I agree Getz should be given a shot. He's going to be a big leaguer either with the Sox or somewhere else. I really like his approach at the plate. He doesn't try to do too much and can hit to all fields. He'd be a perfect number 9 hitter right now.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 3, 2008 -> 11:35 AM) Our next call up has to be either Richar or Owens for Russell/Ramirez. Gotta have a lefty off the bench. Richar hasn't even started playing this year. Ramirez, like it or not, is back on Tuesday. I'm saying for a day or two, Fields would be a good choice to give Crede a day off.

Josh Fields isn't in the lineup for Charlotte today. If the Sox don't have to use the bullpoen too much today, I'd like to see if they could swap Russell for Fields tomorrow to give Crede a day off against Halladay. Charlotte is playing in Buffalo, so it would very doable logistically.

Owens and Fields are both in the Charlotte lineup. Adam Russell will be in the pen for these four games.

I agree Tony, but Ozzie has his new favorite. When Ramirez threw out Byrd at home in OKC, it was over.

I think the Giants could use some offense. Trade Crede and Dye to San Fran, and just dump Uribe. And please...PLEASE get Alexei Ramirez out of the outfield. Owens-CF Cabrera-SS Thome-DH Konerko-1B Swisher-LF Quentin-RF Pierzynski-C Fields-3B Ramirez-2B

That Lujan looked good the other day.

It's official...I think... http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws

http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...1,3881764.story Wassermann sent down.

So, ya think Wassermann and Masset both get on the plane to Cleveland?

QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 29, 2008 -> 03:22 PM) That lineup is re-god damn-diculous. Why? It's the last game before the season starts. They'll get a couple AB's and then the replacements come in.

Swisher, CF Uribe, SS Thome, DH Konerko, 1B Dye, RF Pierzynski, C Crede, 3B Quentin, LF Ozuna, 2B

Rain is moving out of Memphis. Game will start on time.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Mar 29, 2008 -> 12:00 PM) Let's just play ball! Weather permitting.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Mar 29, 2008 -> 12:29 PM) yes, he and gavin floyd. If you believe the s*** coming out of Ozzie and Kenny. Which raises a good question: who is in line to take Floyd's place in May when ozzie finally says enough? Mark my words, Gavin Floyd will have a better season than John Danks. 12 wins, 4.50 ERA

I think Wassermann is going to get it. Both are done pitching before opening day, so it just tells me they are trying to trade Masset. Thornton and MacDougal will be able to pitch a couple innings at a time. I also think Wassermann can go a couple innings when needed.

QUOTE(CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Mar 28, 2008 -> 10:21 PM) Can never tell with relievers. Sometimes you catch lightning in a bottle like with Cotts in 05. No love for Hermanson and Politte? There were plenty of career years.

I just looked through the box scores. Since the off day on March 13, Swisher is 4-40 (.100), with 8 walks. Sox win, but I think Carrasco hurt his knee on the final play of the game.

Anyone notice Swisher has been brutal the last couple weeks?

MacDougal actually had a better spring than I expected. I'll reserve ripping him until at least Monday.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 28, 2008 -> 09:27 PM) Hawk on the radio!! Yeah. That was hilarious when he started doing the guy's PBP. Lay off, Hawk!!

Ramirez, RBI single. The Sox are going to have some serious decisions to make. This guy has to play.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 28, 2008 -> 09:20 PM) Heh, looking at the box score, Anderson left his hot play in Az. I haven't bought into the Anderson hype. Quentin is twice the player.

Owens needs to be who he is--4th outfielder, pinch runner. Period.
