Does anyone think Escobar makes it to Birmingham this year?

QUOTE (GREEDY @ Jul 6, 2010 -> 09:32 PM) I couldn't tell you what happened, the game is on WCIU. I HATE THE U

Still worried about Weaver's lifetime 4-0 record with an 0.52 career ERA against the Sox.

Been pretty quiet on the draft singing front, anyone heard anything?

Would love to see Vizquel on this coaching staff, that would be a great move, but isn't Cora's role to help the infield defense?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 1, 2010 -> 07:26 PM) I tell you, each and every day he reminds me of one guy, with the way he plays and the way he is in the clubhouse, and that's Catfish... His love of Catfish is my favorite, you could play drinking games and get bombed every game for the number of times he talks about Catfish.

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen................He was pathetic!!!

Maybe my day is starting right, Cowley is saying that Williams is on his way to AAA!!!

I woke up this morning hoping to see the White Sox in the transactions and that Williams was gone, but not yet........alas, I can continue to hope.

Williams' Sox career better be over tonight.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 08:56 PM) I love that duck. Not one exact quote, but his absolute love for Catfish Hunter is always entertaining.

QUOTE (hawksox13 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 08:07 AM) I'd be willing to part with Hudson for Dunn. Adding Sale in this years draft lessens the need for Hudson. Sale seems to have a higher ceiling than Hudson. The best Hudson will ever be is a #3 ML pitcher. Not that that's a bad thing as those type of guys are going to give you 200 innings and 12-15 wins a year. Just saying they have someone else in the minor league system now that if needed could step up next season in Freddy Garcia's spot. If you told me it was Hudson and one lower level prospect to get Dunn today I'd ask where do I sign. At this point Washington is going to ask for everything to test out the desperation.

Again, after today, I do not ever want to see him pitch against KC, cut him now!!

Without a move, Teahan will be our DH when he gets back. Kotsay should be coming off the bench.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 27, 2010 -> 11:43 AM) Hooray. If he pitches well with Jenks on the bereavement list, I think Williams is DFA. I never thought about it that way, let's hope Threets does pitch well so Williams is DFA when Jenks comes back. Go Threets!!!

If we are in it to stay, I want Kotsay coming off the bench and not to be our full time DH.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 23, 2010 -> 07:16 PM) Threets has the arm and the pedigree, the only questions (and they're big ones) are his health and command/control. Threets or Pinto are hands down better than Williams, make the move KW.

Marlins cut Pinto, I would take him over Williams right now.

Is Vizquel our starting third baseman the rest of year?

I have been on the cut Randy Williams club since spring training, he always walks people and gives up hits. Terrible, just terrible, cut him now.

I'm in but still listen to offers for Putz and Jenks, we can make the Phillies beg and get something good in return.

Sale is better than Randy Williams right now, get him off the club and get someone up.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 04:47 PM) Although I don't think his chances are as good as Rios, Paulie, or Jenks.....if Freddy can get 2 more wins before the All Star game, he's a maybe as well. Tough not to take a pitcher with double digits wins at the break. Rios is our only lock for the roster right now.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 05:03 PM) I'd like to take on short-term salary, instead of giving up prospects. That likely means Berkman and not A-Gone or Dunn. I agree totally on Berkman. KW will target him if we are in contention.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 20, 2010 -> 02:51 PM) Threets with a scoreless 9th. Hudson gets his 9th win. I would still rather give Threets a shot at the major league roster rather than Williams.
