Can't see the Twins resigning Koskie even after the Twinkies offered arbitration, there's a reason they went out and signed Juan Castro even though he's mainly a SS. Maybe the Sox could "gulp" "fly under the radar" for Koskie.

that'll put some butts in the seats

Damn, I was really hoping he would leave the Twins.

They already resigned Nomar and Walker and signed Blanco, who was probably our main catching target. Not a bad day's work.

I was the one who predicted the White Sox would sign Blanco, and obviously I was very wrong.

 

And I'm angry and frustrated about it too.

 

The White Sox need a veteran catcher who's a defensive specialist and can call a good game, Blanco was the guy. What the Cubs paid wasn't outrageous and the White Sox fell asleep at the switch here. Blanco is, unfortunately, a nice addition for the Cubs. He can't hit but his defensive skills and intangibles make him well worth it.

 

Bad move by the White Sox in not getting this done.

I was the one who predicted the White Sox would sign Blanco, and obviously I was very wrong.

You don't listen..

 

 

 

I think the Twins sole purpose in life is to torment the Sox and it pisses me off.

You don't listen..

 

 

 

 

Probably right.

 

I just watch, and from where I sat, wow, do they need a veteran catcher who knows how to call a game and throw out baserunners.

 

Worse, I don't see anything on the market, barring a trade.

 

I like Burke a lot Steff, but see him as a very valuable 25th man ... on a team going for a championship, that is.

Don't worry Jim.. Ben will lead us to the promise land..
