Hit his 1st homer yesterday too. Nothing would please Billy Beane more than for Swisher to be their opening day starter next season in one of the outfield spots.

Ok I'll talk to you later bout it, gotta go to uni 1st unfortunately.

The Twinkies hav lost the last 2 days with their worst 2 starters on the mound in Lohse and Mulholland. With Santana and Radke on the hill 10 more times this month, it's all over.

Stay safe down there Jim and I hope none of your work stuff is majorly damaged.

Usually download speeds for me on BitTorrent are pretty slow even though I hav cable. I'm using Shareaza at the moment, it's like Kazaa but there's no pop up ads and the interface is really easy to use.

Don't worry it's being taken care of.

Where would Soriano hit though. Would we put him back as a leadoff hitter, or keep him in the #3 spot?

Looks like another Federer vs Roddick final.

I don't even see Southpaw's nose in the second one.

Some team will take a chance on him in a platoon situation, based on his early season play with the D-Backs, probably an NL team like the Reds I'd say.

Diaz has more potential than Shoe, and Shoe has worn out his welcome here in Chicago. I'm all for giving Diaz more starts to prove himself and shutting down Freddy for the season.

I wasn't saying we would get J.D Drew, no way we will. When he was traded from the Cardinals to the Braves however, they got Jason Marquis, Ray King and Adam Waniwright for him, we should try and get that type of a deal for Carlos Lee. Jackass Jones would be a pretty nice, you would get 20 homers and 80 RBI's consistently from him, and I'd love Koskie or Vizquel here as well.

If this club wants to make the playoffs, then it should be Jon Garland who's the 5th starter next season.

89 Honda Prelude, still got it.

With Maggs, Jose and Koch's contracts all coming off the books that's about $20 million. Loaiza and Contreras swapping places it almost a wash financially, with Contreras earning bout an extra million or 2 over the next 2 to 3 years. We sign a SS who can get on base conisistently like Omar Vizquel to replace Jose, while we use the rest of the money to sign a front - line starter and closer. If we had to trade one of Lee or Konerko, I'd trade Carlos. Try and get a J.D Drew type of deal for him, and fill multiple holes in this lineup. And then we can sign a Frank Catalanotto to replace Lee in LF.

Welcome aboard to SoxTalk too.

Jon Garland. If we were a team stocked with good pitching, who needed an offensive boost, then maybe Soriano. But I don't want a second baseman who will strike out over 100 times a year and hardly take a walk. We sign another good starter in the offseason, push Garland down to the #5 spot, and allow him to develop, without big expectations of him needing to win 15 to 18 games for us to make the playoffs.

Gio was good early with his control, his walks have increased significantly over his past few outings though, I'd say he's gettin pretty tired, he's only 18 still I believe.

That's what you get when you go to a private school.

No, his only value is a pass rusher in a 3/4 defence.

I wonder if Philly fans would still boo the McNabb choice over Ricky Williams now. :rolly

I'd prob do that with Elisha, but then again my parents hav to use the computer from time to time and they'd prob get a bit freaked out seeing a beautiful woman on the desktop.
