MLB Postseason on SB Nation

The White Sox haven't officially released their playoff roster, but Joe Cowley has the all-but-official scoop. Josh Fields is the only surprise for me, but I was also wondering who they would take as a backup infielder. Full list after the jump.

GS can play 2 - 5 in the infield.

We’re covered.

Pitching and defense win baseball games in September and October.

In mostly unrelated news

Pablo Ozuna made the Dodgers playoff roster. Just saw him in the dugout dancing with Manny after Manny’s HR.

I don't think you need to be on the playoff roster to be in the dugout

I don’t think BA was on the roster in 05 when they clinched in Houston, but he was certainly in the dugout (and on the field afterward).

this isn't hard. you live in a port city. and you're a slut. do the math. -larry

I think Anderson was the first one out

when they clinched in ’05. But I checked the internets before reporting, and he is indeed on their roster.

I was searching to find out if BA was on the 05 WS roster

and according to the 2005 WS Wikipedia page, which we all know is clearly the truth written in stone, BA isn’t on it.

I do find it odd that there are 26 players listed on that roster with Frank Thomas being one of them.

And you are correct, as you pointed out, that Ozuna is on the Dodger’s postseason roster. Hooray Ozuna! Hooray Joe Torre!

cowley told us

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

I bow to your superior reasoning

Ron used to play a good 3rd base.

Now he makes a good 3rd base.

A reefer?

The last thing he wants is to go on a drunken tequila binge and wake up in his hotel room on Sunday draped in hookers and clutching a reefer the size of a corncob.

...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.

maybe that's why they signed cedric!

God only knows what they were up to in there

And furthermore, Susan, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes

Quentin

Does this mean he wont make any of the playoffs, or just not the ALDS?

by JoeCoolMan24 on Oct 1, 2008 10:50 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I think you guys forget

That if we need Russel is one of our pitchers but also could double and play every position on the field…all at once…all the guy does is win

Ground ball to first, and the White Sox have won the Pennant!

That tidbit had slipped my mind. Thanks for the reminder! ;)
