CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 04:36 PM) they aren't the only ones. the deal doesn't make much sense to me either Nor I unless Griff can turn stay as hot as he is at the moment. 1 less crap bat (Swish, PK , BA, Wise) in the lineup I guess.

Soxman72 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Now we are starting to see/hear more on Griffey. It is like the White Sox PR guys are telling them to pump up the trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanne Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 06:40 PM) Did Hawk basically just call Griff washed up? Sure sounded that way to me...with his Jordan and Golden Bear comparisons. what a dick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxman72 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Swish was out (hell of a throw - bad call by the ump), but I like to see the activity from him. Maybe the trade will light a fire under him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is washed up what does that say about Konerko. Griffey has been better at the plate than Konerko each of the last two years. And the same goes for Swisher actually.

When your 32 and 27 its called a bad year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your 32 and 27 its called a bad year. Worded that poorly for Swisher as I am not saying that Swisher is washed up. Just saying that if Griffey is washed up and is still out producing Konerko and Swisher they must really suck. Fact is that Griffey has been better than Swisher each of the last 2 years and he posted a .868 OPS last year. He shouldn't be an everyday CF but he has been hitting very well lately and with the way Konerko has been hitting Griffey is certainly a better option at the plate.

Vance Law Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) Also, all of those guys will play (with Anderson/Wise being the odd man out). 6 guys for 5 positions (OF, 1B, DH). If they played the entire year like that, each guy would get 135 starts. 135 starts. Whoever's playing well and hitting should be in the lineup.
