my report from soxfest


baggio202

Recommended Posts

had a great time at sox fest...met up with about 20 posters from various boards and people ive met at comiskey before...couldnt drink cause im on medication for my surgery but there was plenty of alcohol and all had a good time...

 

questions i asked...brian daubach...jerry seems to really like him..he stiopped just short of gaurenteeing him a roster spot..saying i cant gaurentee it but if brian performs like i he has before and i know he can this spring , he will make the team...jerry even said he plans on getting him more at bats than he got in boston...being the only lefty that will bat in the 3 through 9 spots..brian has a chance to get in the line up a lot..

 

talked about lack of speed at the top of the order and how that will effect how jerry manages...jerry said that while we dont have the superspeed at the top he believes this club overall is a much better base running team then last year (wonder if that means carlos wont play as much :lol: )...speed at other positions improved..look for him to bunt and hit and run a little more this year...

 

this years line up off the top of jerry's head...

jimenez- 2b (kenny and jerry feel he is finally back 100%)

valentin -ss (jose is our SS this year) !!

maggs rf

paulie 1b

thomas dh

lee lf

crede 3b (kenny and jerry both expecting alot from joe)

rowand cf (they expect him to be ready - aaron says otherwise from another repot)..should be interesting

alomar c (yes, jerry said sandy will be the starter - 5 days a week)

 

mark buehrle said the best off season move was bring ing sandy back..that sandy was responsible fo alot of his success...said he has only thrown to josh a couple of time and never to olivo..but is real comfortable with sandy...

 

colon long term...kenny said that he didnt trade for colon with the idea of not signing him long term...will work on it during the season...the better the team performs the better the chances of us signing colon long term...

That's mildly scary, but at least helped by the fact that buerhle vouches for him. Still though, replace the hole in the 9 spot vacated by royce with another hole created by sandy.

how did frank look?

 

in shape?

i didnt see frank....the line to get his autograph filled up about an hour before he got there..and he had a closed room just for him...HSC's kids stood in line about 3 hours to get his autograph..after the session i or nobody i was with saw him or if they did they didnt mention it...
