June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 08:06 PM) 3B at Charlotte should be a sign. Bye bye Josh. If Getz is healthy I'd rather see Beck at third, Lexi at short and Getz at 2B. Getz hasn't hit any better than Fields.
June 4, 200916 yr Cowley saying he should be seeing most of the time at 3B. Remember everyone game tomorrow at 1:05 CSN.
June 4, 200916 yr Holy crap, I'm so excited! Definitely an exciting day for White Sox fans. See ya later Betemit! Hello GORDAN f***ING BECKHAM!
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (jasonxctf @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 11:06 PM) who's the backup 1B? Good Question. Kroeger?
June 4, 200916 yr f*** Yes. BUT.... If he's taking Betemit's spot on the team i.e. bench guy, than f*** NO. He needs to be STARTING EVERY DAY, not wasting away on the bench while Josh Fields swings through 89 mph fastballs
June 4, 200916 yr I'm surprised they didn't bring him up to start this series to face pitchers his own age. Would have been a nice start seeing the young pitchers 4 straight nights.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 4, 2009 -> 04:07 AM) Good Question. Kroeger? would Fields play 1B in an emergency... Castro?
June 4, 200916 yr Some moron just called up the postgame. Do you think Beckham can play OF. Just f***ing hang up on these dumb calls.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:07 PM) f*** Yes. BUT.... If he's taking Betemit's spot on the team i.e. bench guy, than f*** NO. He needs to be STARTING EVERY DAY, not wasting away on the bench while Josh Fields swings through 89 mph fastballs Ozzie said he's gonna drink himself to sleep, but wake up tomorrow and figure out a way to give Beckham atbats.
June 4, 200916 yr I don't know why Oz needs to lose sleep on this. Pick either Fields or Getz to bench. I'd prefer benching Fields and putting Beckham there. But just do one of the two.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:03 PM) So if he struggles his first week, how long until we hear about Joe Borchard and other failed prospects? This could be interesting. About the second he goes 1-10. This place is gonna be hilarious if he bombs.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:11 PM) About the second he goes 1-10. This place is gonna be hilarious if he bombs. If he starts his MLB career anything close to how he started all of his minor league stops, we'll be just fine.
June 4, 200916 yr About the second he goes 1-10. This place is gonna be hilarious if he bombs. I'd think there'd be more blaming of Kenny for rushing him if that happens. Although we have a lot of people on here who assess batters' swings, etc. If he is showing some big perceived flaws in his stance, swing, approach, yes the anger will be out in full force. And the calling for Walker's head again. Actually the law of averages favor Beckham. How many of our new callups/guys acquired via trade do anything great right out of the gate?

June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 08:13 PM) Haha no s***, this place will be bananas if he sucks hard. (Ventures in to future...steals one of my posts from 2 weeks from now, brings it back and posts it now) QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2009 -> 04:45 PM) WHY IN THE WORLD IS WISE STARTING AT 3B OVER BECKHAM?!?!?!?!?!?! This has been another edition of Balta, time traveling poster.
June 4, 200916 yr I don't remember the last time I have been this excited for a call-up since.................................................................
