Iguchi's batting average against LHP is now around .160. There's not a chance in hell he should be brought back next year.

Contreras for some used batting practice balls and a warm bucket of spit.

 

 

DO IT KW!

Yep, just please get rid of that 20 million.

Does anyone thinkthat JC would at least have a little more success in the NL. I am praying some team takes a chance on him and trades for him. I want to get rid of this contract!!

There's no way you get another team to take on his whole contract right now, and there's no way you'll get anything useful in return. We might have to take on a bad contract if we really feel like he's never going to help us again.

Wow did we let this guy off the hook. Any other lineup and this guy would have never gotten out of the 1st inning. Our offense is pathetic

Well lets see, now the Mets will give us a big bowl of dog snot for Contrares. Great. That's down only from a game expired New York subway tokens.

I wouldn't expect anything back for him at all. I'm just thinking the Mets might take a chance on him. Well let's say I guess I am hoping the Mets take a chance on him and reuniting him with El Duque

 

This is where the offense won't get another hit the rest of the game. We suck against opposing teams bullpens. I wish we could face our own, I am curious to see how they would fare against our hitters. Probably shut them down!!!

Amazing. Javier Vazquez >>> Jose Contreras this year.

WTF?

Atleast we'll have Crede and Dye to trade.

 

Oh....

ASS-MA sucks so bad!

Bye AAAArdsma. Have fun in Charlotte.

I am so anxious to see how KW is gonna possibly improve this team next year. What possibly canhe do?? Nobody is gonna give you s*** for JC. Do you trade JV?? JG?? MB?? I mean how the hell are we gonna get some young talent into this Org.?? I just don't see many of our players having any kind of trade value, except for JG, MB, and possibly JV. Dye isn't worth a damn. Thome??

The draft.

I have no confidence with our Org drafting players and devloping them.

DJ: "No stiffie on that flag tonight."

 

Did anyone else hear that?

DJ was trying to tell us how good Iguchi is with 2 outs this year. On the season, he's now hitting .150 with RISP and 2 outs.

Aside from the draft, this is why I continually mention that our international scouting must improve. Quickly. Otherwise, Williams better receive stellar packages for any player traded; Dye or not. Improbable as it may be, it's just what he has to do to improve the collection of talent within the system. I'm not giving him any sympathy.

 

People may not want to hear it, but realistically, one of Buehrle or Garland has to be traded. Otherwise, better identify raw talent in the lower levels of another ballclub. Thome may be another option, but the problem is finding his replacement. Atleast the pitching within the system has some hope of achieving success.

 

The problem I've identified with Williams is he's more willing to trade someone a year too late rather than a year too early. And yes, I understand we've been in contention and certain players you couldn't expect a dropoff (such as Dye). I sincerely hope he understands the competitors within the division are more talented, and more likely to contend for a championship 08 and byeond.

 

This belief I've held of dealing now rather than later is why I've been a proponent of dealing Jenks. We're not in a good position these next several seasons to compete. Somehow, someway, things need to improve. People with value will need to be dealt unless Williams comes up with a few shrewd moves.

I feel bad for Aardsma...it's got to be difficult pitching in the majors with a 93 mph straight fastball and a terrible offspeed pitch. He's a terrible pitcher, and has no business pitching in the majors.

Logan. Thornton.

Neither is someone you'd rebuild a team around. Either (or both) would bring great value in return.

I still love Boone.

Actually, those are the two guys in the pen we should keep.

Is it just me, or does this game feel like the longest of the season?

Did someone on the Sox sleep with Patterson's mom or something? What does he have against us?

It looks like these guys would rather be anywhere else but here.

 

 

It's fine, after hearing just glowing reports about Pedro Alvarez at the Team USA game today, I have no problem with the Sox losing.
