Guillen on Sox: Nine dead people walking

By Mark Gonzales
Tribune staff reporter

Manager Ozzie Guillen yearns for the day when he will have pleasant
problems, such as deciding which outfielders to send down to the minors
when Scott Podsednik and Darin Erstad return from injuries and the
possible returns of Pablo Ozuna and Joe Crede.

But after losing for the ninth time in 11 games, the thought of gaining
ground in the American League Central before re-entering divisional play
looks more ominous as the offense continues to struggle.


Guillen's plan to run aggressively Wednesday night was grounded by
Chien-Ming Wang, whose assortment of sinking pitches produced 15
groundouts in a complete-game effort as the New York Yankees moved one
game closer to a four-game sweep with a 5-1 victory at U.S. Cellular
Field.

"You can't put any emotion in when you don't get on base," Guillen said.
"It feels like nine dead people walking. It's not easy when you're not
hitting."

Wang (5-4) allowed only five singles to the Sox, who have scored three
runs or fewer in six of their past seven games.

"I try to put the best lineup out there," Guillen said. "Maybe it's not
working."

The Sox (26-29) employed their 45th lineup of the season, featuring the
2007 debut of third baseman Josh Fields, one of the organization's top
prospects. Fields went 0-for-3 but will get more opportunities with
Crede put on the 15-day disabled list because of two herniated disks in
his lower back.

Before the game, Guillen was jokingly asked about managing the Sox's
Triple-A Charlotte team. Leadoff hitter Jerry Owens and Fields have
spent most of the year playing for the Knights, as have reserves Andy
Gonzalez and Luis Terrero.

But Guillen pointed to the Sox string of good health in past years, as
Podsednik and Crede were the only regular players who spent time (albeit
limited) on the DL during the 2005 World Series championship season.

And last winter, trainer Herm Schneider received the 2006 Dick Martin
Award for Medical Staff of the Year by Baseball Prospectus for using the
DL only 34 times for 1,446 days—the lowest totals in the major leagues
over the past five years.

"It's time to see what will happen," Guillen said of the next few weeks
when his youngsters perform while the likes of Podsednik and Erstad
recover.

As of now, the Sox have lots of room for improvement, as evidenced by
their major league-low .233 team batting average. Jermaine Dye went
0-for-4 and is now 2-for-22. He hasn't hit a home run since May 22, the
same day A.J. Pierzynski (5-for-29) scored his last run.

Guillen is considering making another lineup change that could give Dye
a game off.

"I need some offense," Guillen said. "I'll try to give a chance to
[Andy] Gonzalez and give [Juan] Uribe a day off or [Tadahito] Iguchi.
I'll try to put the best offense we have out there."

Without any semblance of an offense, the pitching staff has no margin
for error. That was the case for the second consecutive game, as Javier
Vazquez was doomed by a four-run third. The first six Yankees reached
base safely, and the damage would have been greater if Alex Rodriguez
had not been nailed trying to stretch a single into a double and if
Jorge Posada not been caught in a rundown after Hideki Matsui hit a
sacrifice fly.

"Everyone has a job to do," Vazquez said. "My job was to keep us in the
game. Those four runs hurt."
