QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 08:34 PM) Problems with this post. 1. The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Manny Ramirez to that contract. Kenny Williams claimed the last shards of him last year. 2. Adam Dunn still put up an .800+ OPS last year in the 2nd half. Kenny Williams might well have resigned him. 3. Acquiring Adam Dunn would have cost the White Sox Dayan Viciedo in 2010. In that case, the White Sox would have almost been forced to keep Dunn around...just to cover for the fact that they had lost their only remaining hitting prospect. 4. The Edwin Jackson trade-away was actually a solid deal and I'm still content with it. That might well prove to be Kenny Williams's best deal since 2008. All outstanding points.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 11:53 AM) I can put up with that for a guy who plays all out to win. 30 plus doubles, 20 plus homers and about 80 RBI's at this stage of the season shows me something. But, no let's tade our #2 hitter for some mid level prospect because the guy gets hurt at least trying to win. We need 24 more like CQ IMO. We need 24 inuried right fielders who are extremely streaky?

Peavy! Sale! Lilli! Viciedo in spirit!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 10:48 PM) They need to develop a WAR metric for managers. Ozzie's would be -14.5. Brent should have way more than 160 ABs. Would an OF of Lilli-De Aza-Viciedo with Milledge as the 4th OF be the worst thing in the world for next year?

FRRRRROOOOOODOOOOOOOO

Hawk loves Dayan.

QUOTE (mcgrad70 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 09:44 PM) The Sox owners have money, they just don't spend much of it and when they do it's put into hands of incompetent management. You can't be all-in and have as many glaring weaknesses the Sox did going into the season. If you're all in you're trying to get Granderson (which was doable during the off-season if the Sox had offered Danks), Beltre and Gonzalez. All they got for they're all-in trouble was a 48 million dollar stiff. And now the Sox are Dunn. Maybe someday the Sox will have ownership committed to producing an elite organization. Jordan or John? Cause neither of those was happening.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 09:22 PM) I see that Ozzie obviously has no intention of benching Rios. f***ing kidding me. We have a chance to remove Rios and Dunn from the lineup, but don't. And Rios makes me look dumb.

QUOTE (OilCan @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 09:20 PM) MDGonzales Mark Gonzales Guillen will talk to Viciedo about how comfortable he feels playing 1st. He has played 95 games in RF, 10 at 1st and 14 as the DH in 2011. 1 minute ago Favorite Undo Retweet Reply I see that Ozzie obviously has no intention of benching Rios. f***ing kidding me.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 09:02 PM) Then he needs to give up that magic ring he found in Gollums cave. He hasn't aged a day since picking it up.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 08:45 PM) What, shaving cream? I guess a lot of them have grown out beards Lillibridge needs to look older than 10.

Seriously, I hope Viciedo rakes like the second coming of Miguel Cabrera just as a big f*** you to Ozzie.

QUOTE (OilCan @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 08:50 PM) JimMargalus Jim Margalus That's just insulting. MT @ChuckGarfien: Ozzie's sarcastic reaction to Viciedo? "Yay, we're in the pennant race!" twitpic.com/6bqa4u I'M DA FOCKING MANAYER I CAN BE INSULTING ALL I WANT. I MAKE DA LINEOP.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 07:51 PM) What, no shaving cream pie??? Team doesn't have it any more. Saw no use for it.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 07:02 PM) Better late than never, I guess. Wouldn't it be awesome if Viciedo somehow carried this team to the playoffs? Just dreaming..... He'll finish with .500 avg, 30 HR, 100 RBI, MVP, RoY, and be awarded a funny hat.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 06:45 PM) *makes jerking off motion* How about making moves when it still mattered. Yeah, but at least this lets us look to the future. I want ScottyDo in here with his Dayman Viciedo brings joy to all sig.

From the Catch-All QUOTE (DirtySox @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 06:33 PM) Dayan was removed from the Knights game as well. It is time. First thought: Should have traded Quentin at the deadline. Second thought: BUSTING OUT MY MOTHERf***ING DAYAN SHIRT.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 05:55 PM) I'm mocking the chess game both have played in the media this year, mostly regarding Viciedo. One blames the other, who blames the other, and so on. I'm on Kenny's side 100% about Viciedo. The kid raked last year and Ozzie barely played him. He needs to play everyday.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) Of course. KW won't call him up cause he won't get enough playing time from Ozzie, and Ozzie can only play the guys that KW puts on his 25-man roster. I can't tell who this is mocking, but after Dayan last year, I don't blame Kenny. Reed is better off honing his pitches/building arm strength every day then wasting away in the back of Ozzie's bullpen.

Verlander and Gonzalez should be the MVP front runners.

f*** the 455.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Aug 26, 2011 -> 04:12 PM) I think it's interesting, you have these three underperforming guys: Dunn, Rios and Beckham. In each case, something suggests they will turn it around, so, which is most likely? Least likely? --Dunn has a long major league history of getting it done at the plate, regardless of poor technique or athleticism. --Rios has long been lauded for having high end tools and talent, but not necessarily results. --Beckham rocketed all the way to the majors in a year and succeeded briefly at each level, but has since failed to adjust consistently. Which of the three is most and least likely to pull it out in 2012? No poll, just looking for what people think on this. Gordon, if we get a new hitting coach.
