Ben Davis
I was reading something about him. He was hitting over .300 at the all star break last year, and fell apart. This guy has ability. He usually is a far superior hitter right handed, but has hit both his White Sox homeruns from the left side. I think Sandy needs to retire. Maybe Ben will get some more playing time, and start living up to some expectations.

Carlos Delgado
It definitely was Delgado. Gammons and Stark both said the Sox had a deal in place for him, but he declined.

Sox in Eminem/D12 land: game thread 7-31-04
Actually, they went into last Sunday's game with a .5 game lead. 7 games later, they are 5 down, and starting to look out.

Load the bases and bring in Marte, just for s***s and giggles

Hawk just said Buerhle was becoming the leader of the club. He also said the Sox really haven't had a leader for a while. I thought that was one of Jose's redeeming qualities?

I suppose the Borchard sucks vultures will be circling after that line out.

Good thing Borchard made a nice play

That's the thing about his errors. It didn't cause a run this inning, but it forced Buerhle to throw about 10 extra pitches, something that might have an effect later in the game.

Olerud to the Yankees
Check the numbers the last couple years, Olerud's stick is far from nice.

Looks like Olerud is headed to the Bronx.

Loaiza traded to NY, Contreras discussion
Gammons just said the Sox were shopping ELO like crazy. They had a 3 way with Derek Lowe and Brian Lawrence almost go down.

That falls under tipping your pitches.

the 4 way trade involving division rival Twins
Gammons sounds like he's gonna cry talking about the Nomar deal.

It happened to Jack McDowell in the 93 playoffs.

Loaiza traded to NY, Contreras discussion
The Sox are on the hook for $4 million per season the next 2 years.

KW hinting Contreras has been tipping pitches, and Sox know how to correct this.
-
Major League Rumor Beat
KW needs to try and acquire guys without no trades. Not many players seem to want to play ozzieball.

Did Anyone just here what I heard on the Score?
It was Contreras and Proctor. Supposedly, Contreras wouldn't waive his no trade.

Gammons
For all the Gammons lovers who want to see what he really knows go to ESPN.com. In one article he says the D-Backs and Dodgers agreed to a deal but Johnson said no way to LA. In another he says Johnson has ok'd LA but the DBacks and Dodgers are far apart in regards to players. These articles are published within 3 days of each other and are both on the website.

Yes, unless Everett has to go on the DL

Elo Could of Been a Met
I doubt the Mets would have given the Sox Kazmir for Esty. They have control of Zambrano for a few years, Esty is looking for $8-9 million a year after this one.

Sox-Tigers 7/30 game thread: Showdown in Motown
That's just it. Not retaliating against Hunter is the Jerry Manuel way. Its time for someone on the Sox to step up and cause some trouble. These are just easy loses. Most of these guys look like they know something bad is going to happen. You have to will yourself to win.

Joe Bochard
7th inning Wed, he walked. 9th inning Wed. he hit a shot right to 3B, if he hit a dribbler they never would have doubled him up. Tonight, he screwed up.

Sox-Tigers 7/30 game thread: Showdown in Motown
Ever since Hunter knocked Burke down, the Sox have played (if that's what you want to call it) like pussies. Its almost like they quit after that. I think whether that play was clean or not, it was a big mistake not to make a message and plant one or two in Hunter's ribcage. They don't have any fire.
