Gene Honda Civic Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 I hope the greedy SOB hides his injury from the tiggers, puting up Borchard-like numbers, but appearing in enough games to guarantee his 7 year contract.... Â Good luck dealing with that s*** Dtroit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubsSuck1 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Will Sox fans greet Ordonez with an ovation for his years of service or with boos for rejecting what many believed was a fair offer? Ordonez was unsure. "I hope the fans know I did my best for them, and they'll appreciate that," he said.  Pretty sure he's going to get booed...

Along with answering questions about his left knee, Ordonez will have to adjust to playing in a pitcher-friendly ballpark for the first time. Ordonez is a career .259 hitter at Comerica Park with only one home run in 135 at-bats. I'd say there's a better chance than none of that happening.

Rowand44 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 I hope his career goes to s***, I really do. I hope he rots away in Detroit. What a loser, honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelasDaddy0427 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Wow...just wow... So Maggs is pissed that KW dared to tell the truth about the extent of his injury. There is no way he is going to be a .300 hitter anymore with the Tigers. Maybe .280 tops. Plus he won't sniff 30 HR's again any time soon. He's going to get whats coming to him.

SoxFan562004 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 This is just a sad ending. Maggs is still bitter that he turned down a guaranteed 70m from the sox, the Tigers contract sounds great, but if his knee is not healthy it's void after this year. Â I was neutral before this on whether I would boo him or not, now I am going to make sure i get to the first Tigers series at the Cell and boo him until my throat hurts. Unreal. Completely ignoring the fact the Sox offered him fair contracts (and I don't want to hear the defered money excuse from him or his agent, Beltran had more defered money in his deal with little to no interest). Â The fact he's crying that the Sox didn't offer him arbitration is insanity. Yeah sure Maggs, you had out of the country surgery, which is NOT approved in the U.S. (although Couch seems to think it's great because it's "becoming more accepted" in the U.S.) and your agent wouldn't show the Sox medical reports. So you expected them to give you 12-15m dollars for a player they couldn't look at? Â s***, I even take the Cubs side on this one. He's hurt the Cubs didn't pursue him hard enough? Hey, you fooled one team into giving you a long-term deal, don't cry that it wasn't the team you wanted it to be. Â And before the local Chicago media starts slobbing Detroit's knob about "improving" please look at their pitching staff... especially since Urbina's status is still up in the air with his mom's kidnapping.

DBAHO Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Vladimir Guerrero signed a deal for less than what Maggs is going to get; Vlad's 1st season, .337, 39 HR's, 126 RBI's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshPR Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Not gonna defend Maggs. But take anything Paul Suckvas wristes with a grain of salt. I don't blame the Tigers. They think Maggs is Ok so they go for it. I think Maggs is the one being classless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Tizzle Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 "Basically we felt that where we wanted to go [contractually] wasn't in the ballpark of some of the offers. It was something that we thought the risk, for the length and dollars being offered, didn't make much sense."Â Ordonez said he had no hard feelings for the Cubs. Â "They have to do what they have to do," he said. Â How much different is Hendry's response from Kennys? Â Did Magglio honestly believe they'd offer arbitration without examining, or observing him workout? It's ridiculous Magglio spouts off against Sox management, while failing to acknowledge the risk of spending 12 million on a player recovering from knee surgery. I wouldn't expect him to publically acknowledge this risk; but merely understand our situation and remain quiet. Â Detroit didn't forsee anything other clubs overlooked. They simply wet their pants at the notion of an unsuccessful offseason. Extra money laying around from the NHL strike has to be spent on something. Â Oh, and Magglio, when only one club offers a contract you term suitable, there's usually a reason. While Mets/Cubs weren't on record questioning your knee, it's obvious the problem is lingering in the minds of general mangers. Have fun in Comerica, buddy.

TheBlackSox8 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 For the series with Detriot....people going to the game need to make a banner that reads: "Oh-eee-Oh.....A$$-Lio, Oh-eee-Oh.....A$$-Lio" The $ gives it the added bonus.

Wanne Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 Personally...I'm sick of f***ing hearin about the guy. WHO GIVES A f***!!! He's gone...he's not on the Sox....he's a whiny, greedy little prick. I don't feel any sentiment whatsoever for the dude...did he ever carry the Sox on his back to a pennant?!? I couldn't give a f*** less what he does in Detroit...good for him and his fat contract....that those morons (the only ones who offered you s*** too) offered you. f*** him...case closed!

The Beast Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 All you guys aren't thinking of what he did when he was here. So he signed with another team? We got Dye to replace him, who is a gamble yet, a lot more versatile. Â I will cheer when he comes back to Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're a Maggs fan, but do you think he's worth a 7 year deal for about $105 million considering Comerica Park isn't one of his favorite parks to hit in?

It's like your dog that you raised biting your hand while feeding him, running to your neighbors, and viciously barking at you every time you walk past his fence.

whitesox91403 Posted February 7, 2005 Share Posted February 7, 2005 His poor little feelings are hurt. It just seems like he can't believe that The Sox would have to view his medical records before bringing him back. Good thing KW isn't stupid.. I had no idea Maggs Comerica park numbers were so bad. I hope he and The Tigers are miserable in The AL Central cellar for many many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
