2007 MLB Amateur Draft Thread
QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 04:21 PM) So...it's ok to have NO pick this year to get the same pick next year??? This makes ZERO sense...ZERO. LOOK AT OUR FARM SYSTEM!!!!!!!!!! Does it look like we need another questionable arm? NO! To me, it seems we need top of the line talent. Not more mediocre garbage. Look at the AL Central. Twins, Tigers, Indians, and Royals are all getting better talent wise. The Sox are staying the same. I will not be surprised to see the Sox as the basement dwellers for the Central within the next year or so.

2007 MLB Amateur Draft Thread
I got one thing left to say, Aaron Poreda must put up some crazy numbers this year and move through the organization fast, or else, I don't know what I'm gonna do. Seriously, does this guy not seem like Andrew Sisco part 2? Hard fastball but with no secondary stuff and some command issues.

5 years from now, white sox vs. tigers... Aaron Poreda vs. Rick Rocello. Rick Porcello shuts down the White Sox and Poreda gets his s*** rocked as the Tigers win the Central... I am going to have nightmares of that for a while now.

There goes Josh Smoker.

2007 MLB Amateur Draft Thread
I still can't believe we passed on Porcello. Money should not be a question here. I could see if we have 5 picks in the top 100 or something like that, but we only have 2. It is just stupid. I hate Boras as much as the next guy, but oh well. Give him the big bonus or the major league contract or whatever, and then have our future ace. Now the Tigers get Justin Verlander 2.0.

The Reason This Team is Bad, and Yes: It's Ozzie's Fault
QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 04:06 PM) I can't blame it all on Ozzie either. When a team is going bad like this one is the manager will always be the first to take the heat for it, hopefully KW will keep Ozzie as manager. Hopefully KW won't be in any position to make any decisions as hopefully he will be canned.

Josh Smoker is still available as well? He would have been a much better pick.

Aaron Poreda selected
I am so glad we passed on the best high school pitcher in the draft for what looks like to be Andrew Sisco part II...

Looks like Porcello might be there for the Sox at 25. I don't freaking care how much money he is asking for, this is our time to actually get a pitcher with ace upside. Broadway and McCulloch, whatever. White Sox only have 2 picks within the top 100, money should not be a problem.

What will it take to get Crawford?
Everything... we'd be much better off waiting until after 08 and signing him.

2007 White Sox Catch-All Thread
I have a question for the curse filter, and I don't know where to put, so I'll put it here. I have a tendency to put *'s over the vowel in like the "f" or "s" word. I just subconsciously do it because on a previous board they made you fix the words manually. Is that bad?

Trevor Hoffman records 500th career save
a remarkable feet. It won't be unbreakable like Cy Young's record, but it will certainly be tough cup of coffee trying to accomplish.

Video Game Catch-All Thread
QUOTE(BobDylan @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 07:46 PM) I was about to get one a few days ago for the online play until I saw this thread and the statistics of broken 360's. So I just took God of War II and called it a day. Rainbow Six coming out on the 27th for the PS3...anyone getting it? I cant freaking wait for Vegas for the ps3. I hear the delays are for more fetures with the siaxis controller, so I am excited to see what we will be able to do with that.

And That's A White Sox Loser

Ranger Rongey
QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 12:06 AM) Sounds like he's just a loyal White Sox fan, his defense of the Organization is quite admirable if you ask me. No, he is just a homer. I want someone who isn't afriad to tell it how it is, and not repeat the same dribble Ozzie, KW, and co. have said.

What is the significance of that cicadas today? QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 07:10 PM) If I remember correctly... I think he married the star softball player from Oklahoma State. Most likely, all their kids will like musicals and crap like that...

Mike Lowell for Third Base next year?
QUOTE(southsideirish @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 05:24 PM) Please no. This can't be serious. Not Jeff Cirillo. They had Tony Batista last year, should we go after him. AHHHH!! What's wrong with Jeff Cirillo? He plays great D at 3B, has a little speed left in him, and while he doesn't blow you away with the bat, his veteran presence makes up for that.

White Sox vs. Yankees, 6/6/07 (L)
QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 04:34 PM) and bring Konerko, Uribe and AJ with him. Konerko showed up the past 2 days (except for that one AB yesterday). Looks like batting him 6th is sending a message. But we still need a clean up hitter big time. JD blows horribly right now.

No truth to Dye for Abreu??!!?
QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 01:18 PM) I'd rather shoot myself in the crotch than watch Abreu for the next year and a half. No you wouldn't... you're all talk now, but when the day came, you wouldn't do it

Justin Verlander's $3,000 carton of chocolate milk
QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 6, 2007 -> 11:57 AM) At least the kid lived up to his bargain... If he didn't, it was sue time... That is a funny story. Pocket change for him though. It isn't going to cost him that one meal or a roof over his head.

Joe Crede to 15 day DL, Josh Fields called up from AAA.
Will he go the Sweeney and Owens route of rocking for a while, until Greg Walker gets to pick his mind and get the crazy thought of pull pull pull stuck in his head?
