TLAK Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I understand all the cheering, but looking at the team, who do they have, and give me a name, who is going to do better than Mike Jackson in that role? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Yeah I can understand releasing him, but why now? It should have been a long time ago, if you're going to keep him until now, you might as well keep him for the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 This was to open up a roster spot for a minor league call up. Off the top of my head neither Sweeney or Anderson is on the 40 man roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 OK, and I will eat crow on this one, I thought they'd keep him the rest of the year because he's a well respected and established veteran, etc. Good for the Sox, he might have been good in the clubhouse but it's more important to find out what some other guys can do. He got his 1000 appearances, passed Gossage on the alltime list, see ya. That's what you get for not plunking Torii Hunter, you Twin Loving SOB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 That's what you get for not plunking Torii Hunter, you Twin Loving SOB Amen brother, I don't care if you're best friends with the guy, he's your arch rival for the time being. Or was an arch rival is the correct term now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I understand all the cheering, but looking at the team, who do they have, and give me a name, who is going to do better than Mike Jackson in that role? Frank Thomas -- He has a better arm than thriller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Honda Civic Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 That is a diss if i have ever heard one. That should be qualified. MJ was a good Major league pitcher once. But his time has passed. It's sort of like saying I'm a better hitter than Ted Williams. It's true right now, but for most of time it's false.

BridgeportHeather Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Hope the Cubs are stupid enough to pick him up. The guy was worse than 6-fingers Alfonseca! Just brutal. He brought absolutely nothing to the table here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 4 months after he should of been the white sox release Mike Jackson. Felix Diaz is called up to take his place. Oh how wonderful. They swap out a BP pitcher for a tee ball stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
