May 9, 200322 yr You mean people actually thought "No Stick" would be an improvement over Dorn? Dorn sucks, I haven't seen much of Willie this year. I hate west coast games, too damn late for me. Harris is a guy who would've been great 15 years ago when half the parks had turf. He could've bunted till he broke his fingers.
May 9, 200322 yr umm no i didnt ... but i hear my other boy may be joining us soon........ Can't be Joe, since Joe no hit the ball. Has to be Miles.
May 9, 200322 yr Dorn sucks, I haven't seen much of Willie this year. I hate west coast games, too damn late for me. You ain't missed much..... 2, maybe 3 hits since his call-up.

May 9, 200322 yr At the game today, had great seats first base side 14 rows up, he just looked lost. Everytime he was walking back to the dugout shaking his head like he has no idea what was coming or goingon.
May 9, 200322 yr From an article by Doug Padilla in the Sun Times: ''He's had better at-bats than the first time he was up,'' Manuel said. ''He put together some pretty good plate appearances. Hopefully, that will turn into better results. That just hasn't happened for him. Center field is probably where he's more free, more natural, and he's doing OK.'' The whole Harris portion of the article has the same basic theme. Has he looked as bad as the board says he has or is he just going through some "hang wiffums", as Hawk says? Here's the link to the article: Padilla
May 9, 200322 yr Willie Harris = 4A player. He might even make a good guy off of the bench, but I haven't seen anything that saids he should be a starter.
May 9, 200322 yr I think Willie might have the tools to make it in the bigs, but he hasn't looked good out there so far. I for one love the bunts though. We can't always be looking for the big tater. We have to be able to play little ball too. I think he might be down to AAA again soon if he doesn't start producing more and maybe Rowand will be back up. I don't see Borchard till later in the season.
May 9, 200322 yr I have said and will say again that no way is WIllie going to hit half of what Aaron did. (And thats saying alot). He could be a decent pinch hitter/runner from time to time though. He can get a bunt down when we really need it and provide speed from the bench. We just need to get ourselves a REAL centerfielder soon.
May 9, 200322 yr Willie Harris = 4A player. He might even make a good guy off of the bench, but I haven't seen anything that saids he should be a starter. At this point the White Sox are a 4A team, so i guess he fits right in

That is saying a lot, and it's saying way too much. That's blown out of proportion cuz Rowand is ridiculously terrible at the plate, you can't be twice as bad as that.
