I guess everyone now knows that Everett and frank can coexist. Injuries will happen. Just wait a day.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 04:37 PM) Yes. He is a shareholder of the White Sox. He watches almost every game with JR in JR's box. Only JR, Frank Thomas and Corg have actually ever seen Frank's contract. JimH and friends sent that phony to the showers a year ago. Jim has no friends!

never got a vm, call me again, what did you want.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 03:15 PM) Yes, can we not bring it up again, it would be appreciated. It does not belong on this board, but in answer to your question, yes. You know its almost to the day the anniversary of that event. Sorry I won't bring it up again.

A whitesox season ticket holder can purchase scout seats on a game by game basis if they ask there sox agent. If your friends with one of those people they can reach out on your behalf.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 12:13 PM) In the first, the error allowed Sullivan to get to third on the steal of 2nd. Helton singled - so it was ruled that Sullivan would have scored on that hit anyway - therefore the error had no difference on Sullivan scoring, so it's earned. In the 2nd, the error on Ozuna had a run score and a guy move to 3rd. However, remember that it was a single with an error. After 2 strike outs, there was a single and a double, so it was ruled that those base runners would have scored anyway, and the extra bases that Ozuna game them were irrelevant. Hope that makes sense. Many times you have to figure out the impact the errors had AFTER the inning is over. It can't always be ruled that "those runs will be unearned" right when an error happens. Very good explaination, thanks for that

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 12:05 PM) damn, Hawk explained it too, and I cant remember. Do you remember the situations with the errors? Maybe that would help stimulate my memory. Sure : first inning- Sullivan leads off with a single, sullivan steals 2nd and goes to third on a wdger error(Throw) scores on heltons single. 2nd inning: atkins leads off with single, Garalto singeled and advances to thrid on Ozunas throwing error. Atkins comes home on the error.

Baseball gods I need some help here for my 77 year old uncle. Last nights game there were two errors which led to Rockies runs in the first and second. Why were those runs earned. In every newspaper and every box score on the net claimed the runs were earned. I need to better understand why. I know there are soem very smart kids out there. So have at it.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 10:31 PM) What the f*** is this s***?! This guy throws 100 mph, he better not hit any of our guys. His control is like the guy from Bull Durham

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 10:27 PM) Maybe it will be Munoz? Munoz blows, championship teams trade for a winner, they don't bring up Munoz or walker while they are going for it.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 10:18 PM) The tv guys are saying Marte's velo is down. 88 on the fastball. Herm Schneider walks Marte off the mound, something is the matter with him. Jim, It has probably been coming on. Marte has been off the past couple of outings. i bet he hurt it last week when he pitched alot. If so this is KW's first test.

QUOTE(farmteam @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 05:14 PM) Perhaps I'm forgetting some key moment this season, but when did Timo play first base? last week against the angels. cost us the game along with walker

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) Damn they are going crazy with all these pitchers.... Kind of makes you think they will trade some pitchers this year. These guys can backfill.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 11:59 AM) Keith, they did what you wanted, pick a high profile guy who will be an extremely tough sign. Let's hope it works out for the Sox. Not a bad strategy with a 19th round pick. I can't help it... Does he have the same upside and the same promise as Joe Borchard? Sorry couldn't help it. We got burned on giving borchard big money, we won't chase this guy.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) 2nd round actually. He's been on the DL, too soon to tell about him. Patience appears to be the word with Lucy. got it, you know what I will call it though right? we can debate at the bar tonight, off to t - ball ...later

Well, we took a second round catcher last year, and I knwo its early but if people are clamoring for a catcher I assume this guy won't make it. Would we call this a wasted pick?

QUOTE(danman31 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:50 PM) Well there's Donald Lucy who struggled in Great Falls and will repeat there this season. Adam Ricks is a IF/C that walks a lot, but low average at Kanny (see my profile). Josh Hansen, also at Kanny, is playing 1B, OF, C, and DH. He is hitting about .270 with good power numbers. Yep its lucy, didn't we burn a 3rd or 4th pick on him?

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:44 PM) Totally agree on this, thought for sure they'd take at least one catcher in the earlier rounds. Jim, I know I stated this earlier, but didn't the sox pick up two catchers last year? i thought they did. Do they suck?

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:15 PM) I want to thank those who have been providing draft updates, looking up obscure statistics, and commenting on the players they know. Also, personally I feel there is nothing wrong with asking about a current Sox minor leaguer who was mentioned by Jason as a comparison to a draftee during this lengthy thread. This board is for learning. If all the info about a guy was posted in this thread and someone didn't take the time to read the damn thread, that's one thing. I ask questions about our minor league guys all the time at the spur of the moment and I certainly don't expect to be characterized or called names for doing so ... that is not what SoxTalk is all about. LOL, I am sticking up for a guy I argue with all the time. Let's buy the devils some ice skates. By the way, the person in question is far from lazy and far from conceited. A little odd sometimes, but hey. And now he will start arguing with me for sticking my nose in. Can't win ... or at least I let him think that. Back on topic, I like what the Sox are doing today, I have no issues with it. Hey had to start dinner for the kids, Nikki with t Ball tonight. See you at 8:15, Nice post by the way. Nice to see you understand the Real me! ( The Who)

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 04:32 PM) I was joking quick, relax, I was poking fun at Mr Midol who is attacking you. careful rock you might be next. You have a lot of posts as well. PS I think we bought placeware. Its not called that anymore!

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 04:29 PM) Im on placeware closing a software deal as well, I still looked up his numbers. good for you. I didn't still don't see why I am called lazy. Just don't answer.

QUOTE(Randar68 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 04:22 PM) 1) Wrong. 2) You have 2600 posts but you're too big a lazy ass to look it up yourself because you're too busy negotiating 5 million dollar software deals over the phone??? put the mirror away, Mr. Vain. 3) Just trying to decide who the next 18 year old to fail is? Wow, Mr Positive Outlook. Glad to see not only do you waste other people's time, but your own as well. Shocking, considering how self-important you are. Look this could turn ugly fast, you started it and for the sake of this thread which seems to be productive on the draft, I will disperse. You are way off on your comments. I am not vain, convicted maybe, but not vain. I am not lazy, Just do not have the time, I said ignore me next time, please take the advice. You have more interest and time following the kids, thats great, I do not have as much. I asked a simple question, you took exception, and jason provided the answer. It was nice of him to do that. I thanked him and I get crap from you. I explained my reasoning, and you threw it in my face. The reasoning is still true despite what you think. again I ask for you to put me on ignore, I do not want to waste your time.

QUOTE(Randar68 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 04:14 PM) Wow, Big f***in deal. I guess that means you're more important and have to ask lazy ass questions of others while it would take you 30 seconds to figure it out for your damn self. don't answer don't waste your time. I am sure thats good enough for you. I figure your between the age of 18-25, you know the entitled. Next time just ignore it. Not trying to start a mix up. Just ignore it next time. Please do not waste your time with me and my silly questions.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 04:03 PM) Not bad. He missed about a month of the season but is back in the rotation with Winston Salem. 3.90 ERA in 30 innings of work. He's given up 26 hits while striking out 24 thank you jason
