son of a rude

I really want randy winn for RF next year. A 2 year contract should suffice. He is excellent in RF. His offensive numbers are pretty low this year. It may be due to him aging or an off year. Either way, he will come cheap and it will add a lefty who is great in RF.

rush starts. hope to hit up a bunch of parties.

Next years rotation looks like it will be even better than in 2005 =x I honestly just want us to focus on defense an some bullpen arms during the offseason. If we do that, we have a great chance at going all the way. Randy winn in RF would be great on defense. Our infield is a huge question mark defensively. I think all we can do is hope that they get better next year. Signing Jack Wilson at SS and moving Alexei to 2nd would make it a lot more solid, but i want to see if Getz can become our future leadoff hitter.

id hate to see what you thought of beckham after his first 17 games. he wasnt even a proven player like rios is either.

40/40? iv heard 30/30, but not 40/40.

Thanks. I wonder if he will be a candidate for an outfield spot next year.

JPN, how good was Gartrell in the field?

His average is fine imo. He needs to start slugging and getting on base more. His slugging percentage and OBP are pathetic. Manufacturing runs is what his game is going to be. I think he will make a big splash next year and possibly be a late year call up. Going straight to AA when you are 19 and from a different country and hitting .280 is pretty impressive. Still, slugging percentage is more important for a guy like him. I hope that he raises it next year.

if he can start putting up an OBP of .360, id say keep him for sure. if we could get a productive 3b and move gordon to 2b or a productive/ great with the glove SS and move alexei to 2nd, i would do that.

not trying to be an asshole or anything, but were you serious with that or was it just a mistake? nobody in their right mind would have pods in CF and rios in LF.

I wonder if we will trade Torres in the offseason. His value went up from that start, and I don't think he has a future here with Hudson and Hynick here.

simply having Wise in RF shows how much having a good defense helps. i really hope we stack our defense during the offseason.

Yeah. I saw the first inning and it seemed like the zone was huge.

Had class during the first part of the game. Is this start a product of a bad cubs offense or is torres pitching really well today? I see he has no walks. That makes me think its the latter.

ick, that workout is garbage. You need to lower the reps a lot. 50 reps on deadlift? You would get tired as hell and your form would start becoming bad. That is just asking for a back injury. If you want to look like the guys in 300, do 5-10 reps on everything. When doing abs, using weight so you can only do around 10 reps of each exercise. Plus you will have to have an extremely good diet if you want the abs like that.

kurt cobain killing 80's hair bands was the greatest thing to happen to music.

a few walks?

it was between the 60's-70's and this for me. i love me some grunge, sublime, and old weezer.

were any of the old folks here by chance at a game where somebody got in a fight with ribbie or rubarb (cant remember which) and it was put on the big screen?

the beatles are more pop than rock, but since they are so f***ing good the 1960's take the cake.

i would have to slay kenny with my bare hands if he traded hudson. i hope hudson gets some starts soon.

i dont think anybody would want linebrink. plus i dont think bradley would last in the white sox clubhouse. he would take something the wrong way and go on a hissy fit.

the white sox are a disappointing team this year son of rude is sad
