Neal's hidden No-Hitter
QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 03:53 PM) Checking through the game log, Neal Cotts hasn't given up a hit since May 29th. In his last 7 appearences, covering 9.2 IP, he has stuck out 10 while walking 4 and not allowing a hit. Didn't Shingo retire 27 straight last year

Questions for Dave Wilder
What are your thoughts on the Willy Wonka remake and do feel Johnny Depp handled the role you played so well as adequetly as you would've liked? Also, going into a draft is there a certain mindset to focus on one aspect and really hit it hard, (i.e. pitching, specific positon, high school guys, JUCO, College guys, etc.) rather they the so-called best available player theory we hear in most draft speak?

Terry Boers rips Sox tradition
Boers was moronetti before he took his crap to radio. He is a negative dolt like most idiots on that station. It sucks that the sox are moving there as there isn't a good broadcaster on that station North, B&B, no afternoon programming at all, Murphy is a complete clown, late night. They got the Sox because other than North nobody makes any money on that station. If they are paying murphy more than minimum wage they are stupid.

Sox @ Padres 6/10/05 Game Thread
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 10:27 PM) Hate to say it...but even with that miss in the 9th, that play by Rowand in the 7th gives him my Defensive MVP. Saved 2 runs with one dive. Now that's a web gem. We better have somethin in the web gems list on ESPN tonight. But he made an error in the 9th that cost us a run.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 10:25 PM) GAME OVER!!!!!!!!!!! I think I just lost a little bit of confidence in Hermanson, though. He gave up a bloop single. It was an unearned run. He is going to blow a couple before the year is over.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 10:13 PM) If Marte is on...he's still the best lefty in our pen. He's been off lately while Cotts has been on. If Marte can turn it around, he's still the most valuable lefty. He gets his control back, and still nobody can hit him. Is he available?

Cotts in the 9th for Klesko and Giles, what'd he throw 7 pitches???? As anyone that as read my stuff over the last 5 minutes, glad I am not the manager.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 10:06 PM) Becasue cotts is on fire! I agree but there are back to back lefties in a few spots (Klesko and Giles) and Cotts could have been good there but I was wrong on Timo and will hopefully be wrong again.

Feliz to the Sox?
Why does everyone rag on Crede but Konerko seems to be getting a free pass. See my thoughts in the Ozuna post. Konerko/Tracy for Freel and Casey.

Ozuna
He was three for three and made a nice on the ball hit down the line while he was in on the grass. The throw shoudl've been knocked down by Konerko and was a hit anyway. The base running blunder was sad but he did get three hits. Also, how often has he played. As far as utility players go I'll take him over most teams guys. I think a better topic is how long do we suffer through Konerko's inability to get a big hit. The guy is hitting behind three fast guys with OBP's all over .350. That means he comes up with an average of a man on every time (realtivly speaking). Take the HR's out and he is pathetic at driving in runs. RISP average for a 4th hitter needs to be above .200. Especially for a guy making $8.5M a year. In my book Ozuna is fine.

I'll be at the game but I have to work so I am not sure of the game plan at this time.

Scott Skiles
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:25 PM) You're kidding...that's wonderful news. And 1 day after the talks supposedly exploded underneath them. Man, what the Hell happened today? Sounded like JR and Skiles got it done. Funny how this whole thing worked. I wonder what f***nuts Mariotti is going to write about now that both coaches got long-term deals.

Every Loss is magnified when you're this good
QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Jun 6, 2005 -> 10:45 PM) I just wanted to add Garcia did indeed come to the rescue. 103 pitches over 8IP. With a 9-3 lead into the 9th Ozzie could go the least used Shingo. The rest of the bullpen all got a rest tonight. I was a big fan of the Garcia trade. Everything I saw in his numbers told me he was perfect for this team. He's proving that this year. The difference between winning & losing the division is the road record. I proved that in looking at the team from 1999-2004. The home records were very similar but in 2000 the road record was the difference. Garcia has always had solid road numbers. I know I write a lot but I also type very fast so abbreviations come to mind right away. It looks like I spend a lot of time formulating a post but I really don't. I spend more time looking up the stats to support it but even then I'm pretty fast in doing so. My mind is so deeply entrenched in computer science that it's no wonder my posts reflect that kind of discipline. As an example with this team RON (runners on) has become so entrenched in my posts that it comes as 2nd nature to me now. RON http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/battin...=2&type=reg RISP http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/battin...Type=2&type=reg I can't really explain why we are .713OPS team in RISP but a .771 team in RON. But I do think it means the best is yet to come. I neglect typo's as well as buffer overruns as well. Sorry about that. Just keep doin what your doin, we'll all figure it out eventually. Actually your posts have lead to a new way to discuss the game. 15 pitches into an inning with a reliever I now look for the hitter to be more selective as the pitcher has begun to tire.

Sox better off In Addison...
Didn't the Metra stop recently gain approval. This would make this park as easily accessible as possible.
