Soxbadger Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 If the price is right, I think Rollins would complete our offseason. Â Ive always liked him and wanted him on the Sox. Â SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubs Suck23 Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 gene are you crazy he would be a great pickup if we got him.. Sox can move Uribe over to 2B. I hope Rosenthal knows what he is talking about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 We have no need for him? Â I would rather have Rollins starting at short and Uribe at 2b, than Uribe starting at short and Harris starting at 2b. Â Also, it will give us much more flexibility than the addition of Durham, or another 2b, because we would only have 1 SS. This way, we would have 2 SS, 2 2b, and 2 3b, that we can use as we please. Â Not sure why everyone is so hell bent on a 2b, when Uribe can play 2b, and then he would have a natural back up, Harris. Â SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHarris1 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 After looking at his numbers and stuff, this would be awesome! He could play short Juan at 2nd. Gives us more speed and more steals. Rollins hit for a solid average and a decent OBP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxin' Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Jan 9, 2005 -> 03:48 PM) Someone needs to change the title. Yeah god damn it. Rollins was always one of my favorite national league players and I about creamed myself after seeing that title after a hard days work.

Soxbadger Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 lol  Yeah Byrd makes no sense, but any SS or 2b, at this point makes perfect sense for the Sox, especially a guy like Rollins who steals a lot and is a switch hitter.  Our line up for the first time will actually be balanced against RH and LH pitching, I mean we potentially could have as many LH in the line up as RH.  My line up would be (prior to Frank's return)  1. Pod 2. Rollins 3. Rowand (I think he would get a ton of fastballs in front of Konerko in this line up) 4. Konerko 5. Dye 6. Everett (or Gload, I prefer Gload just not that sure the Sox will bench a million dollar player). 7. AJ 8. Uribe 9. Crede  Damn that is a really deep line up.  By the time Frank gets back, we will see what we have, and who should play where. Maybe Rowand needs to be moved down or up, but whatever the case, Rollins would be an outstanding pick up.  SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 looks like a solid option.... .348 obp... 30 sb... .289 avg last year... with damn good power numbers... 43 doubles 12 triples 14 home runs  id take him what would we have to give to philly? anyone?

greasywheels121 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I would love Rollins. That would be a solid 2B combo with Uribe and Rollins up the middle. Harris would be a very versatile player to have if he's placed on the bench too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubs Suck23 Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 I think it would take probably 2 high prospects like Sweeney and Mc Carthy to get Rollins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 I think Rollins straight up for Borchard would be a big win for the Sox, let alone us getting anything more. Â SB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 QUOTE(Jake @ Jan 9, 2005 -> 09:11 PM) your kidding right? hell no, borchard is going to be the next willie mays and we shouldnt give up on him unless we get an ace starting pitcher and a guy like rollins.
