I don't see a major problem with Suppan...he didn't put up good stats....but if he came cheaply, than I wouldn't mind it....say we get him for $1 mill, or possibly even less....and Rauch pitches better than him out of ST. Rauch gets the spot...simply put....and then we either cut Suppan or use him out of the pen. He's pitched over 200 innings the last 4 years and he would be a good backup plan....in our offense, he'd win 7-10 games, if not more. It's a win-win situation....either we get a better starter out of Suppan than Rauch(highly doubtful in my mind) or we get another arm out of the pen. I mean, if that money can go towards Jose Cruz Jr or IRod, than I'd say save it...but who knows. And you know what...maybe KW is just blowing smoke out of his ass again...he's done it before....SEVERAL times.

Both!

In that case, they have a number of pitchers that could take over as closer. But their bullpen would be weakened with the loss of Guardado...maybe not Guardado himself, but they'd lose a good reliever or setup man. Unless they used Tony Fiore...

C-Dubs post in this thread....from 5986....that is Mark Buehrle's family....I think we can believe Buehrle's family over the s*** and smoke KW blows out his ass.

Uhhh....come again?

And it gives Manuel something to tinker with....give Pudge 100-120 games at catcher and 20 or so at DH....give Thomas 100-120 games at DH and 20 or so at 1B......and give Paulie 100-120 games at 1B and 20 or so at DH. Now we won't have to see Jose in CF or 3B or something like that.

Any suggestions? "KW's a lying sack of s*** who can't spend a dollar when he only has 50 cents" or something like that. Or you could go with the classic "FIRE KW NOW!!!"

Killa...I think it's time to change your sig again.

There is only one reason why the Cubs are higher than us. Because this poll was a jip. The Cubs finished 8th in STD. Excuse me if I'm incorrect, but friendly? I know they call them the friendly confines, but when a lot of people are drunk, the bathrooms are crowded and what not else(as I have never been to Wrigley Field and I never plan on going), how can it be friendly? BTW....I like the fact that soxnet.net is getting some recognition....great job guys! Keep it up!

This surprises you? This is the same guy that traded an unhealthy Mike Sirotka to the Blue Jays for David Wells, and he said "he didn't know." This is the same guy that said "You can't spend a dollar if you only have 50 cents." This is the same douchebag that saved the organization $15,000 by taking it off Buehrle's contract. This is that same clown. I was sure of it all along.....if he doesn't offer Buehrle a contract at the end of this year worth millions and him staying in the organization, I am going to be pissed. Williams obviously doesn't like Buehrle....otherwise, he wouldn't have taken that $15,000 off last year, and he wouldn't have lied about the s*** he said about it this year.

That's pretty fast in South America!

It's 11:00 PM central right now, and on ESPN Classic, it's the game from 1997 or so I guess....anyways, it's the game where fat-ass David Wells throws a perfect game against the Twinkies. Maybe our fat-ass can throw a perfect game against the Twinkies this year.....let's hope!

Shiit....I got away from the pigs one time when it looked like there was no way in hell I would....it's not that hard. All you gotta do is keep driving...don't let them stop you. Just keep driving until you get to the place you need to go, change your clothes, and you're done. Speaking of Vice City....I gotta funny as story to tell. It is one of the easier missions, but the mission where go to the golf course and kill the guy....well, I drove most of the golf carts off the edge into the pond....anyways, I shoved one off so it was just on the hill. I went up the stairs and started getting chased by the guards. As they were all chasing me, the guy I was supposed to kill got in the golf cart that was on the hill and drove into the lake....holy s***, that was like the funniest thing I'd ever done in any video game. I was laughing quite hard. It may not seem like a funny story...but I was laughing quite hard, not expecting him to do that.

I don't think he'll b**** about not closing for the Sox. His beef was a good one....they had Alfon-six-a closing...the six-fingered freak. He sucks at closing. Gordon is a better closer than Alfon-six-a, even when he's recovering from surgery. Atleast he wouldn't give up a 3-run homer to Edgar Renteria like Alfon-six-a did....here, he's setting up Billy Koch. Billy Koch is a bit better than Antonio Alfon-six-a.

It's not like that's a bad thing....in fact, some of the time it's a good thing. Now if JR will open the checkbook and sign both he and Buehrle to long term deals....we'll be set. EDIT: Next year, that is

Both of our catchers are of the Spanish-speaking variety...note that I said both and not all 3....Josh Paul isn't a real catcher in my mind.

I'd say this gives us a lesson in life. Don't f*** with HSC.

If I remember correctly, Munoz is only 21....he's got plenty of time to stretch out his arm, and with the curve ball that he has, I think that is a very good thing. If we could have our very own Barry Zito for the future, and we resigned Colon, that would be a very dominant 1-2-3 for us in the future. Hell, even if we don't resign Colon, that would be a very dominant 1-2-3 for us in the future. God....life as a White Sox fan

I think that Rodman was on the 96-97 team, and then was on the team the next 3 years, until they had a fire sale and sucked and have sucked ever since. Belle signed in the offseason of 1997....so who knows...both moves were pretty close together.

Can you tell me why Wells ruined team chemistry? So he called out Frank Thomas and they had an argument....they then talked and made up, and Wells continued to pitch, while Thomas underwent surgery. Wells than helped Mark Buehrle mature as a pitcher....without David Wells, we would be a s***ty team today...we wouldn't have had to have gone through the Ritchie fiasco, but we sure as hell wouldn't have Colon. I'd say the Wells trade was positive in more than one way...the only way it was negative was the fact that it was an embarrassment for the White Sox AT THE TIME, being shouldergate and all....in the end, it was a very good move for what it did as a whole....just MHO anyways.

If they for some unknown reason lost Guardado, then they do have Romero, Santana, or possibly Hawkins in the bullpen to take over as closer....but why in the hell would they lose Guardado? I don't understand that.

Didn't Belle make an unscene gesture at the Cleveland crowd when they went back there?

Who do you suppose would win in a boxing match between the two? or a wrestling match? or an arm-wrestling match? or a White Sox trivia match? Just to throw it out there.

She's right most of the time....so I think Miguel will be all right.

by 2005 alot of those guys will be traded away and other prospects will have replaced them...how many prospects from '00 are still in the system??? If I could do a little research on that, I could give you an answer. Of course, if anyone did a little research on that, anyone could give you an answer!
