winninguglyin83 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 And then there was one -- Paulie, the last connection to 2005. Game Two of the ALCS was the only post-season game I was fortunate to attend. That game was the key to the post-season run -- and A.J. outthinking Josh Paul, Doug Eddings and everybody else was key to winning that game. Thanks for the memories A.J. wish you the best -- except for those six games every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 As much as I hate to see A.J. not retire in a Sox uniform, I feel like this is the best move for the Sox. Thanks, for 2005 A.J. and some of the most memorable games I've ever attended in my life. I'll never forget Game 2 of the ALCS, and that sucker punch you took from Barrett. Really created some great memories with my dad. Good luck in Texas and keep driving those Halo fans crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Should go down as one of the best Sox of all time. Brought it 162 games a year regardless of the team around hi One of KWs best pickups. Ill miss him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 What a 180 for me -- I used to absolutely hate AJ when he was with the Twins. Now I hate to see him go. I look forward to the salute coming his way when the Rangers visit Chicago next season. Here's hoping Tyler Flowers makes it even easier to say so long.

JoshPR Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I appreciate what AJ did for us and his time here, but it was time to move on. Wish the best to AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 It was certainly time to turn the page; however, AJ was our first serviceable catcher at the dish and in the field since forever. He was an instrumental player in our successes in 2005 through last year. I'll never have a bad thing to say about him for all he did for this franchise.

justBLAZE Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 @gordonbeckham As I'm sure everybody has heard, we are going to miss AJ. He has been such a great friend to me over the last 3.5 yrs. One great Southsider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I still don't understand when people say its time to move on from him. Coming off a great year nd we have no replacement to feel confident in. Yeah, great time to move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
