    I am in my office near the radio listening to ESPN. If I hear anything will post immediately.

    If they don't intend to sign him they had better deal him. His value is enormous right now. The Red Sox might send us three high-level guys; the Mets would give us Carlos Perez and any pitcher we want, IMO.

    I'd be shocked if he went there only because I have read in several places that they won't meet Williams' likely asking price in terms of prospects.

    You're wasting your breath (and Tim's bandwith).

    The White Sox have lost 23 of their last 28 games. :shock: Worse than the 05' and 06' versions of our heros?

    I guess I don't get the humor again. Oh well. RIP Shooter. I loved ya' in 98'. No one got by with less stuff. It was amazing to watch you fling 87 MPH fastballs past major league hitters.

    Several reports that he has specifically told the Reds he would waive his NTC for the Cubs.

    Anyone here get migraines? They blow chunks. I have been layed out for an entire day by one, and the following day feels like the worst hangover of all-time. I changed my diet and that seems (knock on wood) to have helped immensley. Get well soon, DeRo.
  10. RynoRules
    Yup. Probably nitpciking a bit, but I agree.

    Patience with Pie. Let the kid figure it out here. If we surrounded him with a corner OFer who could mash it wouldn't matter.

    My issue with all of this is I guess is trying to figure why it is that players are so highly though of one day (leading to a high ranking for their teams' systems) and then horse poo the next. It happens rather quickly, I think, and not just when guys graduate to the ML level. Thanks for the feedback. Why is the word "feed-back" edited? OK, thanks for the help.

    For the love of pete just deal him already. Who cares what we get back at this point. ](*,)

    Is van buren the kid we traded to the Red Sox a couple of seasons ago?

    I was reading Sullivan's column today (I know, bad idea to begin with much of the time) and he noted that the Cubs systems has eclipsed the Sox in terms of perceived talent level and depth. I found this interesting b/c it seems the two franchises have flip-flopped several times over the last 7 or 8 yrs. At the begining of the decade the Cubs system was on the rise with Hill, Choi, Harris, Pie, Harvey, and all the pitchers. Seemingly overnight the Sox eclipsed them by some distance with McCarthy, the CFs, etc. Now the worm has apparently turned again. I know that many of you follow the minor leagues and high-ranked talent far more closely than I. Is it typical for this to happen so quickly? If so, why? Or is it a reflection of the lack of efficient approach in our system? The Sox aswell? The only team I can think of off-hand with a consistently highly rated system over the last several years is the Angels. Anyone else?

    Looks like Ryno got the final word. :lol: True, but i stopped trying to yesterday.
  17. RynoRules
    :lol: Appreciated nonetheless.

    I'll take what's behind door no. 3!!! Hill seems better, though a bit older. I guess I view Marshall as a 4th or 5th starter, while Hill strikes me as having 2nd or 3rd starter stuff. Unlike EJ, I would not be bothered if Marshall were included in a package for Griffey. Just so long as Hill is not.
  19. RynoRules
    That's how I read it. Writers don't like to say players suck. They talk around such topics. Bingo
  20. RynoRules
    i'm not pushing the argument FWIW. My initial post was a complete throw-away remark. Whatever Sure. Just the second one you have directed at me in 7 days, for apparently no reason whatsoever.

    Glad to - just defending my honor: http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/060907/13135__karate_kid_l.jpg

    What makes you say that? Call it an educated guess Pardon me, but you raised the issue. Now please be kind enough to follow through. Why did you say that? Moreover, why are you still raising your issues in a thread that has absolutely nothing to do with you? i wasn't raising an issue. I was inferring that I would be voting for TT based on a feeling that you did not vote for me. I think this is one in a long string of misunderstandings that lead me to said guess Perhaps you should be more clear in your statements in the future, b/c I really had/have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Your comment about me during my first matchup seemed out of place as well. i don't feel like digging up post history, so we'll just end it at that Ok. So you called me out (twice) and now... For the record, until recently, I had nothing against you. I barely noticed your posts, other than the frequency with which they pop up. In light of this, I have no idea what your deal is. I make a lot of jokes (most dumb) and I feel like you misinterpret them at times. It's nothing personal I have no recollection of this where you are concerned. There a couple of other people whose jokes I don't think are funny. That's different then misinterpreting them.

    Sean we hardly knew ya!! This a good move. Forces Lou not to overuse the pen and gets us what we need in terms of position player flexability. Too bad we have buried ourselves 8.5 back.
