No, I always thought Rongey was an idiot. I personally can't stand him, and I think he is one of the worst pre/post game guys the sox have had. I wish we could bring back the guy from last year. His names escapes me right now...

 

Duck

This yr. Alomar has a CERA of 6.09 in 18 games with the dodgers. Career 4.54 CERA

I liked that guy too. The Dodge people gave him a car to drive around during the season, and he always gave them airtime and a lot of pub. With all the mentions, he deserved better than the Neon they let him use.

He'd know better than anyone else.

Great research

Thanks, just finished it up with all of his starts. Only reason I looked is I remember a few Dodgers saying how he's really good to pitch to but I also remember someone telling me that he always catches the really bad players (some fan called into the Dodger station and whoever the Dodger radio guy was brought up this info about who he actually caught).

Bryan Dolgin is the guy you are thinking of.

 

Back-up catcher ERA;s can be deceiving no question. Sandy's has generally been higher than the team's ERA for his entire career however. The White Sox have always thought very highly of him, and think he's a future major league manager. IIRC they tried to get him to retire a couple years ago, and make him a coach or manager somewhere in the organization.

Ya, I know the organization has always raved about Sandy. He is a veteran that fits in very well and goes about his business in a professional way yet he's still willing to help out the young kids too.

That i understand. But from here on out the site is trying to do away with posts calling anyone an idiot because it really doesn't say much. If you just say I don't think too highly of Rongey because he is one of the worse pre/post game guys the Sox have had, imo.

So right now we only have the one report from the Fuzzy Pink Bunny? I'm going to need a little more than that to believe this is anything other than specuation.

Wait, Alomar has to pass a psyical for the trade to go through, if this is true. He'll never pass a psyical

wait so this isn't for sure yet, cuz i dont know if i like this move

The White Sox post game guy reported it but nothing has been announced as official.

no. It is Chris Rogney, who I don't think highly off (happy ), speculating that we got him.

I love his new nickname. lol fuzzy pink bunny

I don't know why Rongy would say Alomar is coming if he isn't. While I was hoping that it wasn't true, it most likely is.

I remember when it got to the point where ESPN reported the Erstad trade as being official, or at least not saying according to sources. Until I hear more, it's still a rumor.

I'm listening to the score online now, I'll post if i hear anything.

A third helping of Sandy Alomar Jr.

 

Can he bring Robbie, too?

Im actually happy with Alomar back... if he isnt used that much I think he can still hit for a good avg. too. If I remember correctly he started off pretty well his last season with us but than probably from being over-used since we had no trust in Olivo he started to cool off and avg. went down fast.

Check out the Widger reaction thread for some strong words.

Widger is damn worthless and I couldn't stand when he played this year. How is Sandy any better?

Whoever it is, they have to be here for tomorrow night's game. I wouldn't be surprised if Stewart is flown to Chicago just in case Alomar or whomever else they are bringing in doesn't get here on time.

This would've been a good move in 1998.

Trade Official.

 

Alomar for AA pitcher BJ, didn't catch the last name.

BJ LaMura I assume.

 

That was it.

Wow, Lamura for Sandy. That's over paying imo. Lamura has a pretty damn good arm and could be a decent reliever one of these years. I think BJ could have maybe been a decent throw in, in a larger deal. Wish we could have given up a Munoz type...
