June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 08:18 PM) Any idea if he's starting tomorrow? He will be in Chicago tomorrow according to Rongey, he will be there for the game. I can't speak to the starting lineup.
June 4, 200916 yr He's likely had his last minor league at bats for quite a while. I do believe he's up for good.
June 4, 200916 yr Rongey said he would start according to ozzie....probably at 3b or 2b....and probably batting 7 8 or 9...i think he'll play 3b with Josh at DH
June 4, 200916 yr Ahhh, Jon Garland just lossed a no hitter in the 5th. Oh wait Gordon Beckham was just called up. Who Cares?
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 09:49 PM) Effin' a people, post your freakin' sources. PLEASE!?!? Maybe you should add another counter.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:22 PM) Does this make Flowers our new #1 prospect or it is Poreda? IMO its flowers....i think he's much more likely to become a regular every day player than Poreda, and probably has a better shot at making an all star team...that said its my guess that the general pulse of soxtalk will say its Poreda
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 11:24 PM) We need to get his nickname into the mainstream. Everyone from the board who goes to the game needs to have a Slayer sign.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:24 PM) We need to get his nickname into the mainstream. couldn't disagree more...that nickname is so lame

June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:25 PM) Everyone from the board who goes to the game needs to have a Slayer sign. will do. we ALL need to do it. let's make it happen
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Reddy @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 11:26 PM) will do. we ALL need to do it. let's make it happen A chant would be awesome, but i doubt our numbers are that strong.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:25 PM) couldn't disagree more...that nickname is so lame how is Slayer lame???
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:25 PM) couldn't disagree more...that nickname is so lame I'm going to have to agree. As much as I love the nickname and the reasoning, something much better is deserved for a player of his possible caliber.
June 4, 200916 yr Live from the Cell, Josh Mora from CSN: Gordon will be mostly at 3B, but will spare SS and 2B as needed. Josh will be now working on 1B, and be Paulie's backup when time comes. Josh Fields didn't talk to the reporters.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:27 PM) A chant would be awesome, but i doubt our numbers are that strong. If everyone tells the person on their left and the person on their right, and maybe the person in front and in back, that's 4 more people that know about the nickname.
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 11:26 PM) If Danks keeps hitting the way he has for the rest of the year, he will have an argument as well. I have to think this over. Right now, i have€. Flowers Poreda Danks Allen Link Hudson Shelby Retherford Omogrosso Morel
June 4, 200916 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 3, 2009 -> 10:02 PM) Do it. This is our can't miss prospect. We might not see this again for quite some time. i just called in, gave them some bulls*** about my car not starting, doubt they bought it but need a go slayer icon and rock, you were right, i didnt see this coming so soon
