irishsoxer Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 QUOTE(Felix @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 05:35 PM) KW has a mancrush on BA, and with good reason Anderson will not be a Sox within 2 years -book it. He has had ample opps to prove himself -come on all you man crushers, he just doesnt have what it takes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Why don't we just let Anderson and McCarthy take the field every day considering the man crushes so many Sox fans on this board have for both. Play 2 against 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 05:05 PM) I would be shocked and happy to see him hit .240. That would mean a great improvement. I rag on Anderson a lot, not because I don't think he's a great talent. I certainly think he is. But this is a team built to make a run at consecutive championships and the gamble that he could carry his weight in the lineup was a total bust. In the early stages it looked like his AB's would be negated by the sluggers in the lineup, but May is long gone and when we've needed someone who's a legitimate threat to get on base, move runners along and just have quality at bats, Brian hasn't done his job. People b**** that ozzie should play him more when I'm surprised he's received as much playing time as he has. A move at the deadline to bring in a replacement was sorely needed, IMO.

Play 2 against 9. It's fun that you people can continue to speak in absolutes with absolutely no evidence to back it up. How about instead of using "man crush" over and over you give me some legit statistical proof to back up your claims? No, you can't do that because it's not possible. So the Sox need someone to get onbase???? Anderson is not capable of doing this huh? Over the past 3 months here are the OBPs for a select few players: Iguchi: .353 Uribe: .289 Crede: .329 Podsednik: .309 Pierzynski: .306 Anderson: .338 Yes, Anderson is far and large the worst hitter in the Sox lineup at getting on base, of course the stats don't back this up but hey what the f*** does that matter.

When KW goes to bed at night, he does not dream about sex with his wife, he does not dream about a threesome with Jessica Simpson and Beyonce. No, none of that. He dreams about Brian Anderson in CF. KW f***ing adores BA. Why else do you think he would trade 2 CFers within the White Sox organization within 2 months time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had ample opps to prove himself -come on all you man crushers, he just doesnt have what it takes. What do you call this: July: .313 AVG, .330 OBP August: .296 AVG, .367 OBP I guess the fact that he's a brilliant defender at arguably the most important defensive position outside of pitcher and catcher doesn't mean much either. Philosophically challenged and baseball retarded is a "fun bad" combination. Keep posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 QUOTE(Heads22 @ Sep 6, 2006 -> 12:40 AM) You're just twisting the stats to back up your argument. You know as well as I that person's yearly stats paint a complete picture of their development and where they are. In the case of a rookie, I believe it is better to look at the trends. Is he learning to be a major league player? I think he is. Half a season, three months, isn't insignificant. If Kalapse was grabbing three weeks and only against lefties with bad hair, then I'd be inclined to believe the stats were painting a misleading picture.
