QUOTE(BearSox @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 07:51 PM) then that would mean Jerry Owens being our starting CF, since Ozzie and KW love him as well, and I think his good final month almost guaranteed him a roster. Plus, like someone else stated, if Erstad is still on this team, he will be getting way too much playing time. And, Jerry Owens is not starting leadoff hitter quality. We need someone who is proven and can slug over .400. I got no problem with Owens on the bench as a pinch runner late in games and such and a spot start here or there, but thats all. I still see Owens as the 4th outfielder next year.

WANG SUCKS WANG Victor crushed that

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 10:56 AM) Umm, because I have been following the White Sox closely since 1970. I get tired of people bringing up scenarios over and over again that have less than a 1% chance of taking place. The Sox are not going to get ARod, sign Bonds, Jones, Hunter or trade for Tejada. If anyone wants o bet on any of those things happening, I'll give them 20-1 odds. If you're not willing to bet $ 100 on that then you must realize that it's not going to happen so why don't why don' we talk about something that may actually happen ? Because I'm in f***ing college. $100 may as well be $5000. And you still aren't including Furcal or Renteria on that list; Renteria was like way, way better than Tejada last year. Perhaps you can attribute some of that to playing against a watered down NL, but he was better all the same. As for all the players you mentioned...I agree on ARod, Bonds, Jones, and Tejada. There's no way I'd bet either way on Hunter. And you are also forgetting Rowand, who put up better numbers than Hunter this year and in his career.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 02:34 PM) Someone will sign him? Did you hear the tapes today of him threatening to kill that woman? He was a steroid freak and now he'll pay for it. What team would want to deal with what is coming for Barry? The woman said he was with that steroid guy who is now in jail all the time. They'd lock the door and Bonds would take the steroids. He's done. No team is that stupid to want that headache for an old guy who can't move. If the Sox sign him, all Sox fans should be finished with the team forever. Luckily they are not dumb enough to sign him. Just like how no team would want Terrell Owens.

QUOTE(forrestg @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 10:54 AM) Get gooch.. Richar may get some playing time at ss in spring training. Uribe will be resigned. Richar could platoon at ss or second.. Besides playing short Uribe can play a decent third if we can't come to some agreement with Crede......Oh I just about forgot Ozuna who is a better infielder than outfielder he needs a spot.... Fields if he can improve at 3rd. Let see that would be Gooch,Uribe Richar, Ozuna, Crede, and Fields well Thome will have to get his glove out get a little more agile because he'll have to play there..... I think I disagree with every single thought in this post.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 02:36 PM) after I type that, he goes and demonstrates their difference... Morales can touch 97, whereas Gio might rarely hit 94. Gio's got a better change though. Morales is filthy.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 11:06 AM) Every single word that flops out of Ron Santo's mouth is 100 times worse than the worst call Hawk's ever made. Santo is beyond atrocious. Even calling him an embarrassment doesn't really convey just how bad he is. Pat Hughes deserves combat pay for dealing with that imbecile. OHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOO

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 10:52 AM) Hahaha. Cubs fans are accusing Webb of having grease on his hat. No matter that he was wiping his sweat on the brim of his cap, he OBVIOUSLY was cheating. Also they are accusing the Dbacks ground crew of softening up the dirt in front of the plate to help his ground balls. That's why they call it home field advantage.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Oct 1, 2007 -> 02:51 PM) Here is one for Rock, a tramp stamp that reads like a book. This is the type that gets the wedding magazines delivered to her house, even through she isnt seeing anyone seriously. Crack kills

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 09:59 AM) Yes and I'd like to have him. I'd prefer to be him, but whatever, not gonna happen, so I'll live.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 08:35 AM) He'll be the best 2B available (I think) so getting him back would probably mean bidding with other interested parties. It's been fun Gooch, but the organization foolishly adores Danny Richar, so thanks for the memories (and the World Series!) You are the fool son.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 06:27 PM) Unfortunately, I have to admit you're right on this. Can anyone seriously tell me that those 2 Yankees/Red Sox series from 03/04 weren't some of the best playoff series you've ever seen? You can watch the same good movie over and over and over again. It's still the same movie, and it gets old after a while.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 08:50 AM) sort of a trivia question, i dont know if any of you would know the answer: Is this the first time that 4 teams have made the playoffs that were not in the playoffs the previous year(since the wildcard expansion)? I cant remember if this is unique or not, the braves were in the playoffs for something like 15 straight years, so it would have been relatively recent if it ever happened I'm pretty sure it has to be. The Braves won the division through realignment and up until 2005, and then last year the Cards made it after making it in 2005. So yeah, it definitely is.

I know the truth, and that is that he obviously must be white. Otherwise Ozzie would have had to have played him more.

QUOTE(BearSox @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 09:32 PM) Looks like I win They aren't gonna bring back Jones because they don't want to spend the money on him and are probably pretty much set on trying to sign Teixeria to an extension. You haven't won yet, though it's possible if they don't. I'd still be surprised if they don't offer him arbitration. I'd also be surprised if Teixeira signed an extension...he kinda has the same super agent who gets his guys to FA, gets them a huge contract, and lets them do whatever they want to.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 12:14 AM) All they need is for 1 other starting pitcher besides Webb to get on a run though, and they can win the whole thing IMHO. You can say that about all 8 teams in the postseason though.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2007 @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 11:38 PM) Tonight was basically the D-backs in a nutshell. Great starting pitching. Good defense. GREAT bullpen. Just enough offense. Sounds familiar. Our pitching was so much better than their's. We rocked.

GTFO Cubs

who was that douche

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 05:35 PM) Felipe Lopez is a switch hitter that just turned 27 and he coud still get better. After eliminating the unreasonable ...i.e. Tejada, ARod etc. and the older/overthehill....i.e. Eckstein, Vizquel etc. the Sox can afford to take a chance on a guy like this that won't cost much right now but could develop into something really special. First, don't include Furcal and Renteria, who will actually be available and are significantly better than Lopez. Secondly, why is Tejada unreasonable? The only reason I can think of is Peter Angelos.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 06:07 PM) Yikes, that looked like an awful call. do not care go Halos

The only 2 things Wrigley Field is good for is getting drunk and finding easy chicks.

If it's not a Jose Valentin and Frank Thomas combo in the booth, I shall never watch a game so long as I live.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 04:27 PM) We've been through this "Wrigley sucks" nonsense before. I think you guys who hate Wrigley Field have got penis envy. "Oh, my Cubs neighbor will make fun of me." "Oh, the media will care more about the Cubs than the Sox." "Oh, our ballpark is newer -- and it's made of advertisings, not steel, so it's unique!" The only guys I have penis envy of are Ron Jeremy and Peter North.
