QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 4, 2010 -> 03:48 PM) Jones has already had issues with back spasms. Well Jones is playing LF. I care about Quentin's health over Jones' and Pierre's. DH Q-uperman.

Weighed myself again today. Down almost 8 pounds total. I always weigh myself BEFORE I work out though, so hopefully after tonight's workout, I am down to 264 or lower. Starting Weight (4/7/10) - 272 LB Trips to Gym - 11 times Current Weight (5/7/10) - 264 LB Total Loss: 8 lbs So 8 lbs in the first month.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 3, 2010 -> 09:45 PM) JP has given up 1 ER in his last 12 1/3 IP. I think he's figured it out. And like 3 hits. and 15 Ks.

2 Gordons on one team? Can it be done?

Well....at least I have Brett Gardner on my fantasy team....

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2010 -> 01:15 PM) He really is just an awful player. FYP

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ May 2, 2010 -> 01:00 PM) No offense, but why in the hell would you want to go to college in Rensselaer? haha Legacy. I am transferrring to Ball State next year though.

Nolan Reimold is doing even worse than Beckham. Hitting for a lower average, striking out at a higher pace. Not like that's an excuse for Beckham, but it's not just him right now.

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ May 2, 2010 -> 12:55 PM) In Indiana? Yes.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 2, 2010 -> 12:28 PM) Where do you go? St. Joseph's College

I am so exstatic that the location of my college does not allow me to see White Sox games on Comcast Sports Net or WGN, but still close enough for TBS to be blacked out for this game! Woo!!

As long as this means Dye will DH, and Jones will play the OF w/ Pierre to the bench. Even if they want to platoon Pierre/Dye at DH, I am fine. Basically, anything to take ABs away from Pierre.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:05 PM) This is the 3rd 10+ HR month of Konerko's career. He had 10 in June of '04 and 12 in June of '02. More like 10 in about 3 weeks.

Bringing that number down! Down 8% since this thread started.

QUOTE (chisoxfan09 @ Apr 30, 2010 -> 12:02 AM) As crazy as this sounds, I could believe quite a few starting NL pitchers have highers batting averages than most of our starting lineup. Dan Haren has a high BA than anyone in baseball.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 04:43 PM) good, i hate him. Milton is right. We Chicagoans ARE racist!

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Apr 29, 2010 -> 03:58 PM) In Bobby's defense, it is a lot more difficult to come in as a closer in a non-save situation. Now that being said, he hasn't looked too great this year either. Yeah, the plate is always smaller and the batters are juiced and the mound is lowered for non-save situations. It's bulls***.

Of that list, I'll take Buddy Bell.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Apr 28, 2010 -> 12:29 PM) Who would you be willing to give up for Berkman? Hudson.

So.....clearly this is an old thread, but I recently started to try and lose weight. I am pretty overweight, really. I am actually not nearly as big as I weigh, I guess I hide it pretty well. Here is a picture of myself from about a month ago. Maybe it's just me, but I feel like I don't look like someone who weighs close to 300 pounds.... 5'11 Starting Weight (4/7/10) - 272 LB Trips to Gym - 8 times Current Weight (4/27/10) - 268 LB Total Loss: 4 lbs Pretty happy w/ that, just wish I had more time to go. With being a full time student, having a job at school, being a devoted Sox/Hawks fan, and leaving every weekend, it's really hard to find time to go during the 4 days I am usually on campus. My workout is generally the same every time. I start on the eliptical machine and run between 1-1.4 miles in 13 minutes. I then go and do 3-4 sets on the rowing machine. It's one where I sit on a sliding seat, strap my feet in, and then pull back on a row chain and push back w/ my legs. Looks like this.... I also do 3-4 sets using a 15LB kettle weight where I stand with my feet about 2 feet apart, hold the weight straight out in front of me w/ one arm, then crouch down, bring the weight down and through my legs, then swing back up, switch it to my other hand in one motion, and then go back down again. I do this for 1 minute straight, then do the rowing for 1 minute, then go back and forth. After the rowing and kettle weight, I go back on the elliptical and jog for another 13 minutes and do about 1-1.2 miles. So I end up w/ about 2-2.5 miles total. Total workout takes me about 45-50 minutes. It has seemed to work for me. The best part is that I still have not really changed my diet very much. I eat less snacks, and more water, but I am not a salad person, or eating vegetables all the time. Still eat the normal cafeteria food and the slice of a pizza a few times a week.

Is it just me, or has it seemed like Flowers has not been playing much lately? Did not play the 18th, 20th, 22nd, 25th, or 28th.

Meh, no thanks. I would rather take Lance Berkman since he will come much cheaper.

Jake Peavy with the White Sox. 3-1, 42 1/3 IP, 37 H, 22 ER, 4 HR, 21 BB, 33 K, 4.67 ERA, 1.37 WHIP
