May 22, 200520 yr Doug Davis with a complete game shutout against the Twinkies. Sox lead is now 6 games!
May 22, 200520 yr Author The Cardinals also came back to beat the Royals, 6-5. The Flubs are now 8 games back. LOL.
May 22, 200520 yr Awesome CLee had 4 rbi with a homer.. I miss Carlos But heres to having Pods/Vizcaino/El Duque/Extra Cash

May 22, 200520 yr Yea Carlos pissed me off bigtime tonight - I've got Radke on my fantasy team. But at least something good came of it - the Twinkies fell further behind in the standings! I've also got Matt Morris and HE was pissing me off too, but Larry Walker bailed him out. So overall it was a beautiful day (except for El Duque going on the DL)!
May 22, 200520 yr Ahem, AJ Pierzynski. How could I forget. As much as I love CLee. Pierzynski/Pods/Duque/Vizcaino/Cash >>>>>>>>> Carlos
May 22, 200520 yr Carlos also made a web gem.... his fielding keeps getting better year by year... I still wish we traded Konerko instead... but than im also really happy with what Pods has done for us.

I think Carlos has one year left after this one to go. No matter what, I love Pods.
May 22, 200520 yr If I'm not mistaken, we have reached a season high by being 19 GAMES OVER .500 for the first time this year. And it's still May!

Not even close. Carlos is hitting .259 this year. Even if he hits like he did last year I'd still take Podsednik over him, no contest.

Even if he hits like he did last year I'd still take Podsednik over him, no contest. Right now I'd venture to say Scott>>>>Carlos, if Carlos hits 30 plus bombs and drives in over 100, scott is still much more valuable then Carlos. Players like Scott just aren't around anymore, he's very special.

Players like Scott just aren't around anymore, he's very special. yes but also Carlos >> Konerko... still we made out like theives on the deal, Pods has been amazing and we got other key players because of it.. but even though Carlos avg. been down he has made the brewers a bigger threat offensively... its nice to see a trade where both sides win.

Like's already been said there is no way that Milwaukee would have taken pauly so it's a moot point.

Carlos has done better than Konerko.... also we might of been able to traded Konerko for maybe Juan Pierre before Marlins signed Delgado... but in the end we are all 31-12 so good luck Carlos but i guess we dont need you..
May 22, 200520 yr This thread os basically worthless. Why do we thgink that we had a choice between trading PK or CL? The Brewers wanted Lee. They had no use for a firstbaseman. The trade happened, and so far it's worked out well for us. Regardless of what type of year Carlos has, this trade has made the Sox a better team. What else can you ask from a trade?

It was more likely they were going to deal Castillo before Pierre anyways, and if we did that, we wouldn't have Iguchi. Things couldn't have worked out better quite frankly.
May 22, 200520 yr I have one thing to say about all this.... Pods OBP = .394 26 SBs, .294 BA, .394 OBP....thank you Kenny, for getting us something we sorely needed.
May 22, 200520 yr What a day! Sox win Twins lose Cards win Scrubs lose ........and Dye rocked LaToya, LMAO! No matter what happens today, I'm very happy with the way this series turned out.
May 22, 200520 yr As someone who was initially skeptical of this trade, I've become satisfied with the results for both teams as it relates to SPods and CLee. I don't see why a winner has to be declared between the two. As to Viz(and the reason I wasn't too happy about the trade), he has so far been exactly what I feared. Mediocre at best. I would've been much happier with Turnbow or Wise.
