longshot7 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 (edited) some of this is moot, depending on who's hot at the end of the year - but I figured everyone can try to guess the 25 for the Division Series. mine: infielders (7) Paul Konerko Tadahito Iguchi Juan Uribe Joe Crede Geoff Blum Pablo Ozuna Ross Gload outfielders (4) Scott Podsednik Aaron Rowand Jermaine Dye Timo Perez DH (1) Carl Everett catchers (2) AJ Pierzynski Chris Widger starting pitchers (4) Mark Buehrle Jon Garland Freddy Garcia Jose Contreras or Orlando Hernandez relief pitchers (7) Dustin Hermanson Bobby Jenks Cliff Politte Damaso Marte Neal Cotts Luis Vizcaino Orlando Hernandez or Jeff Bajenaru the main questions I see is if we need that 7th pitcher or another bat (Anderson or Gload) and who gets the 4th starter spot. Right now, I vote for Jose, but we'll see where he is in a month.... And I'm assuming there will be no trades on Wed.

RockRaines Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Ozzie wants 3 catchers, and I bet we carry 12 pitchers, but thats a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt we wouldn't carry 3 catchers all season and then the playoffs come and then we add a catcher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Burke doing in the minors? Would Ozzie want him up? We all know how versatile he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real question is which catcher do we bring up then? Davis has been hurt - so I don't seen any other options but Burke - but I don't see him on the playoff roster. Of course, we could skip AJ for Josh Paul. Edited August 29, 2005 by longshot7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Kid Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I think it's too bad we're not going to see BA on the post season roster -- I think he could be a real spark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I think it might be better if Ozzie took a lefty. BA did prove himself IMO, but there's only so many spots. That is unless Ozzie doesn't take the 7th RP.

WhiteSoxLova6 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 ozzie will prolly call up another catcher and if anything, el duque will be fine to play in the play offs, so he'll most likely get the start over contresas. plus, during the play offs is when he's fine to play and when it comes to pitching in the play off games, he's a winner.

YASNY Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I'd guess the extra catcher would be Burke simply because he can also fill in at 3b, if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
