井口、フィリーズに登場、パイレーツ戦でさっそくsolidな仕事をしたようですね(桑田は打たれましたが)。
フィリーズの掲示板で、ホワイトソックスファンがフィリーズファンに井口をほめています。井口はホワイトソックスでファンにもっとも親しまれていた一人だったと思います。好感をもちましたので、原文で恐縮ですが、ちょっと紹介します。
White Sox fan here. ........show the 'Guch' (Iguchi) more respect. Yes, he's hitting only .251 this year. But he's been a solid .280+ hitter the last 2 seasons. You call Rowand a great player. So I need to inform you that it was Iguchi whom WSox mgt. and the PLAYERS themselves referred to as the White Sox MVP in 2005 when we won it all. Ask Rowand himself? Is he as good as Utley? Answer: No . Reason: Chase Utley is the best in all of baseball. Hey, btw, Utley's understudy, Placido Polanco, hasn't done bad for the Tigers, has he? Two words describe Guch----SOLID and SMOOTH. Your getting a good player. A winner. ...Reasons we made trade: (1) He's a FA end of year (2) We have a kid (Danny Richar) who needs to be up in the majors now. A future star. A young 2nd baseman who was hitting .349 at AAA (Charlotte).
Something else......Iguchi is playoff experienced, playoff tested, and playoff tough...He single-handily beat Boston in game 2 of the AL division playoffs in '05 with that 3-run homer off David Wells. And played well throughout the playoffs. |
