It has nothing to do with money. It has everything to do with the fact that they want to make sure they treat him right so that when he gets up here, he is absolutely ready to go. They don't want him pitching for a team that is still in it. Like Keyser said, when he gets called up, they want him to stay up. And the exact same thing holds true for Beckham.

The only way this might change is if they're completely out of it by mid-summer and they want to get those guys some low-pressure experience up here. Or if there are a ridiculous amount of injuries. But, even then, that is unlikely, too.

Quit lisping out politically correct mumbo jumbo, jerk on, cuz its getting older than the pre and post game bullshit that moron who hosts ejaculates from the mangina underneath his poorly grown mustache/bush, into the quiet, Chicago air.


The Cuban mistakel has been a non-factor so far, and thru your cookie cutter response, the Sox are better off using a human whindmill at the plate instead of giving Beckham, one of the best prospects in baseball, btw, a chance considering as of right now, hes a better defensive shortstop than Alexi, and with what Alexi is giving at the plate, couldnt be worse, yet, they dont want to rush a college drafted player who is putting up respectable numbers in a pitchers league in AA ball, who was drafted so he could be in the bigs sooner rather than later, because bring him up HAS NO EFFECT on his contractual status and starting his FA clock sooner than the Sox want to......uh, yeah, right.


Iam not even gonna get into the pitchers considering the Sox have dead weight in that rotation, two big piles of shitty dead weight, who arent doing this team any favors. Never mind that Richard was brought up last year when he wasnt mentally "ready", but contradicting an extreme glue/reisndorf seat cushion sniffer such as a mong such as you, isnt really that hard to do.



The Poofer- Go kick a middle school kid in the nuts, you might actually win.

Beckham has 6 errors already at AA. His hitting has been good, but not eye popping. He is still a work in progress who NEEDS time in the minors. While he may be able to come up today and be adequate, I want him to come up and be great.

The Poofer- Beckham isnt the next Ripken, but sure as fuck isnt the next Theriot, either.

Perhaps the best reason to call up Beckham, would be to create some interest in the team....As it is, the team is awful and there is little reason for optimism. If they put Alexi in CF and put Beckham at SS, at least it creates interest. I think based on how he played prior to getting hurt, that Anderson deserves to reclaim CF, but this team needs a buzz. The stands are going to be empty.

Not at all. I enjoy Cub wins more. The #1 concern, is the success of the Cubs. The lack of the same by the Sox, is just an extra reward...a bonus, if you will.
