I like Hawk and DJ. I never cared much for Wimpy. Hawk adds excitement to the games.

I'm not going to call for a coach (or manager) to to be fired after losing the first 2 games. Give him a little time before we run him out of town.

The only way I see Ozzie getting fired is if we have a really bad season.

I don't have much confidence in the 15 day window either. KW won't be letting them all get away.

This is not the way to start the season.

I hope he is back in May. Other wise we would probably end up with Alomar again.

Buehrle Throwing 90? I hope that keeps up into the regular season.

I look for the Sox to be in a dead heat with Detroit for 3rd place. I look for the Tigers to take tumble this season. Hopefully we will be able to contend for the divison title but I don't see it happening.

I also say 3rd place.

I hope that is true, get it done KW!!

I knew it was a matter time before he was gone and some one picked him up. Good luck Sean.

I will believe that rumor being true when I see it.

If Rowand was coming back, I think a deal would have been done by now.

Floyd is the 5th starter now IMO.

In the world of Pete Rose anything could happen.

I would also go with El Duque in game 3 of the ALDS. Your blog is excellent, I have it saved to my favorites.

This Uribe trail is the craziest thing I have ever seen in my life.

I am not surprised about Carlos Vasquez being sent down. I expected that one.

Nice jersies but not worth $250.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 11, 2007 -> 06:39 PM) Mack is not bad in LF. He's much better than Pods, in fact he's a better baseball player than Pods. If anyone should be traded it should be Pods, but you won't get anything for him unless he's a throw in. I think Erstad is eventually going to get hurt, and Pods is going to struggle. I think if the Sox rid themselves of Mack they would be pining for him around June15th. Its not Mack's fault Ozzie kept throwing him somewhere he should not have been. He had about as much business playing CF as Thome or Konerko. You got it exactly right. I would also trade Pods if anybody, actually there were times last season when I would have started Mack.

With the ERA Vasquez has (16.88) I can see why the Cubs got rid of him.

If Rowand returns to the Sox, it would depend who we would give him before I would bring him back.

If this wasn't spring training, I'd be a little concerned right now.

QUOTE(mreye @ Mar 9, 2007 -> 06:55 AM) And this is rumor number 1,247 about Rowand coming back. Let it go, people. I'll believe Rowand coming back when I see it. I don't believe a word of it.

I don't think Dye will disappoint us. Thome isn't getting any younger but he still has some homers left in him. Hopefully Buehrle will play like he did in 2005. As for Anderson I don't see any change in him, I'm optimistic on Erstad.
