Jabroni Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb...t=.jsp&c_id=cws Significant improvement: As the White Sox mobbed Pierzynski around home plate Saturday night, Ross Gload stayed noticeably off to the side. Gload was not about to risk further injury to his left shoulder, even in a moment of a great jubilation. "I was just trying to referee the situation," said Gload, exhibiting his typical deadpan humor. The news has been gradually getting better for the left-handed first baseman since suffering a setback two weeks ago while playing first base for Triple-A Charlotte. White Sox athletic trainer Herm Schneider said that Gload will begin throwing once again on Monday. "Ross is moving along very nicely," said Schneider of Gload, who was placed on the disabled list on April 30 with left shoulder inflammation. "He has fulfilled his dose of medicine and worked hard on strengthening his shoulder. "It's time to take it to the throwing stage and that should move along quickly," Schneider added.

Which would be insane to do. Timo sucks alot more, get rid of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 With the performance that Willie has been turning in lately, I think its Timo's time to go. Willie has shown some key baserunning prowess, finally, and actually has some clutch hits and a GREAT bunt. Willie needs to stay up and improve, while Timo can get the hell out.

Guest JimH Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Hard to knock Harris' performance this year. In general, he's doing what's being asked. I must say I loved his enthusiasm last nite after he got the sac bunt down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUGGERNAUT Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Timo is going bye-bye because Thomas & Everett are staying. Timo is not a good PR option for Oz so Harris & Ozuna have much greater value over him now. Thomas as a PH must be replaced by a good PR. Timo is not an option there.

Balta1701 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Willie Harris proved on Saturday night why he needs to stay on this team instead of This Idiot Makes Outs...he did his best Dave Roberts impression. He came in to pinch run in the 9th, immediately took 2nd off Brazoban, and then scored the tying run on a single by ArRow. Ignore the fact that we have a backup outfielder already in Everett, and a 2nd backup in Ozuna, and hell even a third and fourth backup in Uribe and Harris, and just Harris's speed is reason enough to keep him around.

bjm676 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Willie had two great nights. Saturday night and last night. Stole a huge base on Saturday and had a nice sacrifice bunt on Sunday. He's shown significant improvement over last year in both deparments. That being said, he's probably the odd man out. No purpose Perez stays.

WHarris1 Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 If Willie gets sent down for Ross that is completely absurd. We need Ross as a defensive replacement, bat off the bench, and for the flexability to PR for PK. But there is no reason to send down Willie before Timo - none.

The amazing thing is, there's hardly a person here who doesn't believe that. And I think a majority of people here think that Timo will be the one who stays.

Timo should leave, but it sounds like that's not going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
