QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 10:32 PM) Uribe's not going to the DL. He says he's fine, and wanted to play tonight. Schnieder is just being cautious. That's not what someone in this very thread just reported was said on the radio. They said Uribe was DL bound if he wasn't feeling better tomorrow. Trust me, I hope I'm wrong. Uribe's our most dangerous hitter.

Well, if Uribe sounds like he's going on the DL, and Ozuna's hand is swollen, it's going to be a while before either of them are close to 100 pct. I highly doubt anyone would claim Timo, so we could get him back off the waiver wires if KW and Ozzie can't live without him.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 10:24 PM) So what would your remedy be? We have no other major league ready calibur SSs on the 40 man roster, so in order to get someone else up here, we would have to expose one of our current roster members to waivers, just to get a guy up for for what will most likely only be a game or two at most. Is it worth risking a prospect for one or two games? The only other guy we have is Pedro Lopez who is just turned 21, and has never seen a major league pitch. He is also a guy who looked overmatched and extremely raw just a month ago in Arizona. It is easy to say KW should do something, but it isn't as easy as it sounds. I said exactly what should be done.....release Timo! We have absolutely no need for him on the team. If we end up needing a RF to take over for Dye, then call up Anderson or Borchard. There are some middle infielders that can be claimed, including guys like R. Gutierrez. No one is particularly good, but much better than making Crede or Harris play SS.

QUOTE(thomsonmi @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 10:13 PM) They just announced the Willie thing on ESPN 1000. Thanks

I'm sorry, but Harris starting at SS tonight is bulls***. To play at least two MLB games with guys who have never played there before it absolutely inexcusable. I know KW would rather starve his own kids, but it's time we release Timo and call up another middle infielder. With Harris being able to play in the outfield (poorly, but still much better than he plays SS), there's no use for Timo.

How deep was Sweeney's fly out there?

For anyone watching, did T. Long botch Ford's double, or was it legit?

A little disheartnening that we've got out to such a great start, and the Twins are still 2.5 games behind us.

Yes, the umpires have sucked the last two games. However, I don't want to see the Sox start acting like the Cubs when it comes to umpires. Right now, I don't like Hawk blaming the umpires for blowing the last two games. There were dozens and dozens of plays that helped determine the outcome of both games that had nothing to do with the umpires. I just want to see our guys keep their composure when the situation becomes heated. Crede got screwed, but he had to know to keep his mouth quiet because of our lack of depth right now.

KW better make a roster move if Uribe is unable to go this wknd. How come teams never end up having to put their outfielders at SS against us?

QUOTE(whitesoxeducator @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 10:17 PM) you like to piss in peoples corn flakes, don't you? WTF are you talking about? If we execute like we should have early in the game, the umpire doesn't matter. Even if Crede is allowed to go to first base, we still need a hit from Pods.

You know what sucks. If we lose this game, everyone will blame it solely on the umpires, and nothing else. Instead of neglecting the awful offensive execution we've had, I bet Ozzie will make it sound like we would have won 10-1 if not for Hunter and crew.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 10:12 PM) We do taht and we have some serious problems. Might want to reconsider, no matter how mad you are. Thanks

Unbelievable. I hate this f***ing field and these gay ass umpires.

Perfect time for A.J. to bail on the pitch and let Hunter get hit in his vagina.

I guess this isn't what people want to hear right now, but another horses*** swing by Crede there. Swinging straight up on a very hittable pitch isn't what was needed there.

f*** these umps.

Make him pay for it Crede.

Ozzie should get tossed here.

Should have been strike 3 there.

Widger trying to hit a 3 run homer there also. Just a terrible approach by our guys today with RISP.

Good AB by A.J.

QUOTE(Y2HH @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 09:55 PM) Because our bench is almost empty as it is...and if this game goes long we may need Timo later. For where? Where else can we use Timo besides for batting for Dye?

Ozzie: HIT and RUN!

Seriously, why not let Timo ph for Dye there?
