greg775 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 We are officially starting to blow the lead after tonight's collapse. For the first time it seriously looks like the Tribe is gonna pass us by. So we need to get Frank to dress for the rest of the season and be bench coach, morale booster or some such thing. We need Frank in the dugout for moral support or to help Oz kick some butt. We can't let this magical season slip away without a fight.

greg775 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 I'm just saying we have to do something. It's slip, slip, slipping away and we are helpless to stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I'm not sure about Frank helping out in any emotional or mental way. Frank reminds us, and probably the players, of the old days. These aren't the old days. This is a new team with a whole new way of winning. I think they need to do it on their own terms. That said, it is hard to deny the knowledge Frank could provide. Maybe he can help out during BP and pre-game prep to provide that knowledge. What do people think? What effect would Frank have on the players right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 When I got back from Wyoming, I heard via Hawk that Frank actually dropped by the team during the last Texas series, kicked a few butts, and, for example, got the kinks worked out of Uribe's swing (something that has worked pretty well for us, I'd say). Last I read, Frank was seen living it up again in Vegas. Maybe it wouldn't hurt if he dropped by to kick a few butts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceffa2000 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Frank needs to be there. Hitting assistant, bench coach, whatever. If Brandon ends up pitching more, having his idol in the dugout would be huge for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Frank as a bench coach? Maybe. Frank as a hitting coach? Maybe. Frank as an enforcer? Hell yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
