A sweep would be sweet! :cheers

Thanks! The registration was a little tricky but i figured it out

broom time :bringit

the sox are playing as good as any team in the major leagues right now

Welcome aboard. Siro was one of my favs back in the days. :headbang

 

In regards to the registration, we hope to have it working much better in a week or two.

 

Unfortunately I won't be able to get it fixed until I'm back from my vacation :)

i always worry about jinxing things by talking sweep to early - the team in first place is not going to lie down for us. We need to play them one at a time.

we need to come up with a better nickname for E-Lo or Zesty Esty or what ever you call him. You could always go the Chris Berman route with something like: Estaban "Lo down dirty shame" Iza. It was a shot I guess. :huh:

 

Don't rip my head off for mentioning Berman.

The SOX have the best record post all-star break at 11-2. I would love to see this team ride this wave and have it take us all the way till Oct. :bringit

How about after this season we call him AL Cy Young Winner!!! :headbang

We can call him Cy-Lo!!!! Hell Yeah!!!!!!!! :headbang :headbang :headbang

We can call him Cy-Lo!!!!  Hell Yeah!!!!!!!! :headbang  :headbang  :headbang

Cy-Lo sounds sweet enough :headbang

Cy-Lo sounds sweet enough :headbang

If Colon can pitch the way he is capable of pitching for the rest of the season, this sox team is scary. :)

The only way we can call Esteban Cy Young is if Halladay has a terrible second half. And the way this guys pitching now, its his. Even BBTN says Halladay is the Cy Young.

Halladay 15-2, 3.29 ERA

 

Loaiza 13-5, 2.19 ERA

 

 

Loaiza's ERA is more than a whole run lower and he only has 2 wins less. If those numbers continue and Halladay wins the Cy Young, Im gonna throw a riot.

 

 

Halladay salary: $3,825,000

Loaiza salary: $500,000 :headbang

Just a little thought...if our offense got hot like this in the playoffs, we'd be WS champs. :o :o :o :o

Halladay 15-2, 3.29 ERA

 

Loaiza 13-5, 2.19 ERA

Not only is Loaiza's ERA MORE than a full run better than Halladay's, but this is the most telling stat of all IMO...

 

Run support...

 

Halladay = 7.15 (#2 in the AL, 3rd overall)

Loaiza = 4.76 (#32 in the AL, not even in the top 40 overall)

 

So basically, if you give Loaiza the run support that Halladay has received, he'd be at least 16-2.

 

Scoreboard.

Plus, the sox are much more likely to make the playoffs, which helps. The advantage Halladay has is, hes a known commodity. That may get him in.

IMO, if the Sox make the playoffs and Loaiza's ERA is a full run better than Halladay's, it's a slam dunk. The thing that got Halladay all the publicity is this damned winning streak he's on. It's too bad we blew the lead in the last game that we faced him -- otherwise it would be over. Oh well.

lol read this preview from whitesox.com:

 

Players to watch: Any one in a White Sox uniform who brings a bat to the plate is pretty much fair game during this recent hot streak. But Magglio Ordoñez is putting up numbers only seen in video games. The White Sox right fielder has an amazing eight straight multi-hit games and is 25-for-39 during his 10-game hitting streak.

Nah dude, Halladay was known as one of the best starters in the AL coming into this season, Loaiza was known as a bum. that could play against e-lo.
