Default Danny Richar and Rob Mackowiak
Was at the playoffs tonight for the Durham Bulls vs. Louisville Bats and surprised to see these guys now play for the Bats!

I walked over to the dugout before the game and said "hi" to Richar and to Mackowiak said that he's missed in Chicago, to which he smiled and said thanks.....

Neither got on base, but it was fun to see them...

I've always liked Rob Mackowiak. Just not in center field for the Sox.

Didn't really have much better options.

I kind of feel for Mackowiak, the guy grew up a Sox fan and I'm sure he wanted nothing more than to succeed here, but he was a utility player that was forced in an everyday role. Oh well, if nothing else, he turned into an intriguing prospect for the Sox, so thanks for that, Rob!

Mackowiak was a solid player for us. I still don't get why he's treated like Andy Gonzalez around here.

I would have not been able to keep a straight face if I told him this.

I have no ill will towards Mackowiak, just ill will towards Ozzie for starting him in CF when he clearly was not CF material.
