It's depressing more than anything and thanks to the All-Star game being held in an NL ballpark for the second straight season our best hitter won't even be on the ballot.

BearSox Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I noticed you updated Crede's position to "DL"... is this purely speculation by you, or do you know something no one else does? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on his injury history, the way his back has been acting up this year, his current offensive production, the fact that Fields did not play today and Guillen's comments after the game lead me to believe he's on his way to the DL. That and wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 He's actually been an outstanding LOOGY this year. Lefties are just 4 for 24 against him with one of those hits being double and the other 3 singles. He's also walked 1 while striking out 6. He should really only be used exclusively against lefties seeing as how righties are hitting .324 against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearSox Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I have a question for the curse filter, and I don't know where to put, so I'll put it here. I have a tendency to put *'s over the vowel in like the "f" or "s" word. I just subconsciously do it because on a previous board they made you fix the words manually. Is that bad?

southsider2k5 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Do not do something to circumvent the filter so that the curse word still shows up dispite the filter attempting to not allow it to do so. The filter is there because there are kids reading the site, and people posting from places like their jobs who could get into trouble because of the language.

greg775 Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Serious question. is anybody else worried that a loss tonight coupled with Cleveland's automatic win against the crap Royals has pretty much eliminated the Sox from the division race the first week of June? Are we only playing for a wild card the rest of the way? We knew the division would be tough but to be close to eliminated in June? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearSox Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I just read somewhere that Pierzynski threw his helmet in the direction of the ump after being tossed. If so, I'd expect a suspension coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who is against rebuilding ought to read that sentence repeatedly. We're old and our young prospects aren't very good. Our division rivals are younger and have good prospects. We're just going to get older and worse. It's time to take advantage of our players' value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's time to take advantage of our players' value. It's pretty clear at this point that the Royals are a better team than the Sox. I fully expect the Sox to finish behind KC. Worse than that, KC has a bunch of good young players. Given that the Sox have the worst farm system in baseball, I think the Sox may finish behind the Royals for several years to come. Back in 2005, The Sporting News knew what it was doing when it named Shapiro as the Executive of the Year instead of Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that anyone assumes or believes that is absolutely ridiculous. The Sox have a pretty good amount of pitching in the minors - albeit, all of it is below AAA - but they have talented arms in the minors. Add to it 2 young OFers in AAA that will very likely be starters at some point within the next 5 years in the majors, as well as Carter, Getz, Hernandez/Lucy, Cunningham, and Fields (even if he is in the majors right now) and I don't think there's any way you can argue that the minor league system is the worst in baseball. I've heard some people mention Washington as the worst. That would be a team that is in a terrible situation, though their major league roster is relatively young.

Yeah the assumption around here that we have the worst farm system in the game is something even a negative fatalist like myself can't agree with. We are slightly below average in terms of a farm system, like around 20 out of the 30 teams or so. Our pitching is actually pretty damn good, but we just lack position prospects, which could doom us for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
