QUOTE (scenario @ Mar 10, 2009 -> 02:38 PM) Yeah... that's what they 'say'... but when you look into the background of where he actually played (instead of what his agent said)... it looks like he was primarily an outfielder. Because SS is a premier position, it makes perfect sense his agent would play that position up because it adds to his value. So, I'm trying to filter out fact from fiction... because it seems pretty relevant to the Sox situation. Why are we committing SS to a guy who, it seems, has never been a full-time shortstop? I mean... let's put this in perspective. Is it possible that Chris Getz has played more games at SS in his career than Alexei? Again, I may be wrong... and if so somebody straighten me out on the facts. Why on numerous occasions does Alexei himself say, SS is his natural position? I remember reading a lot of articles from official White Sox website, and him saying that.

The time change has everyone all confused.

He's doing pretty good in camp so far, good prediction scenario.

QUOTE (GREEDY @ Mar 7, 2009 -> 09:58 PM) I wish he would end up with the White Sox as the starter. Even though he: - Didn't bring a World Series to Chicago baby(Bringing one to Florida is nuttin!) - Sucks at baserunning (According to Hawk/WSox fans: Running the bases is 99% instincts/skill and only 1% speed) - Doesn't love WWF Wrestling (It's not fake, they are f***ing professional athletes, they really get hurt; everybody knows that) - Isn't Polish (Too many damn Latins on the team already, This is America!) - Would be trouble in the clubhouse (Any on-mound jawing with Javy, is Javy's fault) - Actually throws out baserunners (Mike MacDougal would just assume you let him concentrate on the batter) - Will not rock a peroxide mullet (Hard to relate to a guy with a crew cut, I like a guy that looks like my mechanic) - Does not call a great game (Or relay the signals from Cora/Coop as well) - Is not a mother f***iing grinder (See "Isn't Polish" bullet) - He prolly loves the Cubs and he definitely has no idea how the second verse in "Don't Stop Believin'" goes (That is the tipping point) Did AJ piss in your cereal?

It's just not meant to be Mike.

Gameday is behind, but another good inning for Clayton.

I read somewhere Jeter and Rollins will alternate playing.

For those who are not watching Matt Thornton just struck out J. Votto looking. Matt is throwing heat. WBC: USA vs. Canada

Owens in LF.. Wise in CF

Allen having a day.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 6, 2009 -> 04:00 PM) I thought pakistan was pretty good too. So that is probably why baseball isnt big down under? Did you hear the news about that Pakistan - Sri Lanka few days ago?

I'm loving this banner, props to whoever deserves it.

Pretty sure Torres and Restovich are in for Alexei and Carlos.

That is one huge 19 year old.

Viciedo on deck.

Sexy, 9-2.

Solid single by Becks.

Beckham has some weird batting gloves.

Flowers with a single to right field.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 6, 2009 -> 03:23 PM) That was talked about on here, he was pretty much called a pussy. Kid was the only bright spot during that season, and he got sent back to AAA, didn't deserve it. His stint with the Sox last year was awful, I wasn't aware of his injury till the end of the season.

RBI single for Allen.

2 run single, Great job Josh.

Loaded for Fields.

Becks scores Flowers, bad baserunning by Kroeger, gets tagged for an out.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Mar 6, 2009 -> 03:07 PM) Does Australia have any major league players? I looked at the rosters few days ago, they have a lot of guys in the Twins organization.
