October 12, 200322 yr Isn't Kerry Wood a FA or something like that. Wouldn't that kick the Cubs in the balls? No, he is a year away. The dreaded lame duck/sign me now or I'll become a free agent year.
October 12, 200322 yr Author Way too early to even speculate, really. I know, but with me meeting Phil Rodgers in the offseason, I need some SERIOUS White Sox questions that will guide our offseason posts. So i was wondering if some of you would give me some questions for him.
October 12, 200322 yr I know, but with me meeting Phil Rodgers in the offseason, I need some SERIOUS White Sox questions that will guide our offseason posts. So i was wondering if some of you would give me some questions for him. Here's one I have always wondered. Why the hell don't we have a mascot?
October 12, 200322 yr Author Here's one I have always wondered. Why the hell don't we have a mascot? Then it would be a dancing Sock on the dugout, you don't want that to happen do you?
October 12, 200322 yr Then it would be a dancing Sock on the dugout, you don't want that to happen do you? Better than nothing. We wouldn't have to have a sock. Ya ever wonder why the Rockies have a dinosaur? How about some of the other mascots that make no sense.
October 12, 200322 yr Better than nothing. We wouldn't have to have a sock. Ya ever wonder why the Rockies have a dinosaur? How about some of the other mascots that make no sense. Mariner Moose ?? All this Sock talk reminds me of a Moron named Chimp Carey that always referes to the Sox in singular as WhiteSock. LOL!
October 12, 200322 yr Are we going to get another pitcher instead of Colon??? If so, whom. Close your eyes and who do you see?
October 12, 200322 yr If bartolo doesn't sign with us, which at this moment in my opinion is a 50/50 shot of getting him back. KW has balls and he could just go and up his side of the deal as far as money wise. I think he will be back, but if he goes else where. KW will come up with somthing to get another starter, He will trade if he has to or sign maybe someone else. I like sydny ponson, he isn't a bartolo but he can be. The giants are not going to sign him, and the sox might be able to snag him, because the yanks and bosox are going to be fighting for bartolo. another name that wouldn't be bad to get would be suppan. Heck lets try to get both, Loaiza, Buerhle, Ponson, Suppan, Garland or Schoenwiess. that would be a great starting 5.
October 12, 200322 yr I am fairlly confident that the White Sox will have either Bartolo Colon, Javier Vazquez or Sidney Ponson next season.

Jas, while I agree with most of your opinions...gotta disagree on this one. What are you basing this on, just speculation or have you heard anything on the other two besides Colon. Vazquez to me would be a huge surprise and I think Ponson is going to ask for more than he's worth.

Vazquez to me would be a huge surprise and I think Ponson is going to ask for more than he's worth. Soley base this on the fact that KW has always tried to add pitching and I don't see how this year will be any different. He's been interested in Vazquez and Ponson in the past. Doesn't mean it will happen, but I don't see the Sox not adding another pitcher if they lose Bart.

Otherwise, you're counting on Wright/Cotts/Rauch/Schoenweis, etc. to fill two rotation spots. The problem is, it could be another Todd Ritchie who is added rather than a Ponson or Vazquez.

Its a definate possibility. Boomer, Ritchie, Colon its no secret that KW will make a move if Colon isn't back.
October 12, 200322 yr Author Isn't Kerry Wood a FA or something like that. Wouldn't that kick the Cubs in the balls? Yeah, but Its not happening. I think he has arbitration
October 12, 200322 yr I know, but with me meeting Phil Rodgers in the offseason, I need some SERIOUS White Sox questions that will guide our offseason posts. So i was wondering if some of you would give me some questions for him. Yeah, I want to know the game plan (if any) to match the Cubs success. Or else save time and just move the team.
October 13, 200322 yr Author Yeah, I want to know the game plan (if any) to match the Cubs success. Or else save time and just move the team. The White Sox aren't moving this team. Case closed as neither the City nor the Mayor nor legistlatures would allow it. Florida White Sox Ewww...
October 13, 200322 yr The White Sox aren't moving this team. Case closed as neither the City nor the Mayor nor legistlatures would allow it. Florida White Sox Ewww... The "Florida White Sox" almost became a reality once.
October 13, 200322 yr And the Milwaukee White Sox, the Seattle White Sox, the Denver White Sox. This franchise always seems to have one foot on a banana peel and one foot you know where.
October 13, 200322 yr Author And the Milwaukee White Sox, the Seattle White Sox, the Denver White Sox. This franchise always seems to have one foot on a banana peel and one foot you know where. If they did move, what would become of US Cellular Field?
October 13, 200322 yr If they did move, what would become of US Cellular Field? Good question. I just don't think it's impossible that the team would ever move since they came very close in 75 and 88. Been a White Sox fan too long I guess.
