September 2, 200421 yr These Guys are perfect for next year... Rowand Burke Davis Gload They need to keep these guys, add a couple ozzieball players for next year via free agents/trading of non-grinders, then a starter and a bullpen guy the Sox should be set.
September 2, 200421 yr I'd add Willie to that list too. It may not show it in his average, but he has had a lot of good at bats this year, working them to 3-2, then lacing one to left field. He just needs to learn how to steal a base.

Rowand Burke Davis Gload They need to keep these guys, add a couple ozzieball players for next year via free agents/trading of non-grinders, then a starter and a bullpen guy the Sox should be set. Put Frank on that list too. I know you may not consider him a "grinder," but we won a lot of games when he was here and not so much when he wasn't.
September 2, 200421 yr Author IMO, Uribe's a grinder. Goes all out for every play and do the little things. People should add to the list. I knew i'd miss people...cuz know that i think about it, uribe..Thomas..and Harris can be considered grinders. Crede, Valentin, Borchard and a few of the pitchers are hardly considered grinders.
September 2, 200421 yr Damn, That's some real fine animation there blacksox8. We will have Frank back and I'd add him to the list for the same reason stated. I wouldn't be unhappy if Harris came back either. I'd also give Uribe another year.

September 2, 200421 yr add Rowand, come on! These Guys are perfect for next year... Rowand Burke Davis Gload
September 2, 200421 yr Author Catalanatto, Polanco, Renteria...who else could the sox pick up that are considered grinders in free agency?
September 2, 200421 yr These Guys are perfect for next year... Rowand Burke Davis Gload fine i'm dumb...
September 2, 200421 yr Catalanatto, Polanco, Renteria...who else could the sox pick up that are considered grinders in free agency? Visquel..
September 2, 200421 yr Catalanatto, Polanco, Renteria...who else could the sox pick up that are considered grinders in free agency? Polanco is not a free agent.
September 2, 200421 yr Author Polanco is not a free agent. They need to keep these guys, add a couple ozzieball players for next year via free agents/trading of non-grinders, then a starter and a bullpen guy the Sox should be set. Yeah, but they can still trade for someone like him...if not for him. I think I said that in my first post.
September 2, 200421 yr Yeah, but they can still trade for someone like him...if not for him. I think I said that in my first post. Well when you mentioned catalanatto and renteria which are both free agents, along with polanco... followed by who else could the sox pick up that are considered grinders in free agency? I just thought you thought he was a free agent.
September 2, 200421 yr Polanco is not a free agent. I think Polanco is a FA. Prob. why he was mentioned in deadline trades.
September 2, 200421 yr I think Polanco is a FA. Prob. why he was mentioned in deadline trades. I think some1 else will probably sign him to be a starter, a guy like Craig Counsell would be a perfect pick-up though.
September 2, 200421 yr I think some1 else will probably sign him to be a starter, a guy like Craig Counsell would be a perfect pick-up though. I think Polanco would be a decent Ozzie type player. Jim H has me convinced Willie won't be around for 2005. Though Polanco doesn't have the speed numbers the sox should be looking for. Isn't counsell like 80 yrs old though?
September 2, 200421 yr Polanco would definitely be a good pick up. He's a gamer ... or should I say grinder?
September 2, 200421 yr I'm still pretty certain Willie will be here next year. It's just a hunch I guess.
