December 10, 200421 yr Nothing totally news worthy out of this. Known Dye since he was with Atlanta, loves the kid (his words not mine), feels he will do well here. Uribe was his best offensive and defensive middle infielder last year. Willie still very inconsistent. Shingo is the closer. Says he met with JR and Kenny and told them what he feels they need, and that Kenny is going to work on it. Knows they need another starter and hopefully they'll get on before the meeting ends. That was about it.
December 10, 200421 yr Author How many times did Ozzie use the phrase, "This kid"? I heard once with Dye, and I think once with Uribe.
December 10, 200421 yr Wow, I'm a little suprised Ozzie just came out and said "we need another starter." I mean I'm glad he's not towing the company line, but that will put a lot of pressure on KW
December 10, 200421 yr How many times did Ozzie use the phrase, "This kid"? Or start every sentence with "I tell you wat,"
December 10, 200421 yr Or start every sentence with "I tell you wat," "I tell you whaa, dis kid he throw da ball weel well."
December 10, 200421 yr "I tell you whaa, dis kid he throw da ball weel well." LOL Whenever he's getting interviewed or at a press conference I always laugh and count how many times he says "I tell ya whaa man." Just watch it in any of his interviews, pregame or whatever, before every anwser it's "I tell ya whaa man."
December 10, 200421 yr I just want him to be asked about Bobby Cox some more to see if he refers to him as "a kid" Gotta love the Oz.
December 10, 200421 yr Ozzies tells the danm truth and he knows grilli wont cut it. I expect a trade so 5th spot will be taking care over.
December 11, 200421 yr The more I hear Ozzie, the more I think Willie Harris won't be on this ballclub.
December 11, 200421 yr The more I hear Ozzie, the more I think Willie Harris won't be on this ballclub. He's just lighting a fire under his butt. Interesting to see how Ozzie handles different people, what he says about Harris is the plain truth -he's an all-star one day and disappears the next - and we'll all see together if Ozzie's approach works. Baseball! always something to watch everyday.
December 11, 200421 yr Author As for Harris, Ozzie said Willie's inconsistent play is what led them to trading for Alomar, both years.
December 11, 200421 yr The more I hear Ozzie, the more I think Willie Harris won't be on this ballclub. I hope you're right
December 11, 200421 yr Wow, I'm a little suprised Ozzie just came out and said "we need another starter." It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize the Sox need a 5th starter..... have needed one for 2 seasons now. '03 was truly pathetic everyday a 5th starter took the mound.
December 11, 200421 yr The more I hear Ozzie, the more I think Willie Harris won't be on this ballclub. Way to go oz, get this bumb off the team, traded for something worthy. Ozzie says what he thinks and doesnt bulls*** people, thats what i like about him although i disagree with him on a lot of things
