southsideirish71 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 07:31 PM) If we lose tonight at home against KC on the 4th, heads should finally roll. They won't. White sox baseball is always about one simple fact that tomorrow is always there. They don't have any sense of urgency. Ozzie has stated that Pierre could go 0-100 and he would play everyday. So that should tell you everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what counts, yes rios has sucked but Lexi hadn't been far behind 25 MLB GM's would claim Alexei Ramirez were he to be placed on waivers. 0 would claim Alex Rios.

chw42 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 4, 2011 -> 07:33 PM) Francouer woulda been a way better addition than Dunn for 1/15th the cost. Francouer's a stubborn douche who will never be a great player until he listens to the criticism people hand out to him. He's not really good at anything, but has the talent to be a very very good hitter. I think when he looks back on his career 15-20 years from now, he'll regret that he didn't listen to the people who told him to take more pitches and be more patient. Everything you say about Dunn is pretty much hindsight. Because nobody really complained about signing him. And the people that did complain never saw this coming either.

The Sir Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Random question: what happened to Tyler Flowers? I saw a list of our top prospects the other day and he wasn't even on it. Has he been written off? Also, if Pierre got 5 ABs every game for 20 games, I don't care if he doesn't get a hit. That many ABs means someone is getting hits, and we're probably scoring more than we are now. I'll take it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
