a lot of this is about asses in seats.

collins’ teams have always shown a big improvement over the previous season. and he has some instant credibility with the knuckleheads. bulls fans weren’t going to have patience for ty corbin.

i think the idea is to hire him

and one of other top choices as an assistant. you get the three good years out of collins (the teams always improve under him) and then have a non-retread take over when collins pulls his larry brown.

Is Heath humble or what? But he doesn't give up. From Mark Gonzales' mailbag

I have to admit I was wrong with my assessment of ”...a healthy Jerry Owens, helps the team more than a healthy Carlos Quentin” a few weeks ago. The more I read about his preparation and ability when healthy, I can see why Williams targeted this guy a couple years ago. I still contend more speed is needed in the lineup to field a better all-around team, but definitely not at the expense of Carlos Quentin. Do you know the latest on Owens being possibly called up (any chance Thome gets moved before the break and moving Paulie to DH to make room), or since they are playing so well lately has everything kind of been put on the backburner?—Heath, Omaha

Not a fan of using Dotel here.

I’d rather opt for a second Thornton inning or maybe Masset. Tampa’s got two lefties, so higher-leverage situations to be had.

Never trust a big butt and a smile.

Minor nitpick,

why ‘waste’ dotel with the biggest lead in a week?

Not minor at all

Long, probably tight series. Rather see him over the weekend.

dammit, I forgot to click post…

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

stolen bases

will cabrera call the press box and contend indifference?

by nelsons on May 29, 2008 8:40 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Any stats on Dotel with runners on vs not?

I hardly remember him with the bases empty except to give up a leadoff baserunner, but on fire with runners on.

Beginning Wednesday, street light banners commemorating a series of special events in Chicago are going on the auction block for charity. Some of the banners were shown off Tuesday, including those featuring Pres. Barack Obama both before and after his election. A White Sox World Series Championship banner, signed by pitcher Mark Buehrle, is also being sold, as is a Blackhawks playoff banner signed by Denis Savard and Stan Mikita. The bidding starts at 12 p.m. Wednesday at Daley Center. Money raised goes to help the Chicago Anti-hunger Federation and the Greater Chicago Food Depository.
