The conversation all of the time is that most players are put on waivers. How do we not know if these players have already been put on waivers. Could Milledge be a PTBNL? I do not think so but was just asking.

Here's the thing next weekend the matchups will likely be Radke - Vazquez Santana - Contrearas Silva - Buerhle 2-4 could be very likely aginst the Twins. Radke didn't really get beat by the Sox more than the Twins defense. At some point they need to hit Radke and Santana.

QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Aug 18, 2006 -> 12:04 AM) Just a follow-up. ESPN has also disabled all programming for the weekend for this epic series. Only all 5 games, replays of such games, Special analysis of the games on Sportscenter will be the only things shown this weekend. ESPN is covering the game itself. ESPN2 is having three screen coverage consisting of the game and each dugout. ESPNNews is having instant in game analysis with the Baseball Tonight crew. ESPN Desportes has live open Mic of Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz who have agreed to speak Spanish for the entire series regardless of the questions or other conversation dialect. ESPNHD has figure skating and womens tennis all weekend.

This is as much Texas than Anaheim. This should serve as the White Sox case against both clubs.

Scott Podsednik has the least amount of baseball skill as any player I have every seen. I wish I could add something tangible to this thread other than this but sorry I can't.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 09:36 PM) I was suprised as well. Isnt the price just doubled or something from the regular season? How does it work? $45 for WC $70 for ALCS $140 for WS Thank MLB. You pay for every possible seat and game. I love hitting the bandwagon fans. Note you do not lose the opportunity to purchase your plan next year, you lose your seat location. This hits those that will not renew if they do not make and/or go deep in the playoffs. I like it. I have my seats for every game.

Dye (hitting and fielding), AJ and Crede were the reason we lost that game. Not one of them hit the ball hard off Hernandez. The Cora play was bad because Konerko was coming up. Being aggresive against good pitching or with bad hitting match ups is one thing. Running out of an inning with your number 4 coming up, who hit the ball hard off Hernandez is dumb and inexcusable. Cora has one thing to do on his own, stop and send guys at third. Last night he failed miserably. Iguchi not moving the guy over in the first and swinging from his heels and the Cora play are signs of a team that was to cocky last night. Riske showed why we should've swept. The Royals on the road are not that good. He did a great job although I thought he was over extended and was going to get hit in the 8th. Nice job. Pods striking out looking at two fastballs was terrible but I expect nothing more from him. He do drive in a run and get a double, why he did not try and steal third........ The Sox also did not make Hernandez get the ball over. I would love to see how many called strikes (sans Pods) to swinging strikes there were. That was one of the worst games of the year. Win the next two and I'm fine.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 15, 2006 -> 12:16 PM) As much as I would like to wipe away Jon's first two months, we needed those games as much as we need these ones. If he gets his ERA down to 4.75 I will consider the season a success How many losses did he have in those games? Has Jon Garland ever missed a start? To me that more than makes up for an ERA of 5.00. How many games would Haegar have won if Jon missed starts. Ask anyone on the northside or Boston how important a healthy pitcher with an ERA of 5 is. How many pitchers of Garland's age have more wins.

For anyone listening to Hawk and DJ, is Pods in between right now or just bad??? Joe that was bad. Juan that was worse.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:29 PM) Jon with 52 pitches thru 5. YAY BULLPEN REST NITE If it gets to a 10 run lead, Riske and Cotts will get in. IF jon hits 100 pitches.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:27 PM) OK Jon, I do believe your ERA is under 5 now. 4.98 Pull 'em to keep the confidence up.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:25 PM) I suppose this is enough of a cushion to put Gload in RF... or Mack in center Nice DP, that's a gem at how smooth it went.

Gload in right. Suck em up Joe.

"Snowman goes up on that board." That's a good one.

Would've been nice against Rivera.

QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:15 PM) pablo's made an adjustment in this atbat to lay off the high pitches And play whatever that game is where you hit the ball after it bounces. Nice rip Guch.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:15 PM) f***, I meant July 1. MY bad. Thanks, I wasn't trying to be a smartass BTW

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:13 PM) BA since July 31: 30/100 = .300 He has 100 Ab in 14 days????

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 14, 2006 -> 08:08 PM) Nice woodwork, but thats bad baseball by AJ. What did he do?

QUOTE(Jake @ Aug 12, 2006 -> 07:45 PM) Who released him? Why? Is this guy an asshole or something? Can he play CF defense? Houston Not sure about the attitude but he is average in center but could play left and hit off the bench. I am not sure if anyone has experience with his attitude.

His splits .312/.379/.416 against lefties could help as we seem unable to hit left handed pitching. He also could be a 4th OF and RH bat off the bench. Thoughts???

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 12, 2006 -> 03:03 PM) I'll wager that Detroit has won quite a few games on the strenght of sloppy play by the opponent's defense this year, and I doubt they complain afterwards. Yeah, Detroit gave us a few runs on defense...but we also didn't give them any gifts back. In the recent weeks a horses*** Cleveland bullpen comes to mind. They need to prove they can beat the Red Sox, Yankees and White Sox. They went 1-5 at home against them and have to play both at their places this season.

Fox should put one game on the National channel, one on FX and one on Fox News on a Saturday afternoon.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 12, 2006 -> 02:58 PM) Other than the clutch hit by Anderson, we didn't do much of anything to deserve a win today. BUT I'LL TAKE IT, now finish the damn sweep tomorrow for once and we'll be at 70 wins and be back in this race (somehow). They have the best record in baseball. You take them however you can get them.

The Daryl Boston catch was the best. The cat dove headfirst into the crowd. He was parallel to the ground. Also the Brian Simmons grabs top anything on this list. They were identical to the Ryna Freel grab.
