Balta1701 Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Mar 15, 2008 -> 01:33 PM) I didn't think he was that complimentary. Hawk said what a pleasnt surprise Brian's been. Ozzie said yeah, bout time. We been waiting a long time for this kid. but yeah he's matured and playing well...and something about him playing better when players start passing him up. He making ozzies job hard...or er easy if he keeps playing like this. he has good chance to make the club if he keeps this up. I don't know..I was hoping for a bit more of an endorsement. He doesn't deserve an endorsement yet. There's still 2+ weeks or so remaining in March. He has to keep it up. His endorsement comes if he's in CF on opening day.

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 15, 2008 -> 02:34 PM) I guess Ozzie missed the .308 he hit last spring. You forget, he was trapped in the shadow of GrindErstad last spring, so .400 would have been a slow spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really think the Cubs expect Ichiro, and they going to get something that is far more disappointing like ... Cory Snyder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChrisSamsa Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I like Bourgeois.. seems like a good guy to have on the big team in the next year or two, kind of a second coming of pablo.. but hopefully better in the field, though I haven't seen any other games this spring... so I could be wrong/off due to small sample size.. where'd he come from anyway?

SoxFan1 Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Thome falls to 1-2, comes back to draw the walk. Runners on the corners, 2 out for Paulie. Paulie grounds into the FC. Inning over. 2-2 ballgame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Spencer Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I saw Jason play last year. He mostly played 2nd base, but I did see him play Short and Centerfield. Could be another Pablo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Pratt Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Oh, Kenny. We have depth at every position? How about quality depth? It's fun listening to him talk, honestly -- but that stood out to me as a you can't be serious moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
