Harry Chappas Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 The White Sox seem to run the bases poorly and have massive defensive lapses as a weakness every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 I think Flowers blew it there on the Beckham hit. He should have known that was going to be a hit. Probably didn't know where the outfielders were playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 (edited) Snelling has some major league time. Larson. Hughes is a good prospect with the Twins. Â Nice swing by Beckham. I don't what's up with Fields' baserunning this spring...that's 2 silly outs on the basepaths. Now Kroeger. Â Link looked much better his seond inning. Â Wow Josh Fields is really locked in and looking much quicker on fastballs. Edited March 6, 2009 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoesox Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 6, 2009 -> 03:09 PM) Kroeger with a bit of a slipup, but Slayer really wants to make the roster. Â did anyone see cowley's twitter yesterday? Â Beckham gets the start at second base Friday against Team Australia, and will get time at third base. They want to get him more ABs. Â curious why that would be, there's plenty of reasons why but i'm curious as to what their reason is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â 2007 could be great season in White Sox history as it caused them to make some changes.....the grindy love fest ended for Pods and Erstad. If Pods had a decent year that year both Quintin and Beckman may not be here as well as Ramirez. Uribe could have stayed at short and two draft picks would not have been had.......
