NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I want him back big time but I'm curious about whether the crowd here thinks we can handle not having Maggs around here. I say no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I am pretty much in between. Mags is the face of our team and out perenial all-start. But think about the money we could spend elsewhere, with him gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I'd rather try and rid this team of Lee and Konerko, sign Mags, and put Reed in left. Then if Borchard can keep up his hitting, put him in center and we have a nice outfield. I like Randall Simon, maybe we can try to get him for us at first...

greasywheels121 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I really like Mags, and I hope there's a way we can re-sign him. With that being said, I feel we can live w/out him though. We have a very full OF right now, and we have a few up and comings that play in the OF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danman31 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 We've got Reed and Borchard doing well in AAA. If Maggs leaves money can be spent elsewhere. Of course if Reed and Borchard don't produce we won't be able to replace him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flippedoutpunk Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 We can survive as long as we can sign some other big name player to replace him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 If Oakland can handle being without big names like Giambi and Tejada, I can't see why we couldn't handle Maggs' absence. Even though he's a fan favorite, we can have potential stars in our minor leaguers and we can create other chants than OEO.. Magglio.. He will be missed though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelasDaddy0427 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I agree we can live without Maggs and i'm in the minority who thinks that we should trade him now while we have the chance to get something for him. Just trade him for a pitcher. I think that might be what KW is thinking too now that Maggs is hurt. I believe that it's shown that we can win without him against top teams like the Angels then i'm sorry to say it but he gawn. I love having Maggs on the Sox but we could be doing better without him. The only way we trade him though is for a real legit starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Yes, the Sox COULD do without Magglio, but I hope they don't have to. Of course, they could always trade Maggs to Pittsburgh for Randall Simon....right, Brando? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Sure we could..... when JR signs Beltran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Look at how well the Mariners did after losing Unit, Griffey, and Pay-Rod. We could survive. I just hope and pray we can work somethin out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aboz56 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I think so and I think we will, unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 He’ll definitely be missed. He has allot of fans here in Chicago that will miss his absence, but the White Sox can still win games without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zirc Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 we're winning games without him right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelasDaddy0427 Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 we're winning games without him right now Exactly my point... Sorry Maggs so long but your just not needed anymore.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I hate to see him go but there are always power hitting OFs available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
