Elcaballo45 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Rocket off of the baggy up at the Metrodome. Although I'm enjoying what Podsednik has done for us this year, I miss Carlos!! Way to go Caballo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanky Panky Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 You know, C. Lee beat the Cubs twice this year. Now, he's going to help put the Twins farther behind in the AL Central. Hells yeah! Props go out to Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 El Caballo brought us 2 key pieces to this puzzle, and has been doing some Cub and now Twin killing, so I have no hard feelings at all. Congrats to Carlos on a big accomplishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ottawa_sox Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Carlos with a bases loaded none out double in the 7th for a 6-0 Brewers lead on the Twinkies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabroni Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Carlos with a bases loaded none out double in the 7th for a 6-0 Brewers lead on the Twinkies. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep, Lee is now 3 for 4 with a HR, 2 doubles, and 4 RBI's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Not a bad catch by Carlos right there. Possibly robbing a home run from Jaque Jones, he's having one hell of a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 It was really hard to see him go, but like its been said Pods has been great and so has AJ and iguchi and everything. Although ill always forever be a Carlos Lee fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam8610 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I still like Carlos. As of now, he's my favorite non-Sox player. I just wish he didn't have to be traded for the Sox to get Pods. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 We never should have traded C Lee. It's w/out a doubt we needed Pods but we didn't have to trade Lee to get him. We could have worked a 3 way trade using Koney to get to Pods. Milw was looking for a proven hitter to play in the OF. Several teams had that. Those teams were looking for a proven hitter to play 1B. But when I heard that it was Milw & checked to see that they are in fact the cross-league rival of the Twins I said if it had to be any team thank God it was the Brewers. They've got 4 more with the Twins & I expect Lee to come up big in most of them. Watching Lee make a difference against the Cubs is always a good thing. The best thing about the Lee trade is that there are no hard feelings. Ozzie's mouth nearly jeaopardized that but Lee answered those claims hard with the big slide into 2B that radically altered the Cubs season. Lee has not received a contract extension yet. That keeps the WSox in the running for getting him back in 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I've read nothing that strongly suggests to me that C Lee was an idiot in the clubhouse. I think the Marte stuff was grossly exagerated. If that was true, just imagine the infighting that must have gone on with Maggs & Ozzie. I think most of that stuff is exagerated. Just like it was with AJ in SF. As for his talent to run the base pads I would say he has above average ability but his mental lapses make him below average. But I can live with that when you consider his money stats: HRs, RBI's, RISP, & RON. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
