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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.

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.
