  1. Why does the team allow him to hold press conferences and what not if this is so close? Just curious...
  2. I don't know him personally but DJ seems to go out of his way to praise him. I suppose if Loaiza got lit up last evening he would be blasted for leaving the team over the weekend because it was a big series. I recall Valentin forgetting how many outs there were in Cleveland and getting doubled off of second on an infield pop-up. I guess he was just instilling his aggresive style. I agree with you totally but we all have our own opinion.
  3. There are plenty of flaws in his game that people like to point out. For some reason Paul Konerko and Jose Valentin get a pass for all of their mistakes yet any time Jimenez does anything wrong, he needs to go and is a dickhead. Jose Valentin has an OBP that is not even in the same range as Jimenez and Konerko adds nothing to this team but for some reason they are not the problem. There appears to be the feeling that being nice rah-rah guys supercedes one's ability to produce. Mark Buerhle, Paul Konerko, Jose Valentin, Billy Koch, Gary Ward and Carlos Lee are the reason we are not winning, yet somehow hitting over .300 and have an OBP over .400 are not good enough. I don't understand.
  4. If this team wants to be taken seriously, Colon negotiations should heat up. Loaiza, Colon and Buerhle should give us real hope year after year. Imagine where we would be without Loiaza....hoovering around Cleveland.
  5. At least he got on base. When will Jose Valentin's average (identical to Thomas,) become an issue. I agree that Jimemez has done some stupid things but compared to Konerko and Buerhle he is not on the radar screen of reasons we are failing. If he wasn't thrown out at third he probably wouldn't have scored anyway. This play is Kimm not being clear to stay at third when rounding the bag. I really do not understand why Jimemnez is blasted here he is doing his job and has soem flaws but over-all I think we can win with him.
  6. The gig was for KW to state he is reconsidering his status with the team. Nothing final or new that we didn't already know.
  7. I have a feeling this is a clear the air bulls*** thing. The players would be in the dugout as bating practice is about to begin. I also think the media is not allowed into the locker room at various times during game day. With no media coverage this is problem jsut a "team meeting' thing.
  8. I thought this as well but did not want to get my hopes up to high. I changed my name on this Board hoping this would happen. I can't take much more. let's give KW the ole I actually like KW and the moves he has made.
  9. This could be to clear the air on the KW kids ordeal remember he was heading home today.
  10. You do not have to believe them. You can make something up and if it falls through we will never believe you again. Not sure about Steff but HSC has in the past lead us to believe things that were true and we had insight into things that were happening that affected the club we follow. If you don't trust her fine but why not just state that and let it go. She is not trying to form a cult, despite what my name may say, she is just spreading info and keeping us up to date with our team.
  11. Could we have gotten a healthy Loften? As I am beginning to beleive that KW is the main problem here, did he and Loften differ in their thinking? He would look great right now.
  12. Leave it to the soccer crowd to blow my cover.
  13. ok so who are you from the mlb boards and when can i get that beer??????lol.. The next home game that KW is not the general manager. I will tell you that I am not the guy from Kansas City and I love the former second baseman that was traded for Tony Bernazard.
  14. Didn't Graff homer off Mulder last week?
  15. I am from the MLB Board and if this is true, I owe many an apologize and you one of the biggest beers they could roll into the place.
  16. My candidate to CYA in this whole thing would be to bring in Dave Stewart. We could then have Bike, jockstrap night and Jack McDowell growth chart night.
