ChiSox Rants: October 2005
http://chisoxrants.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
News, notes, stats, and thoughts about the Chicago White Sox. Monday, October 31, 2005. It's Over, Over There! Not to discredit any of the other improvements the Sox have made this season (better defense/pitching, adopting an unselfish "team" attitude, bringing in a catcher who knows how to call a game and can actually hit, upgrading at 2B, etc.), but if this team were not such Road Warriors I doubt that we would be able to call them 2005 World Champions.

ChiSox Rants: April 2006
http://chisoxrants.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
News, notes, stats, and thoughts about the Chicago White Sox. Saturday, April 01, 2006. Contreras Signs 3-Year Extension. The Sox have signed Jose Contreras to a three-year, $29 million extension through the 2009 season. The deal is just about exactly the same in length and overall value as what Sox signed. To over the winter. Honestly, I was much more surprised when the Sox were able to sign. In signing with the Sox Contreras has shown the same loyalty. Showed back in December in that they both could ha...

Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Thursday, December 15, 2005. Sox continue to deal: Vazquez in, El Duque/Viz/Chris Young out. But, hey, here we are, one day after the Sox made another significant dent in transforming their ballclub: acquiring righty starter Javier Vazquez. Posted by Tim @ 4:51 PM. View my complete profile.

Hegawn!: Sox pull trigger on huge trade of Rowand to Philly for Jim Thome.

Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. Sox pull trigger on huge trade of Rowand to Philly for Jim Thome. So it's hello to Brian Anderson in Center Field next year, an experiment I'm willing to endure, given the promise he showed during his short stint in the majors this year, sitting in for an injured Scott Podsednik. Thome is due $42.5 million over the next 3 years, so how much will Philly kick in? Posted by Tim @ 3:21 PM.

Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Saturday, January 28, 2006. On January 17, the Sox avoided arbitration and re-signed Joe.Crede! The White Sox announced ex-Sox CF Chris Singleton would join Ed Farmer in the radio booth. Longtime Sox organist Nancy Faust has agreed to a 2006 contract. Big Frank" Thomas has found a home for the 2006 season. Posted by Tim @ 4:32 PM. View my complete profile. Garland: back in 2006 (and 2007 and 2008). Some news is good news.

Hegawn!: November 2005
http://hegawn.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Meet Paul Konerko: White Sox Lifer. Or so it seems. The deal is apparently pretty straightforward: 5 years at $12 million per, with a limited no-trade provision that blocks the Sox from dealing him to just 6 teams in the future, so it seems like both sides gave a little and got a little (if you consider $60 million "little"). Posted by Tim @ 8:07 PM. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. The AP is reporting.

Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Saturday, November 19, 2005. Some news is good news. Small developments the last few days, most of them off the field. Pablo Ozuna was resigned. For one more year @ $500,000 if he's up with the team in the majors. A good signing; I think Pablo will be a bench guy for most if not all of the next year. Solid fielder with great speed. Comcast is going to be rebroadcasting. To start airing on Thanksgiving evening:. Life at 35th and Sh...

Hegawn!: More on Rowand-for-Thome
http://hegawn.blogspot.com/2005/11/more-on-rowand-for-thome.html
Thoughts on the Chicago White Sox, baseball, bad TV, cheap beer, and more. Wednesday, November 23, 2005. The AP is reporting. That the Phillies will be kicking in about half of Thome's salary over the next 3 years, or $22 million, which is a staggering sum. However, the White Sox are also sending over two minor league pitching prospects. Also: does KW have designs on a replacement Center Fielder? Juan Pierre, perhaps? Posted by Tim @ 4:42 PM.
