rangercal Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Bmac was awesome today. I can't see how he can't help this team. Do you guys feel he should stay up here to help this club? I say we should send down: Timo and Viz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjm676 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 What about when Gload comes back? Willie go bye bye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I'd assume it will be Walker for the 1st of Frank/Gload and then it will be interesting for who goes next. The thing with Viz is he does have good stuff. He just needs to start throwing his fastball for strikes. Once he does that he'll go back to his pretty dominate ways (the guy was a damn good reliever for the Brewcrew and a total workhorse). The Sox still have a plus pen and one game ain't going to tell me otherwise. I'd send Timo down when the 2nd of Gload/Thomas are back up. Or just flat deal Timo for whatever. Timo's worthless in my book, although he is obviously good friends with Uribe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 There's no way Timo goes down to the minors. They'll end up designating him for assignment on way to an outright release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I can see Vizcaino and Timo being dealt before the AS Break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 This is going to be interesting, all of the sudden we have to much depth, great problem to have just makes for interesting decisions. The obvious one is walker, next I'd have to say Timo, I'm probably the biggest Timo supporter here but Willie and Pablo can do to much for this team, play a ton of positions, lay down bunts, pinch run, etc. After that when Ross is ready to go it's going to be real interesting. If Brandon pitches awesome again against Texas then I really don't know what the hell to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaDoc Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I keep Willie over Timo because he is a much better pinch runner for Frank. If he gets on 7-9 innings, Willie time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doUrememberwhen Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 Vizc, Walker r both strong candidate. Timo will not be sent down for the simple fact that Ozzie 'ricky retardo' like him too much. Gload and Hurt will both be back and the possibility of a 6 man roto might pop it's head up. The other question is, is Ricky Retardo smart enough to realize that vizc timo and walker r all wastes of space in our dugout, NOT LIKELY.

Punch and Judy Garland Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 I'm not down on Viz today because that ball wouldn't normally have left the park. Let's try to wait a month (Frank's return) before knowing what we really have with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may be struggling this year but he's also been a long time horse in the pen and I'm sure the Sox are going to stick with it and hope he can pitch out of his struggles. If he can't he'll be moved around the deadline with a prospect for another quality reliever. Viz has proven he's a good major league pitcher, no reason to give up on him now, not yet. He's sucked this year but he's more than capable of just turning it on and dominating for the rest of the year. Hell part of having htis great record is you have the luxury of being a little more patient and allowing guys to get out of funks when they usually woudl have to just riddle on the bench with you sticking with the hot hand (in the end you'll typically wear down that hot hand and end up losing due to too few guys carrying the show). I have no idea if this last paragraph makes any sense, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no one else. When Duque comes off the DL, Brandon will be back in Charlotte. Only reason that wouldn't be the case is if Brandon is able to get 5 or 6 starts while Duque is on the DL and just kicks ass in those starts. However, if thats the case this team may look a little different anyway due to a trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangercal Posted May 22, 2005 Author Share Posted May 22, 2005 Another guy who should come come up is Bajenaru . We have a lot of depth. I guess that's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
