Could be. The bent knees are obvious, however.

 

 

 

Thing is, we're not going to win anything until the players improve their on base percentage. Big Hurt somehow hit for power and also walked a lot.

 

He did that by being one of the greatest hitters of all time.

Hawk keeps chattering about Konerko coming back in 2014. Actually, it would not surprise me.

Then we can give him a standing O when his new team comes to Chicago, as long as someone convinces that manager to let him start a game that series.

Will the team learn on base principles by osmosis?

Wonder why Juan Pierre didn't try that

Not enough TWTW

Don't you remember when Juan Pierre won a World Series with the Marlins his first year with the team? COME ON MAN

Not enough TWTW

 

You really need to use TWTW+ to account for league and park factors.

And in Juan's case we should look at TWTfW because he is small guy, so he falls in The Will To f***ing Win category.

TWTfW is only second to TGPot2005T in player evaluation importance

I don't know. He has shown he can come back strong from injuries. His back has been bothering him all season. If it gets right he may be able to do it.

I still don't know what kind of power he has because of that wrist injury. It's going to cost him power all year, that was said when the injury first happened.

Could be true. Although it should have started to rebound by now. Maybe he is just getting comfortable again.

That's great, but a "guy in his late 30's trying to heal up his back and come back for 1 more year" really wouldn't have any place on a team like where the 2014 white sox will be. The 2014 White Sox seem like every guy on their Roster should be someone that they're stuck with because of contracts (Danks, Dunn), someone who has a future with the team (90% of the roster), and maybe a bullpen or bench guy veteran thrown in to be a veteran and possibly be traded at the deadline.

I'm not saying it's the right move, just that with JRs loyalty I wouldn't rule it out.

I'm ready to say goodbye to Paulie. Great career, no reason to drag it down into zombie territory.

Yep. Thanks for the memories, but it's time to go.

My vote is for Kate Upton. She's definitely FAMOUS and you have her in the dugout with just a jersey on and no pants and attendance will skyrocket.

 

LMAO she is overrated.

Uh oh. I'm sensing somebody doesn't like Paulie very much. We'll never know how badly his injuries have been. My guess is they've been really bad. If so he'll probably retire.

PTATC do you think if his back is killing him, he'll just retire? Back pain probably is even keeping him awake all night, right?

Funny how you can excuse a player having literally the worst season of any 1B in the majors.

Come on, man. We all love Paulie. 38 year olds with back, knee, foot, and wrist problems are typically on their way out.

PTATC can you comment on whether Paulie's back pain is affecting his sleep?
