quickman Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Kelly Dransfeldt was just called up, hmmm, I wonder why they need another middle infielder? Jim, Jamie burke would have been my choice. Seems strange other than getting someone to put down a bunt or pinch run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I remember that one game where they wanted Dransfeldt to bunt, it was a disaster. Did you read my post in the 5th starter thread, I quoted one of your Quick-isms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MnSoxFan Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 To play SS vs LHs, then they can sit both Willie and Jose vs LHs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Kelly Dransfeldt was just called up, hmmm, I wonder why they need another middle infielder? Is Jose about to be looking at CHicago in the rear view mirror? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 To play SS vs LHs, then they can sit both Willie and Jose vs LHs. I dont have time right now, but can you look up Willies stats against Lefties this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beck72 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Kelly Dransfeldt was just called up, hmmm, I wonder why they need another middle infielder? Because Willie is playing the OF now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 sent you an email are you sure you won't go today? we can hang out at abar if it gets rained out I will be in the gym all afternoon - Today is a drying out day - tomorrow is the Memorial Day parade and then 50 cent hot dogs + Budweiser at the Lantern. Edit: 50 cent hotdogs + Budweiser + Terri + ManHater = YUM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickman Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 If Crede was playing well, it doens't happen. I think Uribe maybe playing more third in the next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelasDaddy0427 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Well with Willie esentially playing CF and Crede in the toliet I can see why they'd want a MIF. That being said Kelly better not start once! :fyou Dransfelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Well with Willie esentially playing CF and Crede in the toliet I can see why they'd want a MIF. That being said Kelly better not start once! :fyou Dransfelt Jeckle what's with you? So he couldnt lay a bunt down, so what. He came up with a HUGE hit in what, that Tampa Bay game in which we came back to win. Lay off of the guy, he's not that talented but he came up here and did some good (Other then booting that ball in Baltimore.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Kelly Dransfeldt was just called up, hmmm, I wonder why they need another middle infielder? I would be all about giving him another shot but we are stacked with infielders right now. Unless he can play 3rd to bench Crede's non-hitting ass then whats the point?

Chisoxfn Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 If Borchard hadn't tweakes his hammy I would guess the Sox would of called him up because he could fill in while Maggs is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Correct me if I'm wrong here, but doesn't Dransfeldt have to clear waivers when he is sent back down again because he is out of options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redandwhite Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 yes, but what team has a spot for him on their roster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Honda Civic Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 yes, but what team has a spot for him on their roster? I can't think of anyone off the top of my head that would need his services, but you never know who will get injured between now and when he is sent back down(june 12) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 I don't think so because he must of already cleared earlier this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandoFan Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 To play SS vs LHs, then they can sit both Willie and Jose vs LHs. That would be a stupid thing to do. Jose is hitting about 280 against LHP since April 7th, with a 350 OBP and 400 Slug. Considering it's the first time hitting lefty-on-lefty, I'll take those numbers even if he has a few things to improve. Defense? All his errors total less runs (2 in NY and 1 in TB) than Kelly Dransfelt's 4-run error in Baltimore alone, and Kelly could dream of Jose's range and baserunning skillz. You sit Jose against lefties and you risk distrupting his timing against righties - and he's your best hitter against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Is Jose about to be looking at CHicago in the rear view mirror? Kelly Dransfeldt got released from the AAA team here in Louisville last year and I find it humorous that he is even getting the chance to play with Chicago. He shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Manos Valentin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence as Manos Valentin. Aboz, I couldn't have said it better myself. Plus KW has said he has no plans to trade any present member of the starting team, which includes Jose Valentin. Maybe they are showcasing Kelly Dransfeldt and Kelly Wunsch as a package? Makes as much sense as this drivil of trading Jose doesn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
