hi8is Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Any update on his status after the play today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 AJ called it a tweak and thinks he can play tomorrow. He wont, but he should be back Monday. I'm not overly concerned anyway as Castro is the better player at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Knowing Ozzie, he won't play today at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 That was an awkward ending at 3B for AJ last night. Glad it is only a tweak casue it could have gone real bad too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 stupid half-slide aside, AJ is a tough MFer. He takes a beating out there and rarely goes out for injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He takes a beating out there and rarely goes out for injury I have no doubt that he could play today. I'd bet money this is Ozzie's doing.

I'm not overly concerned anyway as Castro is the better player at the moment. TBolt, what do you mean "better player at this moment" Do you mean becasue AJ is hurt? AJP is the better performer. Castro has done his role extremely well, but AJ deserves to be the full-time catcher. He is the one behind the plate and doing his job to make sure the hurlers hurl right and they have. I am glad we have AJP backed up by Castro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sample size is too small to make a definitive conclusion, but at the moment, Castro is hitting better then AJ. I'm not saying this will last, i'm just not worried.

Tbolt usually is a reasonable poster IMO. There's been some posts in game threads coming perilously close to saying AJ's a bum. Should be interesting to see if those make it out of game threads into threads like this. AJ's a stud IMO. Not hitting particularly well this year, tho.

soxrwhite Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Just in case...Who is the backup behind Castro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emergency catcher might be Lillibridge - according the Mark Gonzales. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2010-07...s-ozzie-guillen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilly could probably just stand there and catch instead of crouching. I kill me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
