Cubs Suck23 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 (edited) QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:44 PM) Why because Ozzie values his latin players a bit more. I am sure Timo would be playing 1st for the Angels late in games. Ozzie pretty much didnt want Carlos Lee,Jose Valentin or Ordonez back and last time I checked they were all latin as well Edited July 20, 2005 by Cubs Suck23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) No.. because it's ignorant and incredibly racist sounding. How is it racist. Now we are stretching a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) I actually like our chances against those 4. None of them have ERA's under 4, and Miller's has been crap. And Clement's ERA is over 9.00 this month in 3 starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:44 PM) Clement, Wakefield, Miller and Arroyo will all look much better though when facing the White Sox lineup as opposed to that of the Yankees, Orioles, or Blue Jays. I knew this was going to get ugly if the Sox lost this one, check that..if the sox trailed in this one. I'm done arguing with you guys, I'll just let the Sox do the talking for me this weekend. I'll stop posting in the game threads also, that should make you guys happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2HH Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 We were SHELLED. Whatever, 5 wins 2 losses, I'll take it every time.

I didn't really have a problem with it. Is there any other plausible explanation why Timo is still on the roster (where we clearly don't have a need for another OF) and Gload is in the minors (where we clearly have a need for a backup --or maybe even a starting-- 1st baseman)?

These have turned into the flavor of the week bash fest, and don't even talk about what is going on in the game. I feel depressed after reading these. We played bad the last couple of games, but have won 5 of 7 since the break. We have bounced back all year after losing a couple in a row. I'm going to enjoy this series against Boston and stay out of these threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
