DBAHO

No Nachreiner in the top 20, I'm devastated now. Liotta was above such names as B.J Syzmanski of the Yankees and another lefty Scott Elbert as well.

And his daughter was let into the country as well I heard.

Now the only free agent closers on the market this off-season will be Armando Benitez who will snapped up quickly, Bob Wickman, and possibly Ugueth Urbina if the Tiggies don't pick up his option. Shawn Chacon could make $3 mill in arbitration next season. But he has a 1-9 record with a 6.68 ERA. He made the NL All Star team last season as a starter, and he has 34 saves this year. With the payroll limitations the Rockies have, Chacon could easily be had for the right price, a young pitcher or prospect most likely. Would you trade for him and pay him $3 mill though? Now there's this on Julio, KW has said improving the bullpen will be a big priority this off-season. Cotts and Adkins will have increased roles with Shingo surely coming back for $2.5 million. How would having a power closer with Shingo in the 8th look though?

YASNY, looks like you might not be the only one interested in Raines as a coach;

Now I know a lot of people want us to sign a big name like Beltran or Pedro, but I doubt that's going to happen. Mike Lowell can opt out of his 4 year $32 million contract that would pay $7.5 million next season, if the Marlins don't have stadium plans in by November 1. Here's some news on him,

If Baines does leave, I think Ozzie may look to hire a coach he's familar with from the Marlins perhaps, especially if Jack McKeon does leave after the season, and they shake things up.

There's nothing to gain if we keep winning and we're out of it, sure guys on the team are auditioning for places on the team for next season, but as a fan, I think you're definitely more willing to accept a loss now.

What bout all the old folks?

He doesn't like having his photo taken.

How ironic for you to say that.

So do I end up like Biff?

After today's win, we're 2 games behind the Phillies at the moment. The Tribe are 2 games behind us, with the Orioles 5 games behind.

Like Kyle Lohse? Those two are so similar I tell ya.

Who would have thought we'd even hav 2 chances tonight with the bases loaded. Konerko swung on the 1st pitch, Uribe on the 5th and homered. Patience peeps.

GOD = Gave Ozzie Dyslexia.

Happy B-Day Reddy!!!

Yeah like Mike Nakamura who's now with the Blue Jays and Grant Balfour.

Game.Over

Wilson Valdez had 2 walks today. He only had 1 BB in 9 games previously for the White Sox, and only 11 BB's in 62 games for Charlotte. Neal Cotts in his last 3 appearances of 4.1 innings of work has had 5 ER's but 10 K's as well. He has 57 all season.

I did a paper on SARS last year in High School. Good to see they might be able to find a cure, because all they do previously is just quarantine people to make sure the virus doesn't spread.

Uribe tailed off mid - season, but it's been good to see a resurgence from him lately. We could do a lot worse than having him as one of our starting infielders next season.

I didn't know that he was signed when he was only 16 out of the Dominican Republic either. Perfect example of why the White Sox need to take more chances on these type of guys from that region or even from places like Australia, after the Olympics teams have been snapping up young pitchers from down here, especially the Red Sox and Padres who seem to be extremely active.

Wow, that was unexpected.

Is that his second for tonight?
