I wonder if Franks ankle isn't well enough yet to play defense...if Ozzie is going to give people work, I am kind of surprised Frank isn't playing first and sitting Paulie...

Because frank would porbaly get reinjured

Frank won't play an inning in the field this entire season. He said in the paper he doesn't want to risk reinjuring himself.

Frank was quoted in the paper yesterday that he would not play 1B. He does not want to take a chance with that ankle. If he fractures it again, he said, he would be done for his career and he wants to play 4 more years at least.

Thomas was emphatic he would serve only as a designated hitter because of his 10½-month recovery from a severe left ankle injury.

 

"I'm not going to play first until next year," Thomas said. "I'm not going to risk the injury. I'm not going to risk reinjuring my ankle. It's important because if I reinjure it, I'm done.

 

"I want to last another four years and it's going to take a whole year to heal this thing. It's not really a choice because I can go there now and push the wrong way and refracture it. That's how I fractured it last year."

No way do I want to see Frank playing the field. When he was healthy he stunk out there and I shudder to think what could happen with a shaky ankle.
