BurlyMan56 Posted October 22, 2003 Author Share Posted October 22, 2003 In no way do I want to rebuild. But if we can get Cruz for about 4 mil, trade Maggs and his 14 million somewhere...We would have 10 mil to spend somewhere..Cruz OPS was a solid 779..Plus he played at a pitcher's park in Pac Bell..He's solid defensively at right...That's 10 mil that can go to a LOT of positions. Don't get me wrong, Maggs is a great player,just not for 14 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted October 22, 2003 Share Posted October 22, 2003 Ya on same page as me. I have been backing Cruz for sometime. I'd love to see him here. Don't tell me he can't play CF too (cause I won't listen ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbieRubarb Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Cruz OPS was a solid 779.. That's solid? His hype and talent, he should be in the 850-900 range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Fainter Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Talk aabout your average overpaid ballplayer. This clown is the classic underachiever. If he plays in Chicago, I hope it's with the Cubs. You guys who think that we should get Jose Cruz don't know s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll pass. Our outfield is not our weakness. We need to find a new shortstop, and a 5th starter and maybe some help in the pen.

southsider2k5 Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Everything I have ever heard about Cruz is that he is the same guy as Jimenez. Incredible talent but lazy as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To bring up a guy's name and people disagreeing with me is fine..But someone saying I don't know s*** just because I bring up a guy's name is pretty lame...

BurlyMan56 Posted October 23, 2003 Author Share Posted October 23, 2003 It's solid considering he played 82 games at Pac Bell; a pitcher's park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesox61382 Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 It's solid considering he played 82 games at Pac Bell; a pitcher's park. Except for the fact that he hit better at home then on the road. Home OPS(.808) vs Road OPS(.751). So much for that arguement. The fact that he has been a high-.700's OPS guy almost everywhere he has played suggests that he is nothing more then that. The area that the Sox offense needs to improve in the most is batting average, and Cruz's career batting average of .251 would actually increase the biggest problem. No thanks to Cruz. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
