October 3, 200421 yr Kid Rock. Paris Hilton doesn't do much for me. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
October 3, 200421 yr I WANT TO KNOW WHO THOSE GUYS ARE!!!!!!!!! Hopefully KW knows though, and he'll get rid of these idiots.
October 3, 200421 yr I think he answered about one of the selfish guys with this statement alone... Who's the player that's the "Leon" of this team? Carl Everett.
October 3, 200421 yr I laughed about the Leon question. It doesn't surprise me. What I don't laugh about is that fact that Carl is back next year.
October 3, 200421 yr Ahh...I knew Mark was a good guy, doesnt care about politics...I couldn't agree more
October 3, 200421 yr I was thinking Jose right away. Shall we add some other names? Dare I say Frank?
October 3, 200421 yr I WANT TO KNOW WHO THOSE GUYS ARE!!!!!!!!! Hopefully KW knows though, and he'll get rid of these idiots. com'on you guys started a congrats thread to Jose on his 30th...
October 3, 200421 yr com'on you guys started a congrats thread to Jose on his 30th... I didn't want to trash Jose in the 30th thread, but I would love to see him come back as a backup with a backup salary.
October 3, 200421 yr What does "Leon" mean? It's a guy from beer commercials who only cares about how much money he is gonna make and his own numbers pretty much. He is a multi-sport guy who wants to play in everything where he can get some cash. Pretty funny commercials.
October 3, 200421 yr Buehrle is always on the hot seat.. I still remember his espn interview a while back.. Classic man right there.
October 3, 200421 yr I was thinking Jose right away. Shall we add some other names? Dare I say Frank? Not Frank. He hasn't been around. He's talking about guys playing now. I think C. Lee is probably one of those more concerned about numbers than winning.
October 3, 200421 yr Not Frank. He hasn't been around. He's talking about guys playing now. I think C. Lee is probably one of those more concerned about numbers than winning. If that's the case, good for Carlos. As it's been said, Carlos has definitely just had his best season to date. If it's JV worrying about his numbers, hasta luego....Your numbers aren't worth worrying about this year.
October 3, 200421 yr Not Frank. He hasn't been around. He's talking about guys playing now. I think C. Lee is probably one of those more concerned about numbers than winning. I definately agree. How often do you see him give himself up to move a runner over?

Ozzie and KW have recently said that Lee "isn't a complete player", that he "knows what he needs to work on". this probably has something to do w/ it. Everyone has seen how "into" the game Lee is, laughing and joking in the field. I'll always remember Lee laughing at all the guys running on the field,[the KC game when 4 jokers ran onto the field] even the Sox were losing at the time. He should have wanted to deck the guy for wasting his time. Lee's mind seems everywhere but where it belongs--thinking about how to help his team win

I do remember seeing that now that you mention it. In fact he did it today in the top of the 9th when he grounded out to first and didn't get his 100th RBI. If that was me, I'd be pissed that I just missed my chance, but hey, that's just me. Hey it's my first post here

If that was me, I'd be pissed that I just missed my chance, but hey, that's just me. Hey it's my first post here Welcome to soxtalk! For MB to mention it [even though he was asked] it had to be pretty fresh on his mind. A few guys who were nearing milestones could be who he was talking about [Jose 30hr's, Lee 100 rbi's?] Whoever they are, I don't think they'll be around in '05. Ozzie's managerial career [and KW's career as GM] is tied up w/ the 2005 Sox. If some players care more about their numbers than winning, why keep them around? Esp if KW can trade them for a decent return. And no one on the Sox is worthless [like Billy Koch] or has a Maggs like contract that another team wouldn't or couldn't take on.
October 4, 200421 yr If carlos really desperately wanted that RBI, there was a pretty damn sure way of getting it, in the 7th.... Squeeze play... I know ozzie's never heard of it before, but he had the fastest guy on the team on third, and it didn't have to be a suicide. just put the damn ball in play and willie's gonna score.

That may have made me believe just a tiny bit that ''ozzie ball'' works. It is a damn shame though that he doesn't even know what ''ozzie ball'' is.

But if he hit one of his patented easy flyballs to the OF, Lee would have had his 100th. But Ozzie going out of his way to help a guy who "cares more about his numbers than winning" would send the wrong message. Now if it were Rowand or Uribe then Ozzie probably would have gone out of his way to get them their numbers.
