whille harris had the following to say after they showed a clip of him laying down the "perfect bunt" ::

 

"thats what im tryin to do, is get on base early for the big bats. get on early so they dont have to wait for me to steal a base"

borchard did really well at the plate... he hit a home run and a single of el duque.

 

garland pitched well, said he felt very confidant and comfortable up there... he out did arron rowand in a 12 pitch at bat.

Quick summary here;

 

Former first-round draft pick Josh Fields had one of the five hits against Hernandez, a long two-run home run.

 

"We have a good scouting report on (Fields)," Guillen said. "He still needs work at third base. He's still a kid. He needs to play some baseball games, but I'm really impressed by the way he swings the bat."

 

Joe Borchard and Ryan Sweeney hit solo homers, while Jon Garland pitched three scoreless innings.

That's a wierd statement from Harris. What did he mean?

Sounds like he is still scared to steal to me.

 

sounds like it, but....

Leading off the second inning of Monday's second White Sox intrasquad game at Tucson Electric Park, Willie Harris dropped down a perfect bunt for a base hit. He immediately swiped second base and moved to third on a fly ball to Joe Borchard in right.

I saw clips of the intrasquad games from CSN and newscast. Fox showed Young crashed into Aceves at the plate. Saw Fields hit a HR too. Borchard said he felt pretty good, i'm still hoping for him to do good.

 

chisox.com said it was owens, not young...

Defensively, Aceves also survived a collision at the plate with Jerry Owens, stopping short the would-be run in the fourth inning.

Glad to see Joe Borchard to good, but Orlando Hernandez is starting to worry me, I hope he plays gets off to a good this regular season.

 

I've never been really happy about us getting El Duque but isn't he notoriously bad at pitching to his own teammates?

 

Excuse me if I'm wrong but I thought I saw that written somewhere.

Don't give a any thought to a pitcher being ineffective in Arizona ... especialyy a pitcher that has never experienced ST there before. Hernandez is a veteran and knows what the hell he's doing. It don't mean a damn thing until April.

Methinks AJP is referring to the rotation. 

 

As of right now, Contreras is not above average, and Garland is about right at average.

Contreras' stuff is unquestionably above average, though... Garland... well, some here talk about his great stuff. If he ever finds real command of his curveball then yeah he's above average. Right now though, he's just "even steven".
