fathom Posted July 8, 2004 Share Posted July 8, 2004 -After watching the last 5 games, it's becoming clear that this current Sox team is not good. Look at the lineup of the Angels and the Sox, and tell me who has the superior talent. The Angels have much better everyday players, and don't use the injury excuse to Maggs cause they're missing Glaus. -Sox currently have the worst catching core in the majors. Do they have a single catcher that can hit the ball out of the infield with any authority? I supported the Garcia trade, but we gave away a solid player with a high ceiling at the position which might be the hardest to get a good player. -Schoeneweis should be traded to a pitching desperate team like the Reds or Rangers. He has a bad attitude, and it getting shelled. His stuff is mediocre, and he cant get righties out. -The bigget mistake that the Sox have made since Maggs got injured was not calling up Borchard to take his spot on the roster. It's an absolute joke that the Sox have to play a weak hitting lefty right fielder against lefty starters. I know Borchard has struggled before, but he has to have been a better option than Timo against lhp, and don't get me started on Ross Gload in right field. -If the Sox were to fall like 8 games out around July 20th, they should try to trade Maggs. However, I think trading Loaiza is an even smarter thing to do. No way in hell would I pay this guy Freddy money, especially with his arm strength looking bad and that we play in Coors East. Loaiza could get us real good prospects from a pitching hungry team. -Ozzieball is horses***. I can't remember the last time that Ozzie put on a play or did something creative. Hell, at least Manuel didnt have all our pitchers allow 3 hits to start an inning and then pull them like Ozzie has this year. Mark this down: If Freddy Garcia fails during his 3 years, the two best friends will be leaving this organization at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(See Anaheim, Milwaukee, Tampe Bay) - Yes, Schoeneweis BLOWS. Trade his loud-mouth ass. - Would you have said that a week and a half ago when Timo was hotter than ANYONE on the Sox and when Gload could actually field in RF? - No, trading Loaiza would be f***ing stupid. An 8 game lead is a lot but right after the All-Star Break, there is still a whole 1/2 of the season left. - Ozzieball is NOT horses***. Jerry Manuel IS.
