caulfield12 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 (edited) “Let me explain to the idiots out there, the geniuses,’’ Guillen said. “They say I don’t bench Rios, but the only player I benched because he didn’t hustle, it was Rios, for two days, OK? “Tell these people out there, they think they know baseball more than I do, then send me the lineup that was better without Rios in [it]. Is Rios not playing well? Of course he’s not. He’s brutal everywhere.’’ But he was still Guillen’s best option in center field on the days he played, Guillen said. Pointing out that he has benched Rios for not hustling, Guillen also strongly objected to the notion that he favors Latino players. “You know how many Latino players I got rid of here?’’ he said. “A lot” was the answer. “Thank you, OK!’’ Guillen said. ‘‘Every time the people talk about it . . . it’s a bunch of crap." I hope he's not counting the likes of Luis Terrero and Jhonny Nunez. Let's see, did he get rid of Uribe? I guess. Was that a mistake, probably. Is Ozzie the GM now too, apparently. Cabrera? Yes. Smart move? Money-wise, but O-Cab has won almost everywhere he's gone and we haven't the last three seasons. Freddy Garcia? Colon? I guess...but there were lots of other extenuating circumstances involved. Contreras, I don't think you could say Ozzie "got rid" of him. Just off the top of my head. I'm sure there a lot of more examples that posters will recall. Magglio Ordonez and C-Lee? Yeah, Ozzie "got rid" of them, lol. Jose Valentin, too. Luis Vizcaino? Ozuna? El Duque? Javy, well....you forced the hand of KW on that one and we've gotten back a utility player and a catcher who can't hit or catch very well.

It's not our fault and it has nothing to do with our approach at the plate or our hitting coach. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap...

I can't wait for a truly empty stadium to be featured and laughed at on Sportscenter in f***ing September. I feel bad for Paul Konerko and Mark Buehrle. F*ck everyone else, but those two are class acts and shouldn't be stuck with the rest of these bums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Who's going to this year's Picnic in the Park event where you can play a lazy game of frisbee with Alex Rios, and I mean lazy, or you can watch Adam Dunn strike out 4 times in a game of whiffle ball?

caulfield12 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) http://thebeanball.wordpress.com/2011/08/0...-michael-morse/ Lillibridge the next Michael Morse? I think not. If they do plan to go into next season with Lillibridge/DeAza, Viciedo and Rios as the new outfield...well, I don't know what to say. But 2012 would suck. At least the better the stats that Quentin ends up with, the easier it will be for KW to deal him....IF IF IF he can stay healthy the final 2 months of the season.
