If he is taking at-bats away from JT Snow, then it would seem that Snow would be the one they would be trying to move. I wouldnt mind having Snow backup Konerko. A slick fielding first baseman cannot hurt.

On a side note, Ozuna had a very rough go at third base yesterday. It made me appreciate crede's defense. In the first two innings, Ozuna was thrown out twice, and made two throwing errors. Thats a tough game. Yet he still came out of the game 3/5 with a run scored. Not too bad, but not too good.

QUOTE(quickman @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 12:03 PM) Baseball gods I need some help here for my 77 year old uncle. Last nights game there were two errors which led to Rockies runs in the first and second. Why were those runs earned. In every newspaper and every box score on the net claimed the runs were earned. I need to better understand why. I know there are soem very smart kids out there. So have at it. damn, Hawk explained it too, and I cant remember. Do you remember the situations with the errors? Maybe that would help stimulate my memory.

Plus, during Spring Training there was really only one team that gave BMac problems, and that was Texas. I thought it was unfair that the Sox ran bmac out against a team as hot as Texas, but what are you gonna do? Those guys can hit anything.

I love the topic this was moved under, LOL

QUOTE(thelatinoheat_30 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 11:29 AM) i guess that could be why his fastball wasn't so fast last nite. i also have seen him shaking his arm. i really hope he's healthy and gets back to old form. even w/ cotts pitching good, not so sure i'd want him as the top lefty in the pen. might need to look for another. I also think the radar gun was sketchy. Polittes first couple pitches never reached past 91 MPH, then he threw a 94 MPH fastball, then back down. I dont believe the numbers they put on TV much anyways.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 11:08 AM) He didn't say that Rogo would start over Konerko he said Rogo would serve as Konerko's backup. He just forgot the s at the end of Konerko. observe my edit.

LOL, a 8 million dollar backup. Lets just try it out! What a great plan. Maybe Garcia should go to the bullpen so the Sox can try Gio as the third starter. Its worth a shot! edit: I read that wrong. I still dont agree with the move. But remove above said "smartass-ness"

jack Wilson had an emergency appendectomy in January/february http://pittsburgh.pirates.mlb.com/NASApp/m...t=.jsp&c_id=pit

QUOTE(TheDybber @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 10:28 AM) Don't forget he can also play all the infield spots except for SS. Something happened to Wilson over the offseason. I think he got either a virus, or some sort of surgery that caused him to lose weight and muscle. I dont think it was a sports related injury though.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 10:24 AM) I love this team. Some random Raines related note does anyone else love when he starts running down the line before innings then turns it on right before 1st as if to beat the throw? Raines is awesome. he is a magnet for foul balls too. Hawk and DJ are always laughing at him ducking and falling out of the way.

What can you say, he has raised his BA 80 points in a month. It doesnt get much better than that.

It looked like an argument, but noone looked angry really. Duque just looked like he was trying to stay in the game. Everytime I see shots of the dugout during the game, those guys look like they are having the greatest time with each other. Thats part of what I really love about this team.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 10:14 AM) Now they are suggesting the Sox trade for Jack Wilson and move him to 3rd or put Uribe at 3rd. Silvy is so funny, he is trying so hard to stay true to his cub roots and bash the Sox, but he just cant. He spent 20 minutes today complaining that Ozuna didnt know the count when he got thrown out and Iguchi didnt know how many outs there were the day before when he failed to turn a double play. Now when he compliments them, he is "throwing them bouquets". He also is not sold on Uribe, he talked about it for a few minutes.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 10:12 AM) He is not coming back on today, rescheduled for tomorrow. Maybe he realized he was going to take a PR hit and conveniently drove through a tunnel. What an Ass-half.

What did Farmer say yesterday? It had to have been good if Carmen and Silvy were talking about it.

If anyone listens to this show and interview and hears some good clips, please let me know here. Im at work and cannot listen to the interview. Carmen and Silvy are planning on running the tape of Ed Farmer ripping on Phillips, and asking his response. then they plan on having him detail why he thinks the Sox arent very good. Should be some good stuff. For one time only, I wish i didnt share an office with a hot girl. :banghead

QUOTE(robin_ventura_eternal @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 07:47 AM) i hope the damn padres dont wear those camoflage uniforms. i hate those for some reason. but we need to watch out, the pads are good, they are going to win the nl west, odds are. The Pads are currently in a slump. They hadnt scored in 30 innings at their own park until they finally put 1 up on the Indians last night. I think the pitching rotation and momentum heavily favor the Sox this weekend.

QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) Lets see your opinion you think timos ozzie lovechild so lets see that means ur opinion dont matter to him and ya timos stayin Find the quote that says I think Timo is Ozzies love child, I never said that. i just dont like Timo, I think he is hurting the team.

QUOTE(thelatinoheat_30 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) i dunno why everyone hates on timo. he distracts pitchers(and yes i know he can't run well), has a strong arm, is a team player, one of the few guys that CAN actually bunt(how many times has he had a bunt base-hit w/ the bases loaded?), fundamentally sound on a team w/ out many of these types of players that knows how to play the game right, and he was without a doubt our MOST clutch hitter last year(hit .397 w/ RISP, .412 w/ RISP & 2 OUTS, .444 w/ bases loaded). this year not as good, but it's tough to find your stroke as a role player. he just needs some time, defense is at least average, not his fault ozzie put him @ 1B, but that just shows you he's a team player. and they always show him on tv in the dugout w/ the guys having fun, seems like a lot of his teammates like him, and like they say chemistry is important. having said this, i understand we need another 1B, and he might be the odd man out w/ all our OF's but he is a very good and serviceable player. I swear, everyone who defends Timo does so by saying he is good in the clubhouse and by reminiscing about his very few good moments in a Sox uniform. Look at the stats, the guy blows! I could care less that he has a good time with the rest of the team, when he is in he sucks. bottom line. He hurts the team when he plays.

QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:30 PM) aww thats just too bad. your not ozzie love child sorry I have no idea what that means. Dont bother explaining. I dont care.

QUOTE(chisox2334 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:25 PM) Everyone can complain all they want him gone but hes staying so deal with it. Im dealing with it by complaining. So you deal with that.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:55 PM) Hey, I'm just repeating what Farmer told me. thats your first mistake
