And in a bit of irony, when Chip Caray did Sox/Cubs games for FOX, he would normally be paired with DJ.

Shudder!!!! :puke :puke

Stone is a great analyst, and does NOT exhibit any bias at all.

His review of the White Sox was right on the money - he stated that the Sox are a very talented offensive team, that their pitching can and probably WILL be better than a lot of people expect, and that the defense is the area of concern.

( Don't necessarily agree with him on that, though - Lee and Ordonez had very good defensive seasons last year, Rowand can go get it in CF, Crede's solid at 3B, Valentin made fewer errors last year than EITHER of the legendary Yankee shortstops OR King Nomar, Harris or Uribe will pick it pretty well at second, Paulie's no liability at 1B and Olivo is already more than solid behind the plate. So where's the weakness? )

 

It just shows that Stone actually bases his opinions on what he sees, unlike guys like Rick Sutcliffe, who just parrots what the rest of the "crack staff at ESPN" bleat on their broadcasts.

 

As bad as Chimp Caray is, Stone is worth listening to at every opportunity.

Paulie not a what???

 

Konerko is one of the worst fielding 1stbaseman in the Majors

I agree with Critic's statement. Paulie is no liability at first base.
