Are you sure the vision wasn't Neal Cotts..?

I'd rather see Cotts get the 5th spot, but we can't get what we want.. I don't have much confidence in Danny [hit my home run pitches] Wrong eigher. (that and I never really liked him or Rauch ) But we'll see what he does in his first couple starts first then we can see if he's still the answer.

I'd do it but eigher just giving up Rauch or Stewart, not both. I'm sure Coop could really help Benson find that hidden potential that he knows he has and perform better. Hell, I'd give up Danny Wrong straight up for Benson.

Gload is going to be a huge boost off the bench this year. Hopefully he can come up with the key hits as well when we really need him. Sweeney, which I believe, can actually hold his own in the big leagues now. The guy has done nothing but cream the ball. The sox will develop him more, but he has shown now that he can hit big league pitching.

That is saying something especially from Bonds who has an unbelievable eye at the plate. I'm sure Shingo will be nasty this year.

Amen! And what's so impressive about them is that they are all left-handed!! That's a triple combo of good hitters for many years in the sox organization.

I'm sure Neal will be up in the bigs by this year, if something happens with one of our starters.

Agreed.

Well.. the Bulls had a shot at the playoffs but now they don't after they let their best player go..

I go to Washington H.S. now but formerly went to Bishop Noll. Lets see... Do you know Alex Alcantar, Miguel Ramirez or Cindy Ramirez? Dunno if they still go there or not but I graduated with them.

Cotts Knows He Has What It Takes. Sounds like a confident man who will have a great future..

Damn that scared me. I thought when I first read this topic, is that he was done for the season. This is bad for Joe but at least he'll be getting more at-bats in Charlotte.

Glover is no longer in this organization, and I would kill myself if Adkins made it.

Just flip-flop Garland and Shoey and that's basically it.

Hawk was saying how talented our outfielders are gonna be in the near future with Reed, Anderson, and Sweeney. Kenny was just talking about them individually like Reed hitting .400 in AA, and Anderson with a plus arm and bat, and Sweeney clobering the ball, and impressing people that he should make the team at only 19. (which of course won't happen) We are pretty stacked in the future with loaded talent with these guys and getting our pitching to improvement as well.

f*** that. Were still waiting for the season to start for the sox. You think anyone would wait till April 1st to pull jokes?

They do kinda look like from the sideburns and fatial hair. But everything else in different including skin color. Ozzies' alittle darker than Esty.

Good win by the sox. We didn't get much hits, but the small ball is what got the win. We will see plenty of this in the Ozzie era which i'm excited for!

Someone else has to do PBP. I have to get off the comp. for a sec. but I'll still watch the game. Until then bye and go sox!!

I forgot to add that Maggs stole 2nd then went to 3rd on wild throw.

I'll do PBP. Bottom of the 2nd 0-0 Magglio Ordonez: Walks (dreaded leadoff walk.) Ross Gload: Flies out to Left (1 out.) Joe Crede: Strikes out (2 outs) Sandy Alomar: RBI single (YESSSS!!) Micheal Rivera: little ground ball to pitcher. (3 outs) Top of the 3rd 1-1 tie.

They are talking to Ozzie now.

First hit in the game.

At least Willie's gotten a couple hits geez.
