December 8, 200421 yr It seems like Levine is getting better and better at avoiding questions. Wills had to press him on whether the Sox are going to get a starter via trade or FA. Bruce keeps coming back to White Sox interest in Javier Vazquez, via the 3 way trade. Wills brought up both Jaret Wright and Wilson Alvarez ... Alvarez being a swing guy, a Sean Lowe type who can relieve and spot start. He commented on Alvarez knowing a lot of the Sox players, and Guillen. I heard the same thing as WHarris, Levine thinks there's a good chance something happens with Vazquez, RJ, etc. over the next 5-6 days.
December 8, 200421 yr Levine reiterated the potential Vazquez 3 way, said his sources told him Boras gave the White Sox MRIs on Magg's knee. Wills mentioned the Sox may be interested in Willie Alvarez as a long reliever spot starter swing man.
December 8, 200421 yr Lots of people like the fact that they don't have to search a million threads to find the information that they are looking for. That's why the bigger subject threads are so popular here. A million? Try 5 new threads a day, at the most. I like being able to see my information, right in front me me, in the form of thread titles, instead of going through 16 (which is how many it tells me) pages of information for something.
December 8, 200421 yr That was not Keith (cwsguy) from here. I didn't here the questoin -- Just Willsy saying thanks keith

Not everyone reads everyday either... Its all a preference thing. I live on here, so it doesn't affect me either way
December 8, 200421 yr I was thinking about calling in, but I didn't want to just yell and not get a point across. God dammit, we can't even afford a foulking infielder at 2,000,000+
December 8, 200421 yr Not everyone reads everyday either... Its all a preference thing. I live on here, so it doesn't affect me either way If anything we should have it both ways.
December 8, 200421 yr I was thinking about calling in, but I didn't want to just yell and not get a point across. God dammit, we can't even afford a foulking infielder at 2,000,000+ Why would you need to yell in the first place? Even if you are pissed off, yelling at a couple of radio hosts won't get you anywhere anyway. Besides you will get a lot further if you come up with a calm rational thought, versus coming off as a raving lunatic.

I like being able to see my information, right in front me me, in the form of thread titles, instead of going through 16 (which is how many it tells me) pages of information for something. Do we really need a seperate thread about Al Levine and Esteban Yan becoming free agents?
December 8, 200421 yr If anything we should have it both ways. Personally I have never minded the duplicate threads within reason. Some people it bothers... meh, whatever. The whole point of the site it to diseminate information. >Whatever it takes to do that is cool with me.
December 8, 200421 yr Do we really need a seperate thread about Al Levine and Esteban Yan becoming free agents? Esteban Yan would have made a good "what if we picked up this guy..." kind of thread. Levine, I wouldn't understand if anyone did post something on him. Why would anyone want him?
December 8, 200421 yr I was thinking about calling in, but I didn't want to just yell and not get a point across. God dammit, we can't even afford a foulking infielder at 2,000,000+ Ross ... lots of things will happen over the next 6 weeks.
December 8, 200421 yr Clement, likely to get arbitration from Cubs, may sign with Cleveland or Philly... White Sox too, but you know how that goes. Staying on the subject of cubs, go get your coffee and come back in 5 minutes.
December 8, 200421 yr Ross ... lots of things will happen over the next 6 weeks. And predicition #2, plenty of people will crucify KW for them
December 8, 200421 yr Ross ... lots of things will happen over the next 6 weeks. Restless fans who are too excited and disappointed at the same time, Jim, like me. Ordonez being gone is going to be hard on me. And if we don't get someone better than Harris, I'm going to be extremely angry if they don't. But your right. 6 weeks.
December 8, 200421 yr I saw the fabled triumvirate of Fassero/Yan/Borbon work out really nicely for the Cardinals in 03. I wouldn't touch Yan with someone else's ten foot pole.
December 8, 200421 yr And predicition #2, plenty of people will crucify KW for them If he ignores problems with patch-work, bargain bin free agents I'll lead the crucifiction of Williams.
December 8, 200421 yr Patience is required here. It's only December 7. I don't always agree with KW's moves but I do believe he's working his ass off to better the team. If KW has any weakness its that he gives too much and is too eager to make a deal (a trait that continues to concern me.) KW does not sit pat because he wants to.
December 8, 200421 yr Lots of Cub turds calling in. :rolly Pisses me off because just a few years ago, it was a majority White Sox station, where you rarely heard from Chicago Cub fans. Blah, this makes me sick.
December 8, 200421 yr Lots of Cub turds calling in. :rolly Four straight.... How does Willsy endure this Cub-lovin'? Must be gritting through his teeth.
December 8, 200421 yr I am not all over KW yet. He's got to do something by the Thursday before Soxfest or things are going to get VERY interesting. Either way I'll have plenty of fun. We eitehr walk around optimistic for three days or we get stuff off our collective chests at the Q and A. I think they try to bring in Hawk as a way to keep the fans in a good mood but that didn't work out so well last year. I wonder if KW would come down with a "throat ailment".
December 8, 200421 yr Next week something big is going to go down. You mean besides my grades after finals? Seriously, I hope you are right. I want Vasquez.
