During the draft, was position where you expected to be taken? Who is another outfielder currently in the system that you think you'll be playing alongside in the 5 to 10 years? Are you more of a contact hitter or a power hitter? How important is the OBP stat to you? Where in the order do you prefer to hit the most? What is the difference in hitting in Charlotte compared to Birmingham? Who's the toughest pitcher you've faced in your minor league career so far? Who was your baseball idol growing up?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 12:25 PM) FWIW, there's a big difference between throwing over 100 pitches and throwing 120. After 100 pitches, Garcia had only given up what 2 ER, and that was AFTER a wild 1st inning. He had retired something like the past 12 or 13 in a row. Ozzie brings a guy in to relieve him, say that guy gives up a run, he'll get crucified. He can't win. Plain and simple.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 02:28 PM) Some people apparently have different opinions of good. Like are we talking Neal Cotts good, Kevin Walker potential to be better than Neal Cotts good, or Orlando Cabrera good?

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 02:24 PM) :fyou Hey it's not my fault your boy isn't good at catching JC.

And Widger better not be catching tomorrow is all I'm gonna say (sorry qwerty).

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) No picture of Garcia in the 8th? What gives?

Shoot anyone who says anything negative.

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 01:15 PM) good call kap. do what i've learned to do. stay out of gamethreads, save your aggravation with all the negative posters. But, but, but, but, but Garcia was left in for an extra inning. NOT GOOD ENOUGH OZZIE!!!!

My guess is Cameron will be traded for a first baseman or some good relievers. Personally if I was Omar Minaya, I'd be going after Chad Tracy from Arizona while Tony Clark is just lighting it up.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 12:13 PM) IMagine that! :rolly They had the fingers ready at the keyboard, until that rally came up. Annoyed poster - "AWW NUTS"

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) Ya, they lost Thank you Captain Obvious.

Malone continues to shine, Liotta could be up with the Hogs soon, if there's room in the rotation for him.

FWIW, Garcia has thrown over 100 pitches in 12 out of his 14 starts now.

Still would you take 3 ER from 8IP from Garcia though every time?

Minny down 7-2 in the 9th!!!!!

Alex you should know the drill by now.

We out Twinkied the Twinkies at what they do best. That was a thing of beauty!!!!

Willie stole a base, LMAO.

Today's writeup on Tyler and Gio;

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 05:34 AM) Broadway isn't a McCarthy clone, as his change really isn't as plus as his curve. Brooks was not projected to be a 2nd rounder, probably more along the lines of a 5th round pick. With Getz I keep reading Craig Counsell esque. Rote is a power reliever who hasn't harnessed his mid 90s fastball and his power slider. A project pick. On Brooks I thought that was generally the case too, but John Sickels wrote up this of him, and there was an article stating the Sox brass had him rated as a 2nd rounder;

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 01:48 AM) Let's be careful and not violate any Soxtalk rules by promoting any piracy methods. Ahh yes well, my sister buys em for me.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 01:43 AM) Lets just say Rangers 14 year old sister had a better arm I bet she made the distance too.

And Jabroni, to clear up the Shea Hillenbrand thing, when you said he was a free agent after this season;

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 18, 2005 -> 07:53 PM) I agree that they have solid arms in the pen but it obviously hasn't worked out very well. Do they have the worst bullpen era in baseball or am I going crazy? Losing Brandon Lyon until after the All - Star Break really killed them. Of course, Brenly overworking the likes of Oscar Villareal and Mike Koplove the seasons before that, didn't help much at all either.
