QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:51 AM) Now that this is out, I don't think NY or Boston would let Griffey get through waivers. He probably already has gone through. I don't think there's the smallest chance either of these teams would risk having to take the entire portion remaining on his contract to block the White Sox from maybe acquiring him.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 10:38 AM) aw man, i hope we can still get griffey, we could still really use a bat He will definitely clear waivers. Any team claiming him would have to assume his entire contract. Maybe this trade can be revisited in a couple of weeks if Junior can stay healthy. It would make a lot of sense for both teams. The White Sox could really use his bat and his presence in the line-up.

on those pepsi nights, you can always type in pepsi as the code. I'm pretty sure it works.

If the Sox go 3-55 the rest of the season, Steve Phillips' prediction of a 72-90 season will be correct.

This is the biggest problem with Buerhle's ejection. Hermanson is the 6th pitcher.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:36 PM) Maybe they should bring the Haegermeister up for a different look Let AJ catch him and Contreras back to back and see how pissed he gets. It would make a good segment of Punk'ed

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:30 PM) I thought this was the 9th, Thx for making it interesting Marte. If there was deal that invloved Marte and B Mac, K Dubs shoulda pulled the trigger. You'll be glad Marte is on the team in October. They need to let him take a day or 2 off. If he doesn't make an appearance, he at least warms up almost every game.

QUOTE(lopo89 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:25 PM) List of People that Canseco was right about: Giambi Sosa Bonds McGwire and now... Rafael Palmeiro Who's next, Roger Clemens P.S. f*** these orioles, theyhave to cheat to hope to win, lets finsih up and look ahead to tomorrow where the matchup should be Garland vs. Halladay I thought Halladay wasn't coming back until this weekend.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) Pitch 1 - Called Strike Pitch 2 - Called Strike Pitch 3 - Called Strike Sammy Sosa called out on strikes. man I have seen that too many times. Never too many, after he was traded away from the White Sox.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:16 PM) The Os' are done for the year. The news about Raffy and now the sweep, it's over for em. Its been over for them. Now maybe they will realize it.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:07 PM) seems like the white sox averages are going up a little lately. A four game series in Baltimore will do that.

Lee Mazzilli is getting his final look at the White Sox as manager of the Orioles. He is going to get canned after this season, if not before it ends. The dual GMs there are in trouble. Everyone is scrambling to find a fall guy. Its amazing they really thought they could hang the whole season with their pitching staff.

AJ was a huge signing this offseason. The 2 position players who cannot get injured are AJ and Uribe.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:58 PM) I think that was a joke, Steff. I actually was curious. Maybe he needed the viagra because of the steriods. Aren't some side effects impotence?

I was thinking about Palmieros, don't steriods and Viagra kind of work against each other?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:36 PM) These bastards have to know that they will be drilled if they do that s***. Suspension or not. We can't keep taking it and taking it. We did in Oakland. Now Baltimore is trying the same s***. Vizcaino should drill the next batter he faces to even the score. The Sox are done with Baltimore after today. I think a 4 game sweep to basically end their season would be retaliation enough. Everyone knows retalitation gets you ejections and suspensions. Its been that way for a few years. I again think he would have got a warning if Ozzie wasn't so vocal last night, or he mearly brushed him back.

I don't mind a little chin music, by why put the tying run in scoring position and the go ahead run on first? I am not watching because I am at work, but if he intentionally threw at him his ejection is warranted. He will most likely be suspended as well. With the lack of off days coming up and quality of opponents, I don't think that it was the smartest move.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:24 PM) The situation didn't make sense, but watching the pitch and knowing MB's control, there is no doubt that was on purpose. None. Where there warnings issued earlier today? If not warnings would have been issued on the beanball if Ozzie keeps his thoughts to himself and his team last night. Now Buerhle's looking at a suspension.

Why would you retaliate with a lefty up and a runner on first? The umpire is just wrong here. This is a result of Ozzie popping off in his press conference yesterday, make no mistake about it.

QUOTE(TheBlackSox8 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 12:20 PM) if the guy at second or first get out....the streak is still intact because they are buehrles runners....and only one more out is needed wrong

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 11:15 AM) WTF is the score? 1-1

Buerhle's been giving up a lot of hits lately. Errors happen. Buerhle's the ace, he has to pitch over them.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 10:47 AM) You thought he was credible.. ?? I thought he was the most full of s*** when he did that finger pointing thing.. This is no surprise to me. It was obvious that finger pointing was coached. The surprise to me is the stupidity.

I wonder how this will effect the lawsuit he was considering filing against Canseco? LOL. How stupid can this guy be?

What's BS is the waiting for the HOF festivities to be over to announce this. Palmeiro and his illegally enhanced body could have affected the outcome of a couple of games, and that's not right.
