The last time he faced pro pitching. I think he may be going to Soxfest. Maybe his "fee" is doing him this solid. I expect him to be cut in AZ.

And it is very little hand waving at that. If it was Brian Smith nobody would care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I wonder what his deal was as a pitcher. Never even threw 10 IP in a minor league season, even though he didn't do badly in his limited innings each time. Also weird that he's been out of the game for several years and is still making this comeback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like every other Sox fan has some story of seeing Anderson out and him being either drunk or a douchebag. Randy Wells syndrome?

Chisoxfn Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 If Anderson came into the majors in this era (vs. when he did), I think people would value him much differently. The guy was an absolutely incredible defensive centerfielder who got jacked around like crazy by one Ozzie Guillen. Supposedly he's been working out hard and is coming in with a fantastic attitude. If he can play D and demonstrate some improvements at the plate, great, if not, no harm no foul. I can think of a lot of guys who had a lot less talent than BA.

BA was very into the outer trimmings of being a pro athlete. giving tickets away to the right female fans etc Edited January 14, 2015 by Jose Paniagua Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
