March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 06:20 PM) Does that sound like something he might need surgery to correct or is that re-hab-able? It sounds like what speedy Podsednik had about 40 different times over the past 3 years.
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 06:13 PM) Is there a way that we can come up with a nickname for Owens that takes into account Podsednik? Prancer V2.0
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 04:13 PM) For some wierd reason, I think BA is going to take this job, run away and hide it from Owens I'd prefer to see that. Jerry PodsOwens can go away.
March 26, 200818 yr Wow. If we could get Owens on the 60 day DL. Have Quentin, better yet, Dye, DH against all lefties, with Quentin in RF, I'd be pretty ecstatic. But also, wow. We're starting off the season with all of 2 left handed hitters on the team, while last year we occasionally started 4 or 5. Edited to add, oh yeah, Swisher is a switch hitter, so 3 lefties.

March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 06:15 PM) Black Prancer That's along the lines of what I was thinking though I do like Frowens even if it doesn't have anything to do with Pods.
March 26, 200818 yr Don't come back now, you hear? you never want to see injuries, but this is good news. I was hoping some third basemen would get hurt. Crede should be wearing Dodger blue right now.
March 26, 200818 yr If both Anderson and Quentin are going to make the team, I'd rather for Carlos to start the season in AAA. He needs AB's, in order to make sure his shoulder is 100% healthy, and then he can come up when he gets hot (which I have absolutely no doubt he will do so, because he has crushed AAA pitching before). That's unless they make him a starter in LF with Swisher in CF with BA as the 4th OF (which would be the ideal scenario for me).
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(Reddy @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 04:05 PM) i actually let out a cheer when i read this... is that bad? i hope to god this gives BA a chance. I've always supported Owens and thought he's capable of hitting .300 with 10-15 triples and 30+ doubles. I will say that it's been a bit frustrating hearing Ozzie say he'd even be in the lineup against lefties especially when his D is mediocre and arm is pitiful. Who would've thought BA would produce such a monster spring ? If BA can hit the way he has this spring along with his D that's an all-star caliber presence. Also Quentin seems likely to stay now and lately he's been getting in a groove batting which would be perfect for resting Thome.
March 26, 200818 yr I hope this puts BA in the driver seat for the CF position. My plan to have a BA jersey might actually work. I have blank one in my closet.

March 26, 200818 yr This is the start of Brian Anderson, the future Hall of Famer. My one goal with this current Chicago White Sox team is to party with Brian Anderson at some point. I think it would be fun.

March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(iamshack @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 11:01 PM) Can I be invited too? Sure NO GURLS ALLOWED THO
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 03:02 AM) Brian Anderson: Aaron Rowand II or Mark Kotsay II? Torii Hunter lite is a better comparison
March 26, 200818 yr "My groin isn't where we want it to be," Owens said before undergoing tests. Don't we all have this problem.
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 08:06 AM) "My groin isn't where we want it to be," Owens said before undergoing tests. Don't we all have this problem. Most often place we'd want our groin to be... Jessica Alba.
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Mar 25, 2008 -> 09:34 PM) Like someone said before, hate to see it, but this is awesome. This is the only way our team will get better, an injury to Owens. Now we just need Crede to slip and fall and hurt his back....... classy.

Well, I guess it depends on how you want to interpret the quote. As Jerry stated it, it sounds like his groin might be lodged somewhere between his shoulder blade and his spinal cord.
March 26, 200818 yr QUOTE(thedoctor @ Mar 26, 2008 -> 09:05 AM) classy. I have never claimed to be classy... it's not my style when it comes to baseball. But I'm sorry, I just want to see the best team on the field at any given time, so we have our best shot at winning. I feel BA provides this chance.
