June 15, 201114 yr So who are the players that Hawk seems to have a love for even though they're not exactly all star players? I can think of the following: - Carlos Gomez (Team Captain) - Kurt Suzuki - Randy Ruiz - Brandon Inge - Matt Harrison
June 15, 201114 yr Author I swear, every time we faced the A's last year, he told the same story of how great Suzuki is and how smart the A's were for locking him up to a multi-year deal.
June 15, 201114 yr Author Erstad has to be included on this, as well as any pitcher drafted in the 8th round or lower out of college because they had to fight to make the majors. Edited June 15, 201114 yr by fathom
June 15, 201114 yr I'm sure Carl Yastrzemski would be pretty terrible right now. Edited June 15, 201114 yr by Milkman delivers

June 15, 201114 yr Author QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 09:01 PM) Who the heck is that? I think he was on Toronto last year. Hawk had a 9 inning erection every game we played them discussing how strong he was.
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:04 PM) I'd like to see Hawk be a part of a franchise-player draft. He already did that once...
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:04 PM) He already did that once... Well, I'd like to see him do one today. BTW, doesn't Hawk like Delmon Young a lot?

I can't say I remember him. Either way, Wikipedis says he's now in Japan after 217 MLB career at-bats. Sounds exactly like a player Hawk would fall in love with.
June 15, 201114 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 04:30 PM) "I tell you what Stone Pony, the head of Ted Williams could hit .300 today." Sadly...I'm not sure that's wrong.
June 15, 201114 yr Basically players with minimal to no talent catches Hawk's fancy. Just like our manager.

June 15, 201114 yr Who the f*** was the mediocre infielder on the Tigers early 2000s I wanna say that Hawk always said "swung the magic wand" against us?
