After a year of struggles and inconsistency the Sox were back in the hunt of the al Central. But a road trip to Minnesota in September and 8 loses to the lowly Detroit Tigers hurt this team and eventually the Sox finished second again 86-76, 4 games behind the Minnesota Twins. Frank Thomas had another good season hitting .265 but returning to his custom power numbers hitting 42 homers and driving in 105 runs. Carlos Lee had a breakout season and hit .291 and had carrer highs in homers (31) and RBI’s (113). Magglio Ordoñez (.317) was the one to struggle some with the power numbers as for the first time in 5 years he didn’t hit 30 homers or drive in 100 runs falling short hitting 29 homers and driving in 99. Joe Crede (.261) was solid hitting 19 homers and driving in 75. Another one who struggled was Paul Konerko hitting .237 hitting 18 homers and driving only 65 runs. Jose Valentin (.237) had a good power season hitting 28 homers. Carl Everett was acquired from Texas and helped down the stretch hitting .301 while smacking 10 homers and driving in 41 in 73 games for the Sox. On the Mound Esteban Loaiza who was signed to a minor league deal had the finest season of his carrer leading the team in wins with 21, was third in the league in ERA (2.90) and led the league in strikeouts (207), Bartolo Colon went 15-13 and was second on the staff in k’s with 173. Lefty Mark Buherle struggled in the first months but after starting 1-8 turned it around and finished 14-14. Young Jon Garland went 12-13. In the bullpen veteran Tom Gordon had 12 saves and lefty Damaso Marte was dominant with a 1.58 ERA had 11. A trade for hard throwing closer Billy Koch failed and Koch only had 11 saves (after saving 44 and wining 11 with Oakland the year before) and eventually lost his job as closer. After the season Manager Jerry Manuel was fired and replaced by a familiar face in former shortstop Ozzie Guillen.

:headshake Hell let's get Todd " Our ticket to winning the world series " Ritchie back in town!

And Dimitri Young is a solid Firstbaseman??

Ohhh gooodddyyyy a late game!

He'll most likely pass through waivers. Unless some team is desperate.

No, Not if he's waived or released. The Sox would pay league Minimum if they wanted to and of course he accepts. If i'm wrong then someone may correct me

This Article = Smoke screen Getting teams to overpay that's all. f*** the Yanks :fyou

Maybe or Maybe not he's only 35 and a change in sceanary could help. Plus he would be cheap

Carl Everett is heavy and out of shape. I saw him 3 times last week down here

Read on Rotoworld There is a very good chance that John Olerud will be designated for assignment before tonight's game. There have been no takers for Olerud in trade talks, and the Mariners want to take a look at minor-leauge cult hero Bucky Jacobsen. Olerud, who has been a major disappointment this season hitting just .245 and driving in only 22 runs, could resurface with the Giants. San Francisco tried to acquire him earlier in the season, but Olerud apparently would not agree to waive his no-trade clause to go there. Perhaps he may now feel differently. Of course, the 35-year-old first baseman may choose to retire, something he has allegedly thought about the past few months.
