Chisoxrd5 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) Were you around the group at the tailgate? Yeah I rolled up about 15 minutes before the game started. I would've gotten there sooner except Steff had me making circles around the park, visiting every group of port-o-potties along the way. :banghead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted August 24, 2005 Author Share Posted August 24, 2005 QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 11:20 AM) Geoff Blum is just about the only guy that's hitting right now other than Ozuna. Blum has picked up 7 hits in his last 6 games including a hit in 5 out of his last 6. He is the least of our worries. I'd like to see Geoff in there everyday. When he came to the plate in the 7th (I think) it said he was hitting .218 with 0 HR and 0 RBI. Did I read it wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjm676 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 (edited) I never thought I see the day when I'd see people begging for Joe Borchard to be called up. Wow. Edited August 24, 2005 by robinventura23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 12:42 PM) Where has this board gone when Joe Borchard goes from whipping boy to savior?

Kalapse Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 12:30 PM) When he came to the plate in the 7th (I think) it said he was hitting .218 with 0 HR and 0 RBI. Did I read it wrong? Blum went 2-18 (.111) in his first 8 games with the Sox. Since then, in his last 6 games he's 7-20 (.350). First 8 Games: .111 Since (6 gms): .350 He's been our hottest hitter of late, he should be in the lineup everday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 24, 2005 -> 09:59 AM) So where is Kenny Williams these days? Anyone hear or see him lately on TV ? Is he on vacation? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He's hurt. Remember he suffered the same injury that Frank did back in 2001? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 I think KW is still with us, he played with the Sox and he's paid to make them better. He has the desire to win a World Series urgently. And I honestly do think he'll pick up a bat soon. Sure it probably won't be Griffey Jr. but someone who will make our offense better. As far as Ozuna playing leftfield, I don't want to see him playing there in the Metrodome, it's hard enough to find the ball there, let alone for him who takes bad angles on balls.

Buster Olney was just on ESPN radio talking about the Sox with Dan Patrick's idiotic replacement. He says that KW has done everything he can to bring in Griffey, it's in the hands of the Reds. I think his words were something along the lines of "he's tried desperately." I feel bad for Aaron, but the truth is that he's not playing very well or very consistent.

Kalapse Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 If we by some astonishing fluke we picked up Sweeney before August 31st, He'd be on the DL by September 10th with back problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
