August 30, 200421 yr I understand all the cheering, but looking at the team, who do they have, and give me a name, who is going to do better than Mike Jackson in that role?
August 30, 200421 yr Yeah I can understand releasing him, but why now? It should have been a long time ago, if you're going to keep him until now, you might as well keep him for the rest of the year.
August 31, 200421 yr This was to open up a roster spot for a minor league call up. Off the top of my head neither Sweeney or Anderson is on the 40 man roster.
August 31, 200421 yr OK, and I will eat crow on this one, I thought they'd keep him the rest of the year because he's a well respected and established veteran, etc. Good for the Sox, he might have been good in the clubhouse but it's more important to find out what some other guys can do. He got his 1000 appearances, passed Gossage on the alltime list, see ya. That's what you get for not plunking Torii Hunter, you Twin Loving SOB
August 31, 200421 yr That's what you get for not plunking Torii Hunter, you Twin Loving SOB Amen brother, I don't care if you're best friends with the guy, he's your arch rival for the time being. Or was an arch rival is the correct term now.
August 31, 200421 yr I understand all the cheering, but looking at the team, who do they have, and give me a name, who is going to do better than Mike Jackson in that role? Frank Thomas -- He has a better arm than thriller.
August 31, 200421 yr How do you say "too little, too late" in Irish? Pour me another whiskey you fekkin' knobs!
August 31, 200421 yr Frank Thomas -- He has a better arm than thriller. That is a diss if i have ever heard one.
August 31, 200421 yr That is a diss if i have ever heard one. That should be qualified. MJ was a good Major league pitcher once. But his time has passed. It's sort of like saying I'm a better hitter than Ted Williams. It's true right now, but for most of time it's false.
August 31, 200421 yr That should be qualified. MJ was a good Major league pitcher once. But his time has passed. It's sort of like saying I'm a better hitter than Ted Williams. It's true right now, but for most of time it's false. I know.
August 31, 200421 yr I'm a better hitter than Ted Williams. It's true right now I dunno Cheat. I still think Ted could hit better than you in the bigs with his head frozen..
August 31, 200421 yr I dunno Cheat. I still think Ted could hit better than you in the bigs with his head frozen.. Sounds like a challenge to me
August 31, 200421 yr WHAT!!! This is totally the White Flag move of 2004!!! Our team needs his "leadership" to take us to last place!
August 31, 200421 yr Hope the Cubs are stupid enough to pick him up. The guy was worse than 6-fingers Alfonseca! Just brutal. He brought absolutely nothing to the table here.
August 31, 200421 yr Hope the Cubs are stupid enough to pick him up. The guy was worse than 6-fingers Alfonseca! Just brutal. He brought absolutely nothing to the table here. Believe it or not, last year he was worse than jackson was this year.
August 31, 200421 yr 4 months after he should of been the white sox release Mike Jackson. Felix Diaz is called up to take his place. Oh how wonderful. They swap out a BP pitcher for a tee ball stand.
