Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Tiny blurb in today's SunTimes said that Ozzie doesn't expect Frank to be ready before June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Who knows, but it wouldn't surprise me. It's a difficult injury to overcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Hopefully, Frank won't be Grant Hill, or Bill Walton. Foot and ankle injuries are difficult to heal, especially when you are as huge as Frank. The healing process seems to be more unpredictable than injuries to other parts of the body. Wouldn't surprise me if he was ready on opening day, and it wouldn't surprise me if he is out the entire season, and has played his last game for the Sox.

Old Socks Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 The trouble is that Frank's successor at DH, Carl Everett, weighs as much as Frank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 This pisses me off. Yeah, he's our HOF player...but why have we been paying him all this money when we could have gotten a lot younger marquee players...I'm lost But anyway, if that happens would that hurt our season majorly?

GoodAsGould Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 idonno at frank's age i know Carl is only like 3 or 4 years younger and he wont put up an OBP close to franks but he can run a little faster and if he is in shape can hit the ball well and its always nice to have a switch hitter in the lineup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His contract gave him option years that he took. He could have been a free agent a couple years ago but took his option instead. He probably wouldn't accept a trade anywhere either. I personally couldn't imagine Thomas in another uniform. It would be as bad as seeing Jordan with a Wizards jersey on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
