QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 23, 2011 -> 08:57 AM) Frankly, that would be a stupid decision. If we cut him we still pay him so what would we be gaining. He's still a pretty decent utility guy. Obviously not at what he's making but unless some team is willing to take him off our hands he's still a better option off the bench than anyone else we have in camp. I agree people act like he is taking a spot from a better player and that is not the case nor is his contract that huge that it is killing the team.

I like the theory posted a couple of pages back. The flu f***s you up they should have shut him down for a couple of more days. Really what is the rush here.

I think Jake is coming north unless the weather has something to say about it.

Jim Parque or butter

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 16, 2011 -> 07:15 AM) Buehrle scheduled to start- Splendid but today is the 16th.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 14, 2011 -> 04:55 PM) I really don't worry about pitching results in Spring Training. The key today is that Jake threw 67 pitches and has velocity. Yep in April they are hoping he can throw 70 pitches.....the retaining of velocity is key.

How is Peavy looking?

QUOTE (hi8is @ Mar 9, 2011 -> 02:58 PM) Yea - and the Giants guy didn't say anything else about it yet. At one point he did say: "I don't know what this is about and I don't want to overstate anything but it doesn't look like a normal reaction from a pitcher.... He's in the dugout now and not showing any signs of pain - getting high fives from his team mates." I don't know what to think other than *uck the giants radio guy. Melton would have gotten the story straight.

Sweet mother of god if he could handle third base that line-up would be looking sweet. The left side of the infield could be called the Cuban Missle Crisis or Little Havana.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) Yeah, I think we have like back-to-back games w/ them coming up soon, and then the last game of the season I think is vs. them. I think the last two of the season are against them but I could be wrong.

What is the score?

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Mar 8, 2011 -> 10:30 AM) Thanks for the feedback. I'm torn between staying at one of the big waterparks and staying at a hotel that offers discounted or free tickets to Noah's Ark or Chula Vista or Mt Olympus. I could save money by staying at a basic hotel, but then I lose the convienence of being able to just run down to the waterpark for an hour or so at night. Has anyone stayed at any of the big waterparks? How was the cleanliness? The bigger wateparks are as clean as they can considering that ther are kids involved and parents trying to make the most out of their vacation. The benefit of the larger waterparks is that you have the convenience of being close to a room and getting things as you need them (dry clothes, a breief break, food, drinks).

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 7, 2011 -> 09:00 AM) I know that a lot of the Dells got destroyed by the flood a couple years back, is that pretty much repaired and back to normal now? Yes The Kalahari (sp?) is bigger and one place but he Wilderness is more spread out and seems less crowded both are better than the rest. The Great Wolf is nice but it is smaller. We stay at he Wilderness and never leave. The cabins are awesome. Price is a major tipping point.

I think the weather will play a part as they may not want him to pitch in the cold. Remember his first start last year 38 degrees and raining.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Mar 4, 2011 -> 02:30 PM) Wow, I surprised at this. It will be interesting to see how long he can go at that speed. What the hell do you know.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 4, 2011 -> 10:32 AM) Got mine last night. Awesomeness. I like the new look of the tix too. Me too. I have Club Seats and the LG on them makes we think I need to get an LG tv. Life's Good.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 3, 2011 -> 03:42 PM) Ranger should be doing these games instead of Trey Bender. And Ventura is a good call, but I'd rather hear Rongey do them solo, and bring in guests throughout the game like Charley Steiner does on the Dodgers side. You guys assume Melton is being paid and the others will work for what he makes.

Is this the first Sox lead of the spring?

Silva and Ramirez schuffled. 3 errors and 2 3 run homers in teh first.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 2, 2011 -> 03:38 PM) Worst trade ever, bring back Linebrink!!! You know he will have a positive impact with the Braves

it is a valid question. None of the guys ahead of him are guaranted jobs except Teahen and that is only becasue of his contract. The problem is who gets moved? If he could play the OF, with his injury history, he can not, there is no room for him.

I am at work and can't watch on the internet. Can we get a little play by play of anything other than the berating of Bill Melton.

Come on the guy is old and doing internet broadcasts give him a break. He is a good guy to have a drink with as well.

Stan on the SCORE this morning and I thought I heard him say the new D man was going to help on the penalty kill...I was only half listening though
