Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 i dont see stewert coming up anytime soon.. he needs alot of work yet......hummel .. well theres no room at the inn for him either........malone maybe but i think almonte will make it up before he does.........i would love to see valentine .. oh wait a minute hes gone... never mind.......f***ing kw strikes again......

mac9001 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Maybe Almonte, but thats about it. I guess Hummel might make a back up role, if Tony G isn't ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 i wondered about almonte, but i kinda like malone... maybe its cuz he has a cool name ...corwin malone ... dunno lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 The only possibility could be Joe Borchard if he has a huge spring. Otherwise Hummel may get a gig temporarily and if their are any injuries someone like Sanders or Stewart could catch on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 hummel over harris? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Hummell is the one who would be best suited from another year in the minors so if it were one or the other Harris would be back up. He can be used as a pinch runner, and can also play in center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hotsoxchick1 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 i know you love hummel jas but face it he aint coming up anytime soon unless someone dies or retires........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 im just hyped for crede to bash his way to prominence and give us a good 3b'er since ventura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Crede could be what makes this the best offense in major leauge history. If Frank rebounds like I think he will and the other big bats continue to develop, we could just out slug everyone to the playoffs. In our division, we don't have to be good, we just have to beat the worse teams in baseball(Minus the Twins) and we'll end up with quite a few wins.

mac9001 Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 If we get someone to get on base in the 1-2 slots we could have the best offense in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by toastydo you guys think there is a legit chance sox will bring in a vet catcher by sp? Yes, Williams seems interested in adding a vet catcher and another outfielder, but catcher is the most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Traded or demoted. Most likely demoted as he's a good 3rd string in case of any injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Originally posted by toastyis frank gonna stay #3? No one knows that for sure. I don't even think JM knows. Most likely, at least to start things of I'd assume they'd do things like they did near the end of last year with Frank back in the lineup, but if Frank has a good spring training, I'd look for him back in the 3 hole.

toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 will alomar come back or will it be somebody like lampkin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 Alomar has been mentioned as has Kreuter and Lampkin and other veterans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 alomar would be alright but kreuter would be good too would we be better off in the cf position with a utility type bench guy to fill in for rowand if not ready or better with like a shinjo?

Chisoxfn Posted December 18, 2002 Share Posted December 18, 2002 To me Shinjo is a utility guy too. I like Palmerio a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toasty Posted December 18, 2002 Author Share Posted December 18, 2002 is palmiero a fa or is that a trade issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
