QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Jul 6, 2009 -> 01:23 PM) Realistically, how many good years does Roy have left? I'd say 2-3 real good years, and 2-3 solid years.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Jul 6, 2009 -> 09:16 AM) They're activating Josh Hamilton from rehab, I mean, the DL. Undeserving "All-Star." *shakes fist* Hopefully Hamilton opts out. As for Smoak, it should be only a matter of time. In 194 AB's, he's got 8 homers, 34 RBI (that's a 25 HR, 105 RBI pace over a full season), has more BB's than K's (42 BB, 38 K), a .977 OPS, and he's a pretty slick defender at 1B.

What is the contract like?

Some guesses: Your Love - Flowers (Already knew that one) God Bless Texas - Danks (thanks to heads) Hero - Shelby Boom - Cook Amazin - Gartrell Devil Went Down to Georgia - CJ Retherford Blow Me Away - Santeliz??? Renegade - Hernandez???

Only beach vollyball.

Get fat.

That's awesome for Viciedo and Flowers... the AA All-Star game is in Birmingham, right? If so, you lucky bastard JPN!

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 09:11 PM) Considering the topic was about Wood, this probably could have been worded better. And yes, I realized that this would happen as well

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 09:01 PM) Isn't the main complaint about him the same as Josh Fields? Inability to hit quality, "plus" major league FB's or even anything 88-89+ on a consistent basis? I've always thought his problems were similar to Fields in that he has a lot of talent and raw ability (reasons for success in high school, college, minors, etc.), but has bad fundamentals and slow bats (hence not being able to hit major league fastballs). Plus, both look very tense up there, like they aren't ready to hit.

Question... could part of Jose Contreras resurgence this year be because we have a spanish (Castro speaks both english and spanish) speaking catcher behind the plate? Do you think this helps with the pitcher-catcher chemistry/communication?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 09:03 PM) If we get a legit CF I'll show you some wood. Why am I not surprised that this joke not only came, but came from you?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 08:31 PM) Doesn't sound like it was very good. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,7433381.story What worries me is trying to have him play on it, will make it worse?

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 08:01 PM) John Curtis was moved up to W-S, so Phegley will probably catch a lot more now. JPN, how about a weekly update on futuresox that just quickly goes over all the minor league transactions within the organization? I think it'd be cool to have it posted like once a week on monday to let everyone know what the minor league moves were. Like this past week, we got Curtis moving up, and I know there was another roster move or two.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 1, 2009 -> 01:05 AM) You should use this picture instead, cause he doesn't even wait until he gets showered up and goes to the clubs, he just does it as soon as the game ends...

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 07:35 PM) But I chose my words carefully. They were a bad team but not a neglected-by-ownership team Okay, I see your point.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 07:22 PM) Wacking it, pretty much. No, that's when you actually, you know, do it. But lets say I'm sitting in class and there's a hot teacher, and I start to day dream about her... what would that be known as if talk radio is mental masturbation?

Miggy (I'm calling Miguel Gonzalez "Miggy" now) keeps hitting, 1-3 today... He went 1 for 2 today with base stealers, but had another passed ball (make that 5 now).

The almighty one went 2-2 with an rbi and a walk. Played 5 innings today... He is now batting .800 in AAA.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 07:17 PM) I think his stance is more - dont go off the cliff just because they lost a game If the Sox were to be the Pittsburgh Pirates, he might be more approving of some of the hate - were it presented in a suitable hate-package. Have some reasoning and he will respect your opinion or debate in a productive way. I guess you didn't hear him in 07.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 07:14 PM) Phil Jackson once said talk radio is just mental masturbation. If that is mental masturbation, what is it that I am doing when I'm day dreaming about Scarlett Johannson?

2010 White Sox Rotation: 1. Halladay 2. Buehrle 3. Danks 4. Floyd 5. Chapman

Let em have him, Chapman is ours!!!!

Zobrist is definitely deserving, he's been awesome this year. Adam "don't call me Pacman" Jones is borderline, but he does have the best average of all CF's, has put up some real good numbers, and is really good on D. Granderson though, he has no business being on the team.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 5, 2009 -> 04:47 PM) bumped after a 2 game losing streak? lol It's the buyer or seller thread, not the seller thread.

Is it okay if you think Chris Rongey qualifies as one of those idiots? What was the name we gave him on here during 07? I believe it was Pink Fuzzy Bunny or something like that.
