Go sox Let us know your thoughts and observations. Is Tampa considering a replacement for that stadium do you know? I would wonder since Miami is building a new one to keep the Marlins.

The Hawk usually talks about it when they're down there, I guess they have a good design and location in a better place, but still looking for funding... Cryptvill, that's about right?

soxfan3530 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Big series. Let's at least get a split. GO SOX! Oh and GO HAWKS!!! Edited April 16, 2009 by soxfan3530 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanOfCorn Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I don't think we, as Sox fans should be complaining about that stadium...if it weren't for former Governor Big Jim Thompson...it would be OUR stadium. Ick. Oh...and GO SOX AND HAWKS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Nieman got hit around last week by the O's. He tends to leave a 90 MPH Two-seamer high in the zone, which means we should do well, but he's also an inexperienced young pitch who we've never seen before, which means we should suck.

Cryptvill, that's about right? Yeah, I honestly don't know to much about it, but from what I saw about the possible new stadium : It looks amazing, to have a stadium like that would be awesome. 1. Itd be in the open air, I cant tell you how much I miss going to a normal baseball game outside a dome (MLB). I've been to a good 40-60 rays games over the years, and dome baseball is kool and all, but cant replace a good day. The stadium was said to have like, a 'devil ray' aquarium built into it or something of that nature, man, it was just flat out amazing from what I remember. I hope they get it going, but I think it has something to do with laws/funding. EDIT: heading out nwo to catch white sox batting practice, peace all!

Princess Dye Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Owens has hit .286 against Nieman albeit in 7 ABs. I wonder if Ozzie will play him Thome has faced him once and it did not stay in the park. Edited April 16, 2009 by Princess Dye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hopefully Getz is back, leading off. Put the CF of the day 9th, no matter who it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was down there last year on a staff trip (since i work for the biscuits) and they told us everything is set but they need funding. They are trying to put it in a better location and instead of a dome that want a new kind of retractable roof. Super cool stuff if they get it approved. It had been approved, but once the economy turned bad they had to put it on hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Getz 2B Fields 3B Quentin LF Thome DH Dye RF Konerko 1B Pierzynski C Ramirez SS Anderson CF Danks P It's funny, this is pretty much the exact lineup we were clamoring for at the end of spring.

Balta1701 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 It would be really nice if Getz could get a couple hits today to stop the panicking. Anderson, ditto. Singles are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkfan Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I like that lineup, Anderson's gotta do some damage tonight so we don't end up paying rowand 14 mil to support the team's energy level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I do actually have to agree with Hawk on that Getz needs to get on top of the ball and get it on the ground so he can use his speed. Way too many pop ups and fly outs for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
