SoxPride56 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Sox Roster With Numbers Now why would BMAC change his number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I read in Trade Winds you didn't find this topic worthy of creating a thread. Admit it-- you believe a trade may go down, and changing McCarthy's number on the site is somehow an indication of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admit it-- you believe a trade may go down, and changing McCarthy's number on the site is somehow an indication of this. Actually, I would have expected him to switch to the number he liked to wear in the minors... #35 Of course, he would never do that. I wouldn't be surprised to see that one retired this year.

Dam8610 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 QUOTE(SoxPride56 @ Dec 4, 2005 -> 01:13 AM) Now why would BMAC change his number? Because he wanted to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punch and Judy Garland Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Miggy Cabrera changed from 20 to 24 (or the reverse of that) after they won the World Series. No reason why other than they want to change sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Well, Buehrle is wearing 56...maybe that had somethin' to do with it. Beats me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatScott82 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Garland used to be 52. You guys remember that? Players change there #s sometimes. No biggy. I doubt that its because of a potential trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevHead0881 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 So the guy is a big Otis Wilson fan. Whats the big deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 You all are making the big leap of faith that the White Sox website is correct. There have been no stories or talk of Brandon changing his number so I wouldn't freak out just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayitaintso Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Maybe he likes Lance Briggs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccarthyp Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Dec 4, 2005 -> 09:58 PM) Maybe he likes Lance Briggs too. Players get an assigned number when they first come up. No choice in the matter. Forty-one was not his choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santo=dorf Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 i'm guessing 35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toasty Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 mebbe he should take 53 then, reverse of 35 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afacio Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Well, the SOX website MAY be wrong. IIRC when the Sox reacauired Everett the 39th time, they had him listed as wearing #2, which obviously is retired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Dec 5, 2005 -> 10:39 AM) I'll trust Papa McCarthy on this one. Yeah, thank God we found that out before Soxfest, I am going to try to get my Bmac jersey done this year. Maybe now I'll be the first Bmac-55 on my block Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Dec 5, 2005 -> 10:21 AM) Actaully, I think it would be kinda cool to have a Bmac 41 jersey. Kind of like a Rowand 44 jersey(Rowand44, you still suck), or like Garland 52. Maybe even like a Borchard 25 jersey..... Only a few people will get that.... Every time we go to a game with that kid, i hear at least 10 people say "oh man, is that a borchard jersey?!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
