QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Oct 5, 2010 -> 08:13 AM) Will we try to keep him by moving KW up? Everyone keeps saying this but I don't get it. Move KW up to what and for what?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 07:01 PM) Even if the Sox don't bring back AJ or Konerko or Jenks, you have to figure at least one will be replaced with someone pretty good. As crazy as this might seem, I think the Sox are sitting pretty for 2011. The AL Central has 2 awful teams, another team that will have more holes to fill than the Sox, and just may be awful as well, and yet another team that you have to figure may come back to the pack a little. I don't see Carl Pavano duplicating 2010. Even if Nathan and Morneau come back at full strength, I think their pitching is going to feel the effects of a long season. I think the Sox have to quit kissing Minnesota's ass and go out and beat them. Its time for the Sox to hate them. Make it like NY/Bos. If the Sox ever figure that out, they should dominate the division and they will be in the playoffs 6 out of 9 years. QFMFT!!!!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 08:27 AM) Kemp + Loney? We don't need Loney. PK will be back at first and I'd hope KW finds an even better 1B/DH. Loney isn't that good, is he?

Call me crazy, but I'm not that worried about PK not coming back. Where else is he going to go? And who else could the Sox sign to give you the production that PK gives? We are not ready for a full time Viciedo at 1b. I think they'll work it out and Paulie will be back.

I'll be pulling for the Reds, even though I think Votto is an a$$hole. I like Dusty and I'd be nice to see him finally get a ring. I wouldn't mind seeing Tampa Bay come out of the AL.

I'd like to think that we could get a lil more than Matt Kemp for Gavin Floyd.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Oct 3, 2010 -> 09:36 PM) I am going to guess 88 wins. I loled...

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 3, 2010 -> 03:40 PM) MLB Network better soften the blow of a long offseason. My ex girlfriend used to think I was crazy for watching MLB Network and the 2005 DVDs in the middle of winter. Notice I said ex girlfriend.

QUOTE (scenario @ Oct 3, 2010 -> 12:47 PM) People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring. ~Rogers Hornsby Man what a sad day. Hornsby was so right.

I'd be okay with a Morel offensive learning curve if the Sox got a raking DH and right fielder to fortify the line up.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 1, 2010 -> 07:48 PM) Depends on whether the South Korean military would take Morel. I've heard that the Korean military won't be a problem. I don't think it will be. Man he would be PERFECT in RF next year.

What would it take to make Shin Soo Choo our RF next year? Would Quentin and Viciedo get it done?

Wow... I think I just heard an echo...

MOREL!!!!

If Thome isn't playing for the White Sox, I don't give a rat's ass if he never gets a ring. Wait... let me rephrase that... I hope Thome never gets a ring as long as he is a minnesota twin. f*** the twins. I'll never ever root for those bastards.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Oct 1, 2010 -> 10:34 AM) But what is this "right way" that everybody keeps going on about? Because that implies we're not doing it the "right way"? I used to think that meant smallball/fundamentals but I really don't think we're lacking in that area anymore. By "right way" they mean do like the twins are doing - like everything they do is bleeping golden. Wait and see what happens to that starting pitching staff when they get to the post season. f*** the twins.

I don't know, but I'll sure be glad when somebody beats these f***ers so people will quit talking about them. Paulie and Ozzie seem to be hypnotized by the aura of the Twins and it seems like it permeates throughout the entire team and organization. They like the twins too much and, quite frankly it's a lil disturbing. You think the redsox talked about how the yanks did everything the "right way" before they finally manned up and beat them in 2004? NO! Varitek muffed A Rod in the face and told him and the yanks to go f*** themselves! You know... these are the times when it would be nice to have a raging a$$hole on your team. I mean an Albert Belle/Vincente Padilla/Carlos Zambrano/Gary Sheffield type a$$hole with some balls that won't sit back and admire the twins so much. f*** that...

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 29, 2010 -> 10:43 AM) I haven't even read the other responses in this thread yet, but I'll just get this out of the way right now. This is typical of the Sox. We're competitive until the last month and a half, we choke, and then we finish out the season strong when we're already out of contention. I think he meant to type that in green.

QUOTE (Real @ Sep 29, 2010 -> 09:53 AM) Danks or Floyd as part of a package would most likely land A-Gon, IMO. In that ballpark, Danks could put up some ridiculous numbers, and it's the NL on top of that Yeah maybe a package that includes Beckham, Sale, Thornton, Morel, and Kenny Williams' lower testicle. NO WAY the Padres trade that guy now that they are close to making the playoffs.

I think... I HOPE that Konerko comes back... unless Kenny can figure out how to get Adrian Gonzalez here (which is fantasy at this point). I'd be happy with AJ coming back for another year. I think the Sox should do whatever it takes to fill the holes in RF and the DH position. That is where money should be spent. Plus we need to get lucky and pick up a few relievers that are going to have good years next year.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 28, 2010 -> 09:38 AM) I don't see any point in returning this season. Ditto. For what?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 27, 2010 -> 10:02 AM) Garcia won't be back in 2011 unless something sets back Peavy pretty early on. The Sox don't need him. I'm almost positive that one of the starters (Floyd, Jackson, or Danks) is going to be dealt for a bat or some more talent to fill one of the many holes that the Sox have. So I wouldn't be so sure that Philo Beddo Freddo won't be back next season as insurance in case Peavy has fully recovered...

Where is everyone?

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I hate the Twins more than I hate the Yanks. I hope they get swept in the first round again. And I hate pompous ass Twins fans too. The ones that I've met think they're entitled to something. f*** them.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 24, 2010 -> 07:57 AM) LOL this is funny and sad at the same time. I wish Ozzie could get his s*** together and stay.
