QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Dec 7, 2010 -> 03:06 AM) The fact that Dunn and Pierzynski both deferred money in order to try and get Konerko back, and Konerko still didn't resign, makes me think Konerko is being a big jerk. I'm starting to think "good riddance" to Konerko. This right here is making me more and more like the thought of D. Lee + a solid reliever in a White Sox uniform next year. KW is trying to get stuff done and Paulie better not screw around and cause us to end up with nothing. If he does, then he'll lose some love among Sox fans.

If all else fails we can always pry Brian Anderson from the Yanks...

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 04:56 PM) cst_sox “I think Putz is headed elsewhere. We wanted him back, but he’s headed elsewhere.’’ KW on Putz returning. less than a minute ago cst_sox “There’s a fine line - when do you risk losing ur Plan B and C in favor of trying 2b as patient as u can with ur Plan A.’’ KW on PK deadline 4 minutes ago KW is losing patience fast. WTF Paulie???

QUOTE (joeynach @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 04:24 PM) KW has since confirmed that the Putz ship has sailed. http://twitter.com/Joeynach Meanwhile there are some relievers and closers available that my be on KW list; Rafael Soriano, Manny Corpas, Kerry Wood, Manny Delcarmen, Grant Balfour, Jess Crain, Matt Guerrier, Aaron Heilman, John Rauch, Takashi Saito, Hideki Okajima, Dan Wheeler, Scott Downs I vote for this guy... simply because he's a freaking mad man!!! He would be so much fun!

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 04:25 PM) what about one of the twins' bullpen arms, like crain or guerrier? Hahaha wouldn't it be great if we signed Jesse Crain, and he was LIGHTS OUT out everytime he pitched against the twins?

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 04:07 PM) KW says he had initial conversation with PK's people. Will lead to more conversations. Not optimistic. Not pessimistic at this stage - Scott Reifert Alright now Paulie come on stop f***ing about and sign on the dotted line. KW has other things to worry about - like the swiss cheese bullpen we got now. SIGN!!!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) Told by #WhiteSox person difficult for team to do Konerko AND Putz. Sox still need bullpen help. Plenty out there. #MLB - Rosenthal Hideki Okajima anyone??

LOL Ozzie: "Joo know what's good about being in Venezuela"...... Ozzie: "Aw nevermind we both married I better not" LOL!!!

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 02:16 PM) Yep, just came here to post that....Here is a LIVE link for those like me without MLB Network.... http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?topic_id=15407782 Sweet!!! Thanks alot!

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 02:15 PM) Ozzie next on MLB Network. lIVE I'm going to burn the offices at ATT-Uverse to the ground if they don't hurry the f*** up and get MLB Network.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 02:11 PM) For those who said they would welcome Bobby Jenks back on a lot smaller deal, would you be confident with him closing? Ozzie has said if Bobby were to come back he would NOT be guaranteed the closer's job. EDIT: fixed Well I think he's only good if he's closing. If we couldn't get Putz or spend more on Soriano, then I guess Jenks would be alright for another run around at a cheaper price. I mean, who else is there? I just wish the thick lump would take his weight more seriously and come back next year in better shape.

QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 02:01 PM) I'd go.. Pierre Beckham Konerko Dunn Rios Quentin AJP Ramirez Morel I just love the 3-6. That's the "danger zone" right there. Man if we could get the old TCQ back from 2008... that 3-6 would be enough to make any opposing pitcher's sphincter pucker up.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 02:03 PM) Things are heating up wonder who plan B is? I'm betting Derrek Lee.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 12:04 PM) jonmorosi #Reinsdorf addresses Konerko, the team's payroll, and who might close: http://bit.ly/eVuqN3 #Chicago #WhiteSox #MLB about 1 hour ago good read, summary. JR: payroll should be around 110 million JM: arizona has had advanced talks with Landis and PK and being in AZ all year may play a role. Come on PK! Go ahead and sign on the dotted line so KW can start addressing the other issues on this team!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 11:51 AM) Before Dunn I assume. Kenny certainly isn't f***in around this offseason though. That's what I like about KW. f*** rebuilding... He wants to win and win NOW.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 11:48 AM) jaysonst Hearing #RedSox viewed #WhiteSox as main competition on Adrian Gonzalez. Adam Dunn AND Adrian Gonzalez??? QUOTE (Wanne @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 11:31 AM) This kind of latent blather needs to stop! I'm too old to pop wood before noon! This.

QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Dec 6, 2010 -> 11:28 AM) Watch KW get Ichiro this week. I know it won't happen, BUT if you added Ichiro to this team along with PK coming back... would the Sox have a lot of national writers and reporters picking them to go to the World Series? I think the national attention would HAVE to be there then.

I'm sick of ATT UVerse not offering MLB Network. This is the time where I really NEED MLB Network. Dammit... Like I said before... I wouldn't be surprised if KW packaged Quentin and and/or Viciedo (and maybe even Floyd or Jackson) together in a trade for a stud outfielder. Can you imagine how good the Sox line up would have been if we moved on David DeJesus before Oakland snagged him?

I'm telling you it would not surprise me one bit if Kenny landed either Curtis Granderson or Matt Kemp.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Dec 3, 2010 -> 12:43 PM) *Kenny's phone ringing* Kenny: Ken Williams here...uh huh.... WHAT? *puts phone down, looks around the room all crazy* Kenny: Yeah, wait... like, you said Linebrink, right?...Yahuh....k, hang on a second... *presses the hold button* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA *picks the phone back up* Kenny: You there? Sure, we can do that... I loled... If anyone ever says anything bad about my GM again, I'm going to hit them with a dragon punch from Street Fighter.

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Dec 1, 2010 -> 12:26 AM) Adam Dunn plays first like he has a beer in his hand and he doesn't want to spill it. Rotflmao this is sig worthy.... ESPECIALLY if Dunn end up here!

He'll go to the NL and dominate.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Nov 30, 2010 -> 09:58 PM) Ok so if Paulie's gone then let's assume we get to go cheap at 1B with Viciedo (anybody wanna predict best case, full time stats for him?). If the $12M for Konerko was really available, then we have $12M to throw at upgrading DH. Dunn/Viciedo/Carlos/NewOutfielder all rotating through DH, 1B and RF. That actually puts 4 good bats rotating in the DH and Dunn can still play 1B the majority of the time. If we really have 12M, we can make some noise. If Paul Konerko isn't playing 1b for the White Sox next year, then I hope Derrek Lee is.

He's about to get PIZZAID!!! You guys think he's worth that much??

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 28, 2010 -> 08:58 PM) It'd probably be set in Communist Russia. The plot would revolve around how everyone is controlled by the government and they decide where these people work and what they do, but in the end, it turns out that the people themselves are the government and they choose where they end up. Oh, and the country is run by a zombie Stalin, and Waldis comes in at the end of the movie and kills him with a spear. I love Soxtalk in the offseason...
