QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 02:18 PM) Who is this mythical figure? I'm not so sure it's not Aaron Rowand. He once killed a bear with his hands, you know.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 02:16 PM) I agree with you. But there's a good chance we might not be able to upgrade our rotation. If that's the case, I think we should improve other parts of the team. So it goes to reason that a CF who hits .270 with 35-40 bombs would be an upgrade over Anderson. So....we're gonna sell off the farm for Andruw Jones?

QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 02:14 PM) I am wondering if we should put McCarthay in the starting rotation at some point? His long sessions in the pen have made me comfortable with dealing Freddy at this point.

QUOTE(quickman @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 02:12 PM) what no andersen update on your post? What, no criticism of any part of the team in your post?

Let's see if the bottom part of the lineup can get us going. A hit by BA pushes him above 200.

Riske's good when he throws strikes. As anybody can be. So.....throw some strikes, David.

Frankensteiner.....why do we need a new CF? Enlighten us.

I'm also encouraged by the fact that Brian has struck out only 3 times in his last 12 games.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 02:00 PM) What metric are you using to come to that conclusion? Gut feeling? Or his 346 average this month, and the fact he looks like the only one with a plan at times.

I misspoke earlier. Brian is hitting only .346 this month.

Hang wiffem for Dye.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 01:56 PM) Hopefully in the minors. Yup. let's send down our best hitter right now.

:uhoh JIM

BA BA: .198 Hitting 360 this month.

Nice job Brian.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 01:40 PM) Buehrle just quit and let all of teammates down. I have never seen a pitcher who quits on his team after errors as much as Mark. This is the third straight start he just didn't care. Yeah, I'm sure he doesn't care. After those first two runs, he said, f*** it, I don't care if we win.

It's a total team effort losing today. Our team needs to lose by 20 today. We need to wake up or something.

Goddammit Alex.

Rosenthal mentioned it in a column.

Run into one, Juan.

I hope Freddy is taking notes on Mussina for tomorrow. At least about first pitch strikes....

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 01:29 PM) I don't buy the tired excuse at all. Especially coming off of the all-star break. As I've said all year, with the money we have invested in these 5 guys, if they continue to underachieve, we don't deserve to make the playoffs. You're right.

Nice piece of hitting Jermaine. LETS GO AYYYJ

QUOTE(SadChiSoxFanOptimist @ Jul 15, 2006 -> 01:27 PM) I'm with you...he's slow and hittable. Getting consistently RIPPED. Pitching like a Pony Leaguer. Think the Cards still want him? Hell yes. 29 other teams would want a guy with a 4 ERA that never gets hurt and throws with his left hand.
