Vance Law Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 25, 2007 -> 05:20 PM) A back-up outfielder should be the easiest position in the majors to fill, especially with guys in the minors. Having to play Gonzalez the last few days in LF against a righty makes me cry. Then you, like, cry really easily. And Gonzalez isn't a backup outfielder. He's the backup every position (plays a much better shortstop than Sweeney) since Ozuna went down and Mack got traded. And we are carrying 13 pitchers right now. And Pods and Thome are hurt. And these games don't mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 25, 2007 -> 10:30 PM) I agree with this completely. This off-season is make or break for Williams. He needs to have a dynamite off-season, and he knows it. I just am not ready to completely clean house after 1 terrible year, I just can't justiy that. The problem seems to be that the big four (KW, Ozzie, Walker, and Cooper) are a package deal. I'll be thrilled if KW can put together a good offseason, even if it doesn't translate well next year. I thought all along his offseason prior to this year sucked big time, so it will be fun to see what trade chips he even has now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's too bad. Given the opportunity, I would have urinated on them both. On a seriously note, Bukvich is probably our second best guy out of the pen after Jenks. That is so sad.

He looks as bored as Uribe does every game. That's an excellent reflection on both, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That visual might save the season for me. Jose would need a really long beard and a robe/cloak too. Would it be to tacky if he still wore his White Sox hat? ...and wouldn't Jerry Manual look good in a pharoh costume when Jose says, "Let my people go" ... no I mean ...

That's what you do when you kill a man with a knife; you stab him in the heart. Line shot foul by Erstad. Bleeding on the mic now. That's what happens when you have a knife wound in your heart; you bleed on the mic. Erstad goes down swinging. Feeling faint now.

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I would like to blame the Sox for being too cheap to get a decent broadcaster by resigning Rooney, but this is actually on the Score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 14-2? What a bunch of wimps on the Sox this year. Beaten up by the Big Bad Bosox three games in a row. I hope Buckvich, MacDougal and Thornton are NOT invited to spring training next year. Get rid of all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
