February 20, 200422 yr I'm hoping for positive optimism from him. Something, anything over this Cubbie koolaid they're serving.
February 20, 200422 yr Author Wunsch said Carlos Castillo has slimmed down, and that Koch is in great shape.
February 20, 200422 yr Author Not much more on the interview with Wunsch, but he did say that the players should be more loose under Ozzie. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
February 20, 200422 yr A slim Carlos Castillo? I refuse to believe that. BTW, i hope Koch has his s*** back.
February 20, 200422 yr BTW, i hope Koch has his s*** back. We all do dude. His season this year could make or break the sox as far as games.
February 20, 200422 yr Author A slim Carlos Castillo? I refuse to believe that. BTW, i hope Koch has his s*** back. Swieca asked Wunsch along with Koch being in shape if he had his 5 mph back on his heater? Wunsch said he wasn't sure.
February 20, 200422 yr BTW, i hope Koch has his s*** back. We'll find out in a few weeks. With a limited workload (53 IP) and enough time to work out any problems with his "mechanics," there should be no reason he doesn't show up to Spring Training with his velocity in the mid to upper 90's.
February 20, 200422 yr Author Swieca also said that most of the Sox position players are already in Tucson. Time to get that bonding time in. :
February 20, 200422 yr Wouldn't be great if Frank shows up tomorrow, looks at reporters and says "I'm ready to play some ball". If that happens (it won't) i'll take it as a sign and start saving for playoff tickets.

If that happens (it won't) i'll take it as a sign and start saving for playoff tickets. I would love to see that. I am just as confident (maybe even more) this ST as I was going into last ST..... I think Ozzie Guillen will be such a breath of fresh air... that this team will find it's way. Look for Joe Borchard to have his coming out party as well...... i hope/
February 20, 200422 yr I sorta have this feeling Rowand will kick some ass this spring. Him and Crede could very easily have big breakout seasons. I know some people are down on Aaron, but i feel he has all to tools to become a good CF.

February 20, 200422 yr Is anyone else nervous about Crede?? He is one of my favorite Sox players but he was pretty inconsistent last year. I'm just hoping beyond hope that he gets off to a good start this year, along with the rest of our offense.

I'm just hoping beyond hope that he gets off to a good start this year, along with the rest of our offense. I think Crede is going to be fine. I read somewhere that he said he just need to get out of the funk sooner so he can become consistent. All Im worried about is our starting pitching.
February 20, 200422 yr I'm hoping for positive optimism from him. Something, anything over this Cubbie koolaid they're serving. Is there any other kind of optimism?
February 20, 200422 yr I think Crede is going to be fine. I read somewhere that he said he just need to get out of the funk sooner so he can become consistent. All Im worried about is our starting pitching. I am with you on that.
February 20, 200422 yr Is there any other kind of optimism? I love negative optimism! "DAMMIT, we're gonna have a good year, I can just FEEL it......AWWW CRAP!!!!!"
February 20, 200422 yr I love negative optimism! "DAMMIT, we're gonna have a good year, I can just FEEL it......AWWW CRAP!!!!!" bet reinsdorf says that when he has to then increase the payroll
February 20, 200422 yr I was misquoted. Or you could use the ever-popular "It was taken out of context" - that seems to be the Great Quote Eraser.
February 20, 200422 yr I think Crede is going to be fine. I read somewhere that he said he just need to get out of the funk sooner so he can become consistent. All Im worried about is our starting pitching. Agreed. I don't know where I can find the splits of what he did in the first half vs. the second half, but he was on his game in the second half. I feel he's got something figured out, and he'll put up some solid numbers at 3B this year.
February 21, 200422 yr I love negative optimism! I got negative optimism. I predict the Grubs will lose 90 games. Hell, they might even lose more!
