MurcieOne Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 Thats right soxfans, our season is over! We finished 81-81 2nd place, not exactly where we were planning was it? I'd like to start a thread of final thoughts for this season, thoughts on the future, and other thoughts you might have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 My final thoughts in terms of grades. Lofton - D. What a joke he was. Ray Ray - D. What a joke he was. Have fun winning the World Series now that you are trying, Ray Ray. Alomar- D. I have no doubt he tried, but he stunk. Royce - D. His attitude sucked, but he could field. Around the diamond Paulie - A. Great year. Harris - C, definitely has potential, but can he hit? Jimenez - B. Nice job, I'd say. Jose V - B- He did drive in some runs. Graff- B. Nice utility man when healthy. Crede- A minus. Did a great job. Olivo - dunno, you tell me, didn't see enough games, but I like him. How bout B. Mark Johnson - C-. Disappointing. Josh P - C. Carlos Lee - B-. Nice finish to season. Was he better on Defense this year? Rowand - B. Is he a good enough hitter to play every day? I like the fact we won with him in there. Maggs - A plus. One of bestplayers in league. Liefer- D-plus. Didn't do much, did he? Frank - C plus. Decent numbers, clueless first half of season. Joe B - incomplete. Garland - B plus. For his age, he had a great year. Wright - B plus. For his age, he had a good year. Mark B - A plus. Amazing. Foulke - C minus. Ritchie - F. Really killed us early, all season as a matter of fact. Biddle, Glover - ? Middle relievers at best? Osuna and the rest of th erelievers B. Comments? Manuel - D plus. KW - F. Jerry Reinsdork - F.

I agree with everything except for Kw, I think he deserves a C. He got us Marte who was our best pitcher. Also acquired Diaz who should pitch for this team someday. Team is also in goo shape for next year. Good post gregory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted September 30, 2002 Share Posted September 30, 2002 Thanks. I'd love to see everybody's grades. It's sad the season is over. Baseball is the best sport despite the problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MurcieOne Posted September 30, 2002 Author Share Posted September 30, 2002 My Grades Lofton - D+ Started like a bat outta hell Ray Ray - D+. still batted 300 for us Alomar- C. I think he did what we asked of him. Royce - C If we rely on our 9th hole hitter for offense, we have problems. He was brought here for defense and he did that well. Still hated him though smug bastard. Around the diamond Paulie - A. Great year. Harris - D, I wanna see more outta this kid. he is better than what he's shown Jimenez - B+. very nice almost secured 2nd base for next year Jose V - B yet another solid season. Graff- looked ok. Crede- A. I love watching him play Olivo -C. Olivo played ok Mark Johnson - D- This guy sucks Josh P. D didn't impress me Carlos Lee - C+ Played under his potential again, When is the breakout season coming? Worked on his D, and it showed alittle. Rowand - B. Robocop, badass I love him Maggs - A+ This guy is amazing. set career power numbers. A true star. Liefer- C- looked like he could have broken out if he had more time Frank - C plus. numbers were there, but felt like he struggled alot. Joe B - incomplete. Garland - C+ I wanna see Jon do better, I like this guy sooooooo much that when he struggled at times it really pissed me off. Good season, should and I think will be better next year. Wright - B. Although he finished well, I think if he starts off slow he won't be starting for long. Mark B - A plus. Amazing. Ritchie - F. This f***o needs to go win back the respect of his fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delben91 Posted October 1, 2002 Share Posted October 1, 2002 Here we go..... Around the diamond Paulie - A. Consistent as hell, on a team where most weren't Harris - C- - The guy has the talent, but will he put it together? Jimenez - B- - Impressive finishing the season, let's see him do it again Jose V - C+ - Produced in the clutch Graff- A - Top grade because he knew his role and filled it perfectly Crede- B+ - Would be higher, but the club kept him in Charlotte too long...I love this guy Olivo - never saw him play, no grade Mark Johnson - C- - Steadiest catcher we have defensively until Olivo takes over. Josh P - D+ - Wasn't a fan before this season, he didn't make me one after it either. Carlos Lee - B- - Really came on strong late, let's hope he brings it back next year. Rowand - C+ - Played his role well, don't know if starting is in his future though Maggs - A+ - Nuff said Liefer- C- - Didn't play a ton, didn't always produce when he did play. Frank - C+ - I still think he's got it, bring him back, please. Joe B - didn't see him play enough, no grade Garland - B - He'll be a star, just watch Wright - C+ - Inconsistent, but looked damn good when he was on. Mark B - A - Holy s***, uncanny. Foulke - B- - Recovered the true Keith around mid-season. Ritchie - F - But I think there's a .500 pitcher buried in there someplace Glover + Biddle - Give Rock the starting spot, or better yet, give it to Rauch.
