Dick Allen Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 When he gets back how long will it be before he goes down again? The time between injuries with him gets shorter and shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked a long, long way from being ready. Ive got his fragile ass penciled into returning the first week of July and also not being in a sox uniform in 2008.

fathom Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm going to be incredibly pissed off if when he comes back, he shows some of the same issues he's had recovering in the past where he wasn't confident in his jumps/reads. If Pods returns to the lineup, he better be full speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AddisonStSox Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Finish out the season as a professional (both on and off the field) in Chicago, and White Sox fans will wish you the best of luck in the future. Sorry, Scott, but it is time we part ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 (edited) QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 8, 2007 -> 05:04 PM) What a joke. Does Guillen not understand Podsednik has to use his legs in the outfield? He's certaintly not going to DH. He'll be slow regardless of his position in the batting order. Edited May 8, 2007 by Flash Tizzle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 If Pods is not using his legs, he provides absolutely nothing to a major league baseball team. If Ozzie wants him to use his legs less, he ought to just tell him to spend the rest of the season at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeSox Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 8, 2007 -> 05:41 PM) Exactly. He can't play D, can't hit, has no power, has trouble getting on base, and now our manager doesn't want him to use his legs as much, so he has diminished speed. I am having trouble seeing what he actaully brings to the table..... Grinderism! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ozzie wants him to use his legs less, he ought to just tell him to spend the rest of the season at home. Where does he say he is not using his leg.s No one said he is not using his legs - he said less - and then went further by clarifying he will be getting less at bats. He even stated that he wants Pods at the end of the lineup so he has speed at the top and bottom of the order so that tells you he wants Pods to use his speed/legs, just less than he would if he would be leading off because at lead off he would be getting more ABs. JEEZE! Nitpicking little bastards you guys are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably hit in a minor league game or two later this week if everything goes well. Best case scenario is he's back next week sometime.

Capn12 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Man..I know Ozzie has had a man crush on a few players over the years, but he has a full blown hardon for grindErstad. I don't think there is anyway possible he DOESNT get his 600 ABs and 6 mill option, thanks to the mancrush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst case scenario is obviously him coming back too soon and reaggrivating the thing. Thome took 60 swings yesterday. The Sox are penciling him in against the Yankees next Tuesday in Chicago.
