what the fuck is going on in the AL central!
sheesh
"I think that's a lot of horse muffins." - Bob Feller
this is rather amazing.
considering the tigers will be carrying ryan raburn (not to mention likely another back-up OF, like clete thomas). it’s okay, everyone. your team will be fine if you have a guy who can just hit the ball.

Its a conspiracy!
NL special interest groups are lobbying AL managers to stop using the DH position as intended. Pouring millions into the AL manager’s pockets, specifically the AL central is where they have decided to start their fight. Dark, dark days are ahead my friends!
If, in fact, I am able to meet Dumbrowski
this spring, as I havebeen told, I may have a question or two for him.
Wrigley Field is a postage stamp shithole. It reeks of piss worse than R. Kelly’s underage girlfriend. It’s falling apart faster than Amy Winehouse. Their fans are denial-addled jagoffs of lowest stripe.
I want Randy Winn as DH
Sure he’s not traditionaly a run producer, but neither was Julio Franco, and we all remember how good he did. And we don’t even need Winn in the 4 spot.
RISP – .319avg/.379obp/142pa
2outs RISP – .370avg/.443obp/61pa
Thome:
RISP – .253avg/.413obp/121pa
2outs RISP – .261avg/.424obp
Winn did a better job getting a hit. Thome did a better job pasing the torch. Oh yeah, Winn can also steal ~ 20 bases and play gold glove defense.
thanks Randy, but no

Um...
Winn’s only value is in his defense, so DH’ing him would be the most counterproductive measure the team could do.

I thought we wanted DH's whose primary function was a good glove.
This should be an interesting season, one way or another.

For the games where Quentin DH’s, we have Pierre, Rios and Winn in the outfield. Sounds pretty impressive to me.
Except for Rios post-2007, Pierre and Winn.

So is Ozzie gonna yell, "We're getting Thome back, (mumble, mumble)!"
to reporters right before getting on plane out of town? I think today might be the day, yay or nay.

i don't recall seeing this quote
in any of the chicago papers or on here.
Early you might see stupid things on the field and I will be second guessed. But I will take my chances
you are certainly one of the more ridiculous people on this board. ~ larry
Piranha-like comments get run in the Minnesota papers.
They adore Ozzie, as he adores them. “Everything in motion”. I can’t wait for Paulie and AJ to hit-and-run.

it's ozzie's annual tradition
The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.
White Sox news, Minor Leagues updates and more
BP: Perrotto sez Sox may sign Thome Monday.
Talks between free agent designated hitter Jim Thome and the White Sox have heated up this weekend, and he could wind up signing with them as soon as Monday.
i could see collusion
getting rid of the full time DH’s, so there’ll be little outcry to get rid of the damn thing altogether.
kenwo now has a daughter.
i’ve asked grant desme to pray for her.
congrats.

there's nothing the Catholics can do

I'd rather have Rios steal 50 bases than hit 50 home runs. I want production.
But maybe 815 or DCFS can intervene?

Shit... free flight to Florida
I will take it…
On a serious note, Congrats Kenwo… hopefully she brings you even higher ratings
Maybe Rev. James L. Greanias could preform the blessing

I swear I was going to post that
when he talked about his male child being named “Frank”. Good work, KenWo. e-gus, your next child still ought to be named “KenWo”.

WordUpThome: WILL I BE REQUIRED TO PLAY INSIDE OF THE TRASH BAGS OR SIMPLY AMONGST THEM
I heard she came out bitchin' about Ozzie, just like her old man.
Good health!

Great article on Bobby Jenks, and some of the non-baseball changes he has made in his life this past offseason.
Packers done...now 3 months of sports hell.
Baseball News
I recently started reading Craig Calcaterra’s “Circling the Bases” for league-wide baseball news and thought I’d mention it to all of you. It strikes me as one of the better general baseball blogs for incredibly up-to-date news, and Craig’s slightly warped sense of humor reminds me of many of you:

Not to say that I...
couldn’t do a better job with fewer billable hours. I was going to suggest that Craig is just as acerbic as you, but who was going to believe that?
“I think it helps me out a lot,” Pierre said of his rapport with Guillen. "He knows I like to run. He knows I bunt probably in times you don’t think so, like a two-strike bunt. He won’t be, "What is he thinking?’ It’s good for me because a lot of times a new manager has to get adjusted to my style of play.

I have a client who is a Mets fan.
We are betting who ends up with the most disappointing year.
