elrockinMT Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 QUOTE (tommy @ Sep 29, 2009 -> 10:20 PM) There is an article on the official website, the youngsters will be seeing most of the playing time from now on. Not sure why everyone is surprised, I doubt it has anything to do with the 'college football incident' Josh Fields is no youngster to the Sox. But, if tbey want to play him that isn't an issue except Ozzie mentioned putting the best pitchers and I am assuming hitters out there against the Tigers this coming weekend, if the games mean something. When it was metnioned that Fields had a flaw in his swing I was going to agree and say that it was missing the ball with his bat or vice versa He showed promise for half aseason awhile back and folks were praising him as the next Babe Ruth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Sep 29, 2009 -> 04:44 PM) It's not as if Fields is taking playing time away from some hot 1B prospect. They are hoping he does well, which might increase his trade value (which currently sits at next to nothing) ever so slightly. My arguement is to stop Wise from playing. Put Fields in the OF, let Nix and Getz gets more AB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 29, 2009 -> 03:26 PM) I still think Fields is one mechanical change away from being a good hitter. He just seems unable to change that one thing, for whatever reason. I can't remember the last time I saw a hitter struggle where you could clearly see one, specific, mechanical thing, that is so obviously causing them a problem, and yet the player can't adjust. I agree on Wise and Lillibridge though, and Fields won't be with the org in 2010 either I'm fairly certain. Fields is SOOO long on his swing. Unless he fixes that, he is a classic AAAA guy.

kitekrazy Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Sep 29, 2009 -> 03:27 PM) Josh Fields has said that’d he be willing to play 3b, 1b, or the OF as long as it allowed him to play everyday. If I’m the White Sox I’m sticking him in LF for the next series, and assuming he doesn’t make an ass of himself, he might even raise some of his value. He still can't catch a baseball.

In the end, if Uribe is on the team Beckham isn't option 1 to replace Fields at 3rd.
