just saw a picture of BA and he's wearing 32, not 44.

 

Saw he was also listed as 32 on the sox roster.

 

the new 44 is Toby Hall.

 

Anybody know the story?

 

BA just waiting on Hermie to leave to pounce on that number.

 

Can't hurt.

Hall is the vet so Brian gave up his number.

I know Brian was # 32 in AAA.

 

hes like mike... but white... so he's kinda backwards

I think this is a good move, #44 was communist.

Billy Koch was 44, no?

The number 32 (in general) will always have a special place in my heart, so I'm all for it! I love to see guys with that number have success, so good luck Mr. Anderson.

Wrong, BA had already switched to 32 before Hall was signed.

Must have been the last sticking point in Hall's negotiations.

Exactly. I believe it was a superstitious move more than anything, he wore #32 in the minors but switched to #44 in the bigs and failed miserably. Why not go back to what has worked for you in the past.

thats home many hits hes gonna have this year. 44 was pushing it.

if that's the case, he should have gone with 17.

#44 worked for Chet Lemon

So Ozzie won't know who he is.

good thing i didn't buy that jersey yet.

I read in an interview once that his number was 32 because it ws Magic Johnson's number.

He wants everyone to call him OJ or the Juice .

The same reasonRobin Ventura went from 21 to 23 after his rookie year......the rookie year sucked.

I also see players reverse the number, like going from 12 to 21. I wonder why he didn't just do that.

Missing that green lettering I see.

Someone had to say it.

There's no telling what can come from this!

I heard Brian say the same thing in an interview. He said he always wanted to Play in the NBA and he was a big Lakers fan.

So Ozzie won't know who he is.

hahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahhahahhahahahahahahahhaha.

 

"Whos that #32? I like the kid, he can use the glove! s***, It's Brian? HE SUCKS!"

I think this is a good move, #44 was communist.

 

 

Huh?
