SoxAce Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Future All-Star Miguel Olivo. Remember that name KW. I hope he haunts you. Also Jeremy Reed. You traded him before Joe Borchard is a BIG mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I was just kidding about him hitting our starting pitchers with some HR’s. Still... good luck to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitewashed in '05 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Good luck Miggy, I just realized how much I enjoyed watching you and how much I will miss you... Go out there and show Seattle what a good player they got and show KW how much of an idiot he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wise Master Buehrle Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Thinking back to the game against New York when Miguel threw out Matsui at second base. You will be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSF Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Big MO, your slam against the Cubbies last year will forever earn you a place in Sox lore. May you have a wonderful career in the Pacific Northwest for many, many years. It hurts to know that #8 won't be behind the plate anymore for the Southsiders. Cheers.

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 You were one of my favorite young players on the Sox and I wish you much luck over your career. Thank you for the memories and continue to dominate. Agreed. I thought Miggy was awesome during his short time here and I'm really sorry to see him go. Hopefully Garcia is everything he's cracked up to be or I'm gonna be pissed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlizzardOfOzzie Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Man, this completely sucks to say Goodbye to Olivo. Loved watching him play and wish him continued success with the Mariners. As pissed as I am about losing Olivo, I think what we have to remember here is that pitching is EVERYTHING. Without it, you get nowhere. Garcia had better not disappoint us. Furthermore, we better sign Garcia to a long-term deal. Regardless of what happens this season, we better not have lost Olivo for nothing by letting Garcia go after 2004. f*** that. THE CUBS STILL SUCK AND GO SOUTH SIDE SOX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 I also question KW PUBLICLY calling out his game calling. There was nothing wrong with Miguel's pitch calling - at least for a catcher playing in his second ML year. It's not his fault Buehle has been knocked around in 2003 and 2004 It's not his fault Schow doesn't have the talent to be a front-line pitcher. It's not his fault Garland has an erratic breaking ball and no heart It's not his fault Rauch/Diaz/Munoz/Wright/Stewart/Porzio had nothing last 2 years My god I wish Seattle hitting coach gets him to re-adopt and all-field approach.....This guy will be up there with Mauer in the next 5-7 years. Adding to Miguel Memory: his bases-loaded single against Minnesota last September that got us to a rolling start. Hawk was more excited on that 1st inning single than he was on Frank's 2-run walk-off homer against the Twins in July. He gunned Beltran out twice in one week last year. Do you think Ramirez makes an error today if Sandy is running instead of Miguel? Not bloody likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Who the f*** is KW to badmouth Olivo after he's gone? That's some bulls*** if I ever saw it. Miggy did everything he was asked to do and then some and this assclown talks s***. I dont see why he feels the need to badmouth the guy, it's not like we got raped in this deal or anything.

aboz56 Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 Damn I just wanna say once again that I'm going to miss BIG MO. He's got a chance to be great once he learns to nail the hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Interesting, reporter on the Score says Kenny said during the press conference that he was souring on his game calling. Which is why he didn't catch Buehrle. That's total BS. If he's having problems game calling, then he should have got help from the dugout. He's only in his 2nd full season. KW, all class.

YASNY Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 You can add Miguel Olivo to the list of players that have been publically dissed on their way out of town. It's the Reinsdorf way. I mentioned this in an article on whitesoxcentral a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miggy did everything he was asked to do and then some and this assclown talks s***. I dont see why he feels the need to badmouth the guy, it's not like we got raped in this deal or anything. KW is trying to protect himself and his boss. Scumbag. If his bastard puppet-master boss doesn't penny pinch in 2002-2003, there is at least 1 divisional title, higher attendance that comes with winning, more profit for 2004 - he doesn't have to count every measly 100K and could pay for Garcia earilier, which means Miguel stays and some minor leaguer takes his place. I am sorry, but an INTENSE catcher with a live (if raw) power bat, absolute gun for an arm and good speed, one who will be cheap for years to come and whose personality perfectly suits the clubhouse (Uribe, Willie, Jose, Damasso, Ozzie) and the spirit of Soxdom......My god, it didn't have to be this way. Freddy should have been had a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
