No hits through 4

No hits for us through 3

Hawkins got his first hit today

Were really helping Greinke out.His control isnt very good right now.

Love it....Sale's off speed pitches missing and he goes to the heat.

That was a good swing...

My friend still thinks Josh Hamilton is going to get the triple crown.

Rios

Oh and Simon Castro was promoted to AAA. I think its only a matter of time before he is here.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 22, 2012 -> 03:17 PM) Promoted to AAA Charlotte. Wont be long before he is in a White Sox uniform.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 22, 2012 -> 03:30 PM) I don't know why they would have made it retroactive if they thought his stay would be prolonged... Thats what I heard. Take it for what its worth.Wouldnt surprise me if it was a longer stay.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 22, 2012 -> 03:11 PM) REBUILD I think sox sould look to the future a lil bit. It's gonna be tough to keep up with cle and det with this mess Yeah Cleveland and Detroit(team behind us) really are world beaters. Tough to keep up with them. Have you been watching this division?

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 22, 2012 -> 02:57 PM) Let the rebuild begin!!!! lol what?

Sounds like Humber is going to be on the DL for a while. So were 2 starters down. We need one ASAP.

All good moves. Humber has been really struggling.

Yep Im off...night

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:38 PM) Just because you said you do doesn't make it so. Your posts in this thread certainly would lead one to think otherwise. Actually, I take that back. Your posts in this thread actually haven't pointed out anything of substance. You've just been piggybacking DA. Its true because I actually did. I wasnt the one that started insulting people by saying they needed to be talked down to like children. I asked you a simple question when we started this debate. You have no proof to back up your point. All you've been trying to do is point out that there is a rare chance my poor is wrong( I actually have proof some which is nice). Thats where this has gone so far. As for what you've been saying to DA. It looks like you've been making up his point to try and make your argument. Im not a fan of that.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:34 PM) Well your nose isn't very good either then. But you still haven't addressed my point. I did consider all the information and read this entire thread since it was created. I always do. You just think I dont.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:30 PM) I'm sorry Baron, I didn't mean to not take you seriously. But I didn't actually mean you, as in yourself. I meant "you" as in a person in general. Sorry for not making that more clear. Yeah nice little swipe there. Reeks of desperation.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:25 PM) That's not what I am saying at all. But wouldn't you agree that if you are really going to voice your strong opinions on a topic you at least have an obligation to consider all available known information if you wish to be taken seriously? Im taken pretty seriously actually. More than you think.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:21 PM) Ahh, this is why I asked for you to make it more clear to me! He does claim that we actually bid $25 million. My bad. But you do understand that this does not make it a fact that we did so, right? Just because Peter Gammons said so doesn't make it fact? Still a rumor. ru·mor: a statement or report current without known authority for its truth So unless it comes out of Kenny's mouth we should just blow it off? Even then you may claim its still a rumor.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:15 PM) You seem to espouse the theory that one must spend every dollar one has access to, or saying they have no money to spend is an inaccurate statement. You seem to espouse the theory that JR should exhaust every financial resource he has or else he is not putting all the money back into the team. Such behavior would indeed be very reckless. He hasnt been saying that at all. Stop trying to put words in his mouth to make your argument.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:13 PM) But you did claim that, Baron. You posted that it was not a rumor because he said it was true. Even if I did trust Peter Gammons as much as you, I certainly didn't read his statement to say we bid $25-30 million. But perhaps you can make it more clear to me. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/jorge-soler/ Pretty easy find I know you may have trouble with this. But normally when people try to distinguish fact from a rumor they usually say so.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 11:03 PM) Baron, are you claiming that if someone says something, it cannot be a rumor, because that person said it was true? Secondly, the argument is not whether Peter Gammons has better sources or I do. The argument, if there actually is one, is which is a better source, actual publicly-released documents regarding player salaries, attendance, etc., or Peter Gammons hearing from his sources that we made a bid on Jorge Soler. Notwithstanding that even if it was established that we did bid on him, that doesn't establish the value of that bid. Oh, and I actually do know a guy that has pretty good sources within the White Sox...but no, I have no direct sources, nor did I claim I did. I am absolutely not claiming that. What I am claiming is that I trust his sources(This is coming from someone involved in the game of baseball almost his entire life) which said we bid on Soler and that bid was 25-30 million. Over your analyzation of documents and not having a full understanding of the details. Its pretty simple. I dont care if you have a friend connected with the White Sox. Give yourself a pat on the back.
