QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 30, 2013 -> 12:30 PM) Should be interesting to see who goes farther in the postseason: Peavy, Rios/AJP. It's going to be weird if AJ wins another WS title with a different team. Peavy is a great gamer; looks like we still have one in Sale. It happened to Jaun Uribe.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 30, 2013 -> 07:03 PM) A leadoff double and two singles and we get one run. Not efficient That has been going on for at least 5 years.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 30, 2013 -> 07:06 PM) I don't know what the personal attacks lately are about, but they are over. THANK YOU!

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Aug 29, 2013 -> 09:30 AM) http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-08...er-ken-williams Article at one point indicates he started (almost) missing KW ..when in Miami. I missed Kenny this past offseason. He always made them interesting.

Sucks to be an Angel fan. http://www.sportsonearth.com/article/58841256/

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 29, 2013 -> 08:04 PM) I apologize for posting on Ozzie. I will stop. I can go through and delete all my posts on Ozzie as well. Why? The world is full of sports forums were fans are not as rational as others. I hate off days. I could predict what would happen soon as I seen this thread title. People on both sides just can't seem to let go of Ozzie. The newbs need to cool it with the insults.

So does the organization pick the players for AFL?

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Aug 27, 2013 -> 09:34 AM) Even Buehrle--Buehrle!--did that once so I wouldn't worry too much if this is the only time it happens. They got on Buehrle for doing silly things like using the tarp as a slip and slide.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Aug 26, 2013 -> 08:59 PM) This post makes no sense. You would have to watch professional sports for more than 3 decades in order to understand.

QUOTE (mike89128 @ Aug 26, 2013 -> 06:29 PM) What's left to be said? He stinks as a baserunner. The first baseman was closer to home plate than De Aza. The MO of the Sox farm system. If Hahn is a serious GM, then he needs to fire some people,

He's a product of the pussified everyone gets a trophy generation. Athletes have to throw fits because it gives the fan an impression they care.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 26, 2013 -> 11:46 AM) http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,6293451.story If I was a Astros fan I would be pissed at management. Here's the other link, http://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2...ble-in-history/ Read the comments. How does it feel to be an Astros fan? You simply AREN’T an Astros fan. I don’t know a single Astros watcher and I’ve lived in Houston for 27 years. They’re that bad. I have no clue who goes to those games but it has to be lower than the Dynamo.

QUOTE (HeGone7 @ Aug 22, 2013 -> 08:51 AM) I know this topic has been brought up numerous times over the year, and several times over the last 60 days, but again how is this guy not a hot commodity right now? He hasn't really slowed down much since May 31st, and although his power numbers have dipped since the ASB he is still productive. Is this a case of just pure caution? Is it his contract? Is it just teams holding off until the very last minute to avoid giving their competition a chance to react? I guess I'm just surprised by the lack of activity. Maybe not surprised nothing has happened but to just hear crickets regarding any trades at all. The whole story at the deadline was the deadline is too early now because of the 2nd wild card and too many teams were in the race so the August deadline would have some excitement. Now I think it is more defined as to who is in it and it is too quiet. I don't think he fill the voids most teams need in the playoff hunt.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 20, 2013 -> 01:56 AM) Excellent post. To the Dunn lovers out there I'd ask this question to you: Looking back, do you think the White Sox made a wise decision in signing Adam Dunn? My answer is No, they made a very poor decision in signing Adam Dunn. Your answer please. I'm not a fan of aquiring NL talent to play in the AL nor a full time DH.

Someone musta been really, really, really bored to start a thread like this. He just had to learn about the American media the hard way.

How do you define a top pick and a worse pick. They are good at the latter no matter where they draft. I have no faith in the farm system.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 12, 2013 -> 08:22 AM) That's true. As defense has moved back into the forefront, I think other than Boston no team really has a set DH. Teams like to use that spot to give players rest and maximize their defensive skill each day. Dunn doesn't really help with that. I like that philosophy but when the Sox tried that it was the wrong people. After 2005 the DH has been a money pit.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 9, 2013 -> 06:16 PM) 90% boos for Arod at home. Nothing like hypocrisy.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Aug 10, 2013 -> 09:04 AM) I hope people realize that the Sox will not be buyers this winter. They will be in a situation where they will see who develops next year. They will be buyers once again in 2015. There is no way of knowing that.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 4, 2013 -> 07:26 AM) I'm with you. I like Jake, but not sure what we are thanking him for. He made bold competitive statements that appeased fans when he wasn't on the field. Anyone can talk. I really wanted to keep him.

QUOTE (Andy the Clown @ Aug 2, 2013 -> 10:25 PM) Again, who would want him? What would you expect him to bring in a trade? He's an average-at-best hitter with no defensive position... We're stuck with him for the foreseeable future, so let's hope he can show some improvement. Sounds like the perfect White Sox. I think he is a victim of being over hyped when he was in the minors. Another guy who can't catch a baseball. Should be be so eager to give up on him since this year's theme is underachievement?

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 2, 2013 -> 02:20 PM) Chances are Dunn is the DH with Tank at 1B. Dunn has been really good for 2 months now, when are you haters gonna cut him some slack. We want obp on this team right? his obp the last 2 months has been in the .390s. He's one of the last guys I could complain about in this team.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 03:25 PM) There is undeniably an attitude problem with this team. It isn't the whole problem, there have been injuries, bad luck, aging, young players not taking steps forward, but also attitude. It has not felt like many players on this team cared about the results of games for much of the season. Great case for a new manager.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 31, 2013 -> 06:23 PM) Shared salary and a marginal prospect? If the Sox were OK with that, if they were claimed, they would just let the claiming team take on the entire contracts. Why pay for marginal prospects? So the Sox could have the largest farm system of marginal prospects.
