QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 06:17 AM) Frank self-admittedly tweeked his hip flexor because "he got excited and ran too fast" Think about that for a second. Frank ran too fast. Look out Paul Konerko. Yeah I don't think there is any doubt that if he pulled something from running too fast, he came back too soon. Frank with a broken foot was still faster than Paul and AJ.

There was cash involved, I would venture to say it was a-lot. The entire salary for Hawkins and then some which is why they got a couple of guys with potential.

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ May 30, 2005 -> 08:48 PM) We're gonna have to cause I just looked at a stretch we have in the dog days of August starting on the 8th.. @NY @NY @NY, @BOS @BOS @BOS, MIN, MIN, MIN, NY, NY, NY, @MIN @MIN @MIN Uhh, we're gonna need some cushion before we start that stretch.. :headshake What are the Twins, Bos and NYY doing when they are not playing the White Sox? The Twins have nto faced these teams either and if they are playing one another in this mix, it is tough for all four teams.

Frank Thomas scored a run today. What Joe Crede and Paul Konerko did was down right embarassing.

We may miss the Gambler again barring a rain-out.

Then why did he play Saturday???

I get the feeling that if it is BMac and Crede it is Chavez and a ML ready or already in ML pitching prospect. My thought is that McCarthy is up here to get an idea of what he is made of. Is he Felix Diaz or a ML starter? This is not only for the Sox to see if they need someone later or for another team to see for trade value. Due to the contract status of Chavez, I think he is at his lowest trade value right now. Is there the question for every player whose performance has slipped (steroids)? with him. Is BB ready to rid himself of the contract and will take Crede and Tracy? Are Chavez and Haren (not Harden) enough for Crede and McCarthy? I do not think Haren is lighting it up, he is more of an example, maybe Cruz???? Who is the dude with the funky curve, the guy that hit Crede but didn't really hit him. I think if McCarthy is dealt it will be for a proven young middle/end of the rotation guy. Here is something think simply from the money side, Harden/Chavez---McCarthy/Crede/Anderson. Is this a total cub trade? Think of the money again.

Let's F'ing go for it and get Wagner and Polanco.

I think Crede and Uribe are getting a bit tired, we have had one day off in May and are playing tough teams. Next off day is a week from Wednesday. Why has this guy not played? If it is the injury from Oakland, DL him already? Any clue, I thought he was doing well wherever they put him.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ May 23, 2005 -> 02:52 PM) I agree with Chisoxfn, Its f***ing bush league of Uribe, and it should be below a team who is in 1st place with the best record in the league. We do not need to play this way to win. If we were in the Cubs position, than maybe I would have a different opinion. But when you are winning, you win the right way. And when you are losing, you do what it takes to win. ::shrugs:: Karma is a b****, and if this is the way the White Sox are going to try and win championships, I doubt we'll hang many banners. Kind of like when A-Rod tried to knock the ball out of the Red Sox players glove... I guess winning with class is a thing of the past. SB If what Uribe did could be compared to A-Rod, Lee would've been awarded home.

I think Uribe is more of a "headier" player now than I did yesterday. This moved worked. Lee didn't slide he didn't put his arms around him and hold on and say, hey Derek foul ball stop running. For all we know he didn't say anything. This is the game of baseball. Buck Showalter walking across the mound on Garland, Lou Pinella talking to the runner on first in an obvious steal situation, these are little things that cost a team a game and can win games. This how the twins play. I like this play, yelling foul may be wrong but again did anyone ask Uribe? Raising your arms to indicate foul is fine, Lee should look at Spier not Uribe. Case closed.

How about the Twins, Jacque Jones and the steroid fellow for Hawkins, Patterson or Dubois and cash???????

Has anyone seen a quote from Uribe on this? My feeling is that he actually thought it was foul. Anyway what is wrong with doing what he did????

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 21, 2005 -> 10:48 AM) I think Ozzie geared the lineup more toward speed to mess with Zambrano's head. Willie is faster than Iguchi and Everett is a bit faster than Dye. Willie can't steal bases, he isn't a threat.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 21, 2005 -> 10:33 AM) maybe they are dealing him???? This is a showcase for that Chavez trade, McCarthy for Chavez and $5M a season.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ May 20, 2005 -> 03:24 PM) YES, I GOT A PAIR FOR SUNDAY!!! its will call so you pick them up there Where at? I am in 216 row 23

They have pairs for Sunday.

So is Saturday.

YOu don't want a guy sitting around doing nothing when he can be loggin innings and feeling out how to pitch. How many long relief appreances have we needed. Leave him where he is and hope not to need him until Spring of 2007.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ May 20, 2005 -> 03:07 PM) I'm pretty sure that Zambrano is going to peg someone tomorrow, but that might work in our favor with Contreras on the mound. The Count is a big SOB and he can throw a baseball pretty hard. If one of our guys gets hit, the Cubs might be afraid of some retaliation. Timid Cubs are a good thing. The problem is neither guy has great control, it could get ugly.

Tell me about it, watching the play by play (no MLB TV or radio) simply the rolling scroll piss ass crap updates on MLB.com and keying into Soxtalk, make my day. Mother Nature shines on the Chicago White Sox. Gotta go catch the Rock Island and laugh at the cub fans.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ May 20, 2005 -> 02:48 PM) Yea I know but still should be the closers job I would agree but he seems to have earned the opportunity and this looks like a good one.

Walk to Burnitz, don't want to turn the lineup over for the 9th.

Think Zambrano hits anyone tomorrow?

Why no Cliff? Viz walks way to many.
