CubKilla Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 With who's up here right now? Rios. If we go to the minors? Borchard. Even with all of Borchard's predicted whiffs, he'd be a bigger threat and would probably, on occasion, come through with a hit or two unlike Aaron "Dorn" Rowand.

greg775 Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Should we bring up Borchard now? How come Aaron suddenly is Royce revisited? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted April 24, 2003 Author Share Posted April 24, 2003 Aaron has no stick at all. I mean I could live with a hit once every other game, but this is getting ridiculous. If JB was 100%, I'd say bring him up now but he isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 If he ain't 100 percent then we better play Rios. He might be our Loiza of the field. A guy destined to have a great year. I'm moderately concerned about our team. Anybody else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I'm moderately concerned about our team. Anybody else? I've been concerned since Botch blew that 5-4 lead in the 9th to the Royals. It should be a real treat starting next week when we begin our West Coast (see: GOOD TEAMS) swing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFanForever Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 By "real treat" do you mean ugly? I really hope we don't get molested like last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted April 24, 2003 Author Share Posted April 24, 2003 Nothing could be worse than the 19-1 smack down the Angels put on us last season. Actually, hold that thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, atleast we'll be there live on Tuesday to watch them attempt and beat the A's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, atleast we'll be there live on Tuesday to watch them attempt and beat the A's. If we play like we have been, we will have another BRUTAL west coast trip. This isn't the AL Central anymore. We will be playing REAL teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Well I picked Rios but thats if we don't make any moves. I want Rowand down in AAA with Harris coming up for the time being. Lets see what Willie can do. I know one thing, Willie will drop some bunts, hustle his ass of (Rowand does too) and will provide a crapload of speed. Lets give the kid a shot, he can't possibly do worse then Rowand. Then give Borchard a bit more time, mainly to get healthy and readjust some more and then bring him up if Harris isn't doing it. I want Harris to get the at bats to prove whether he can do it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 well if you want joe up here then why move aaron.....they are doing about the same thing with major league pitching arent they???? i say go with rios till one of them gets their collective s*** together and can hit a ball..........now for me to say this (all of you knowing how much i love borchard and like rowand) rios has got to be the soulition for now..........

YASNY Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Maybe we need to send Aaron down till he finds his stroke. This may be after effects of the injury, like Frank's was last season. If that's the case, we can't afford to let Rowand scuffle along up here until he begins to hit. Bringing up Harris could cause a problem, as Jiminez is doing great in the lead off spot, though Harris could be a real threat there. I think we should send Rowand down, bring up Harris and bat him 8th, in front of Olivo and 9th when Alomar is catching. Having Harris on base will get Olivo some good pitches to hit, and he has enough speed so as not to clog the bases for DJ and JV. I like Rowand, and believe he can be a good ballplayer, but I'm afraid this injury he suffered is still affecting him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grebeck Fan Club Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Drop Rowand for a couple of weeks and bring up Harris. Rios should still get some playing time. He's an OK guy but shouldn't be a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
