hammerhead johnson Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 4, 2005 -> 07:37 PM) Valentin -- '96(58) -- He's not ours, but there was a Jose Valentin listed at catcher That's Jose's little brother. He changed his name from Jose to Javier probably after he came to the realization that his parents are some serious dumbf***s, a la George Foreman (George named all of his sons George). Either that, or he just wanted to avoid confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitetrain8601 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Pretty good. I thought he was better than Reed, but if I mentioned that I would get flamed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted March 11, 2005 Share Posted March 11, 2005 Yes you would. Ever since that trade, people have been holding on to Jeremy reed's nuts for dear life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 No one really mentions Miquel Olivo in that trade anymore. I always liked him and still wish him and Reed the best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 IMO Olivo's arm ranks in the top 3 among catchers in major league baseball. Maybe even the best now that pudge is off the juice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No -- but he's gonna be one hell of a leadoff hitter/number two up in Seattle. I like Freddy and all, but I can't honestly say that I don't wish Reed still wasn't with the Sox...

GoodAsGould Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Reed is going to really have it good this year too.... hitting after Ichiro and than after you theirs guys like Beltre, Sexson, and Boone..... he going to get some good pitches to hit.

Chisoxfn Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Reed's still a rookie though and he'll have his struggles. He'll be a solid player though. Think Erstad upside wise with obviously a better OBP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Erstad upside wise with obviously a better OBP. Hopefully he doesn't become as injury prone as Erstad is though. He reminds me a lot of a better version of Rusty Greer.

GoodAsGould Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Rusty Greer was pretty good when he is healthy i dont know about that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty seemed to just KILL the Sox. I've never looked up stats on it, but I hated to see that guy come up in a clutch situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
