March 7, 200521 yr Supposedly Willie did a great job at short in a minor league game, and KW and Oz say they love how he's going about the situation hes in. Maybe their bsin but maybe they are not, if Willie proves he can do a decent job at short do you think it wouldn't be a bad idea to carry another pitcher like Adkins? http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb...t=.jsp&c_id=cws
March 7, 200521 yr I like the loyalty to the team that he and others are at least saying he has. I'll pull for Willie, and he can still get a ton of PT this season if he can play middle infield and outfield.
March 7, 200521 yr wow, for the first time i can say he sounded like a smart guy in an interview =0 way to go willie!
March 7, 200521 yr yeah with his ability to play OF, SS, and 2B he should get a lot of playing time which would be sweet.
March 7, 200521 yr Isn't that cute... And we still dont have a backup 3Bman. Unless you count Uribe...and I don't...because he's our starting SS. He may stick around...I'm not sure...but I do know that he this could be to also boost his trade value as well.
March 7, 200521 yr well if Burke makes the team which he might if Willie can do SS cant burke play 3B?

March 7, 200521 yr QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 10:24 PM) well if Burke makes the team which he might if Willie can do SS cant burke play 3B? yeah, that is one option. If Harris plays short well enough to serve as a utility guy, then the option is to bring Adkins or Burke, but that is if Davis already has the nod over Burke, which I hope isn't the case.
March 7, 200521 yr Rooney and Farmer were less than impressed with Iguchi's defense in the little bit of game that I heard.
March 7, 200521 yr QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 10:47 PM) Something that has not been brought up, maybe for good reason is, but could Gload play 3b at all? I think it could be worth a shot, no? Throws lefty = not a 3rd baseman
March 7, 200521 yr QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 10:53 PM) Throws lefty = not a 3rd baseman this has been mentioned a few times. a lot of people think Gload is right-handed. hell, Gload even throws righty on MVP 2005.

With his salary Davis will get the nod over Burke, remember we resigned Davis before we got AJ, when it appeared he was just something to dream about for a sec. Glad hes on the team now.
