QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:24 PM) You really think, right now, if we added Gonzalez tomorrow to this lineup and only had to give up minor leaguers, that we'd be in position to compete for the division? Yes, because i think if we brought him in, it would be under the pretense that we could secure him for a few years. IF that's the case, we'll be competing for the divison for years to come.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:22 PM) Balta and I are in agreement that we shouldn't pursue Berkman unless we get within a few games and everyone starts playing better. Put me in this camp. There's no need to give up your system for an aging veteran and on a futile division chase. A-Gone is different.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:20 PM) But with the absolute lack of another minor league pitcher that is projecteable as a future Sox starter, Hudson's value is extremely high. Good thing that are core starters are young.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:18 PM) He's got to get things ironed out in the minors. He's not going to get to the bigs and figure things out there. There's a select few guys who do. I don't know why, but i get the feeling that he's one of those guy who needs his ass thrown in the fire.

"White Sox Teamwork. It's black or white." OH. MY GOD. Somebody throw a pie or something!!!!

What a pleasant suprise.

Danksy with a double.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:14 PM) I have Marcum in fantasy baseball my heading is spinning right now.... couple of hard hit balls in a row gotta like that I have Josh Beckett. I fail to see your pain.

Atta boy, Alexei!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:11 PM) But only a .765 OPS. Similar strikeout rate to last year. I think he's a guy who is going to have to face major league pitching before we get a good read of him. That K-rate will either damn him, or force him to make adjustments.

MARK PROVING ME WRONG SINCE MAY 7th 2010~

DO NOT TURN HIM LOOSE, OZZIE! SHUT UP HAWK

So, damn close

Stop swinging at 2-0, Mark!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:07 PM) Now the challenge for Teahen is to figure out how to hit into the DP with the man on 2nd, rather than 1st. Not really his M.O. Beware of the lineout DP.

TCQ!

QUOTE (fathom @ May 7, 2010 -> 09:03 PM) make it the last two seasons, last season was just as awful. At least we have 2 walkoff homers last season. Last year we had Beckham, this year we have Santos. Yay, great to know we can look forward to three innings a week from a relief pitcher. God willing, we'll be talking about the encouarging steps Flowers, Hudson and Danks2 have taken at the major league level by the end of the year.

f***.

HAHAHHAHAHHAAHAHHAAH

Omar Vizquel strikes out like a champ.

Juan Pierre grounds out to 2nd. The Sun comes out in the morning, the moon at night. Some things never change,

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 08:46 PM) The Cubs's opponents keep saying the same thing. I enjoy you.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2010 -> 08:47 PM) Because the Cubs are legendary for not having their young "talent" start off hot and then slump. Or get brutally hurt.

QUOTE (The Gooch @ May 7, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) I actually have the inside scoop for next year. Our bench will consist of Ken Griffey Jr, Carl Everett, Sandy Alomar, and Timo Perez (for Ozzie) You read it wrong. Jayson Nix is the 25th man, but Alomar gets the majority of the play in the infield. He was a great defender in his prime, and his brother was great so Ozzie goes with his gut and figures, "Why the f*** not?"

I just looked up and saw that it was the 4th inning. This game should be over by 10:00!
