you would think they have won the last 10 World Series.

Once again, the offense sucks. Viz is in

I'm so sick of hearing how great the opposition pitchers are pitching against us. If they are that good, steriods should be legal.

pinch run and steal

This isn't the ballpark you want to be swinging for the fences in.

Konerko's back is bothering him. He was wincing.

QUOTE(ceffa2000 @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 10:53 PM) I'm having a flashback of a certain loooooong Twins game. Our bullpen won't be able to go that long without surrendering a run tonight.

Everett is not a #3 hitter. Our offense is offensive.

These guys are swinging for the fences.

That's bad.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 10:48 PM) hit it to center reed has the worst arm in the group. Unless its a little bloop Anderson will score. He has good speed, and you know he's going to be busting.

Mateo is not a strikeout pitcher.

DJ just said, "this little man can do it all" He was talking about Timo.
