Shingo only lasted a couple of months (if that) into the season. Did you mean Iguchi?

I've always regretted that the Sox didn't activate him and insert him in a Cub game so his last plate appearance could have been a walk issued by Carlos Marmol. They could have stopped the game and had his kids run out on the field.

Hard to play baseball when you cycling!

If the Cubs ever won a world series they would build a statue of every one in the history of the organization

While I support statues being built for most of the stars on the best team in Chicago baseball history we probably should have a team statue too to celebrate some of the lesser players on the best team in Chicago baseball history.

Yeah, BigFan is being a bit of a Shine blocker

Jamie Burke must be remembered

He wasn't on the 2005 club.

His statue would have to be under Torri Hunter's anyway.

I'm reasonably certain, without looking it up, that the catcher's in 2005 were AJ, Chris Widger, and Raul Cassanova. Burke might have been in spring training with them or in the minors, but I don't think he played for the Sox in 2005.

It really annoyed me that after a decade of pronouncing his name you-re-ba announcers suddenly started to call him oo-ri-ba

I stand corrected. 1 at bat I didn't know about.
Still no statue though. Much to bigfan's chagrin.

He deserves something though. Anyone who was on the best team in Chicago baseball history deserves recognition.

He can have a brick around the statue.

Bases loaded, no outs in Boston. Retired the side. That's a top five sports moment for me.

I remember that game well. I watched it with my buddy Troy (King Troy) Martin. Google him. Talk about an odd couple. The Sox brought us together! What a wonderful world!

In his defense, I'm only wrong 2 or 3 times a year so I can see why he would go to such lengths to prove this

A name isn't like a common noun. The correct pronounciation is whatever the owner chooses it to be. Juan is whacky enough to have changed the pronounciation after ten years.

Proper Spanish pronunciation is oo-ree-bay, not yoo-ree-bay.

Thanks.
