Ozzie Calls Out Sox, Anderson

Ozzie Guillen says the Sox need to play better. Guillen said, "'Right now, it's time to wake up and make a run." It's about time he called these guys out for the way they have been playing.

Ozzie also called out Brian Anderson, yesterday. Guillen says that Anderson needs to realize that his job is not guaranteed for next year, and he needs to play winter ball. Anderson, reluctantly, has agreed to play winter ball in Venezuela next year. Ozzie wants him to work on stealing bases, and Guillen is unhappy with the overall outfield speed.

Adding to the outfield confusion, Ozzie is falling in love with Ryan Sweeney. Guillen loved Sweeney's hustle when he advanced to third on a pitch in the dirt on Tuesday. Ozzie said it reminded him of a young Ozzie Guillen. This further compounds the outfield situation for the rest of 2006 and for 2007. Ozzie is losing faith in Scott Posednik, has called out Brian Anderson, and Jermaine Dye is due back from injury tonight.

Also due back from injuries are Bobby Jenks, Mark Buehrle, and Dustin Hermanson. Jenks' and Buehrle's MRIs checked out okay, and Hermanson is due to return tonight from his rehabillitation stint in Charlotte. Ozzie says that Hermanson would not have been called up if Ozzie did not intend to use him.
