QUOTE (klaus kinski @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 07:16 PM) For me the closest Wise would get to CF is if he was on the crew doing construction on gate 5. i agree

QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 04:15 PM) Bartolo is getting creamed...Rex Hudler even called the Napoli HR, not the Ayber one though lol and he told ozzie the other day when he pitched good that he would be better next time(today) so does this mean he wont start the year on the roster?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 03:30 PM) Eww. esp since he looks dreadful against lefties..blah

QUOTE (daa84 @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 01:57 PM) im very glad owens is gone, but this is horrible news.... the fact that we plan to give the most ABs in the lineup to a 31 year old who has a career .254 obp and is a bad defender is a f***ing joke ^^^ that, thank u. not much more to say,sums it up

well the tigers got josh anderson so we can forget about him

QUOTE (rangercal @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 01:10 PM) I hope wise hits .330 and is a 20/20 player. Will it happen? NO but... I will not root for someone on the Sox to suck. Sounds like you are more of a fan of the names on back of a jersey, instead of the logo on front. u couldnt be more wrong, i have been telling sox fans i know that therye guna be surprised by how fields and getz will play this year. im just realistic and know wise isnt good. theres a reason no one wanted him and he will be garbage this yr. better early rather than ltr so we can address the issue.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 12:39 PM) I hope he doesn't suck, but I know he will. i hope he does right away so ba can play or so they can get someone else. i just hope that when he does suck,they dont keep playing him and we a repeat of last sept.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Mar 30, 2009 -> 12:20 PM) I think Dwayne and Anderson can be a solid platoon in CF for us, but I hope KW is looking to strengthen CF around the deadline. it said wise won the job and will leadoff. god i hope he sux *angry*

QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Mar 28, 2009 -> 02:17 PM) Per MLBTradeRumors, the Braves are in fact looking to deal Josh Anderson and the Sox are named as a possible destination. He shouldn't cost anything all that significant (no top prospects) and would be a much better platoon option than Wise, if it is true that we are looking at a Brian Anderson/Wise platoon. i also saw that the yankees named gardner their cfer. doesnt that make melky expendable? the sox should really try to get him

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Mar 28, 2009 -> 04:33 PM) People, even though he may not live up to his last name, it's "Fields." *shakes fist* lol i apologize,i didnt even notice i did that, i know its fields lol

ive only seen field play 3 times this spring but he hasnt looked that good at 3rd at all

QUOTE (daa84 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 04:08 PM) well he's not exactly wrong...though i think last years team may have been a bit better i think they were better last year. u cant say they upgraded with bradley bcuz they lost derosa who is more durable and was great for them last year,as was kerry wood. and i dont think dempster will be anywhere near as good. oh and they actually managed to keep rich harden healthy last year,we'll c if that lasts.

santo said its the best cubs team hes seen in the last 20 yrs lol and they say hawk is a homer. im sure santo said the same last year and the yr befor lol

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 03:33 PM) Its not dead arm, its way too early. He's probably just having a s***ty game, unless he's hurt. Richard was inconsistent last season too, from outing to outing. He's still adjusting. I hope he stays in the pen until he can consistently keep pitches down, and consistently deliver his breakers without hanging them. how about leaving him in aaa?lol

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 12:36 PM) I'm gonna go with 97 who are we trading for?lol

QUOTE (watchtower41 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 12:24 PM) Anybody know what our over/under number is in Vegas? i believe its 80, a friend of mine put 1000 down in vegas that theyll win over 80 games

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 12:14 PM) That. The joke that Jerry Owens is needs to die. i still find it comical that he just focused on his baserunning in the offseaon instead of hitting. and hes been bad on the base paths , to top it off!lol too bad we cant say bye to wise too

teams must be asking for a ton,or the sox must have no money at all or no one wants to trade their cfers i think bcuz i dont think the white sox r that stupid and think that one of them can be an everydat cfer lol

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Mar 25, 2009 -> 04:05 PM) no spank you to either of them. ill take anyone besides what we have lol i dont really see the yanks trading melky though. hes batting .322 with a .388 obp right now too. like someone said,theyll want poreda or something

why did ozzies hat have 'opd' on it?

theres no reason for lilli to be on the team. its pretty clear he should go to aaa and get consistent playing time. he really needs to work on his hitting and thats not going to happen coming off the bench

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Mar 23, 2009 -> 06:58 PM) Welcome to Soxtalk, How many times do we have to learn the lesson about putting a not so good defensive guy out in CF. Wise was not a good defensive LF, I dont see how that gets better when he moves to CF. He fell apart not when he was put in the 1 hole, its when he was given more playing time. Wise is a 4th OF, and is not a starter. When bench players become starters they sometimes get exposed. Thats what happened to Mr. Wise. As a role player, he is okay. That^^^^. Great post,completley true and exactly what i think.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 22, 2009 -> 08:49 PM) It's amazing how he did nothing to upgrade the CF/leadoff position or the back-up catching position. Like you said, he basically did the near impossible this offseason. im still trying to figure that out. its not like there werent options out there. were they great? probly not but id still take crisp,taveras, etc over them

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 22, 2009 -> 01:56 PM) He's just as much of a leadoff hitter as Dewayne Wise, perhaps it's a matter of equality since Wise is the frontrunner for the leadoff job vs righties. cowley said right now on monsters in the morning that he likes wise over owens bcuz that when it was crunch time and the games really matterd, he stepped up. really? i dont recall seeing that in sept and the last week lol
