Morel 3-3 tonight. Javelinas running away with the division. They'll be in the championship game on Nov. 21. On MLB Network.

Adrian would be a perfect fit. Lefty power bat. Gold Glove defense. Affordable contract. The Sox would be stupid not to try to get him. Really, I would trade Floyd or Hudson, and any two or three eligible prospects in the system. Take your pick.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 10:01 PM) Sox prospect wins the Cross City AFL League Prospect Classic. Also, D2 needs a new number since Quentin's got 20. I say he should get 52, since its 50 + 2 If Teahen takes 24, I could see Viciedo going to 52. I believe he wore that in the minors and it was Contreras's number.

Tony "I tell you what" Clark is just brutal.

QUOTE (CSF @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 02:49 PM) Ryne Sandberg began his career at 3B with Philly. When he was traded to the Cubs, they moved him to 2B. Cal Ripken Jr came up with the O's as a 3B & they moved him to SS. Biggio was a catcher, & the Stros moved him to 2B. Sandberg started 131 games at 3B in 1982, for the Cubs.

QUOTE (Cali @ Nov 7, 2009 -> 11:23 AM) Not really related to this discussion, but I'm calling it right now: the 2010 All Star Ballot will list Beckham as a 3rd Basemen Thereby screwing him out of a starter position. Yeah, the team turns that in to the league in March. I think he's safe being listed as a 2B...as long as he's not moved before then.

It's interesting he's had a similar career path as Ryne Sandberg. Drafted as and played SS in the minors. Moved to 3B for rookie year. Played 2B the rest of his career. I hope Beckham stays there. He'll have a good chance at being a perennial All-Star.

http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?g...peswin_perwin_1 Night game. Danks and Morel each 1-2. Morel stole home.

If Danks makes the team, I'm calling it nepotism. No way is he ready.

Rough day for Danks and Retherford. CJ is in a slump. Bellamy had another scoreless inning. 2 k's. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?g...perwin_msswin_1

No way Nix is an everyday player next year.

As much as I like Retherford, I don't think he'll be there on Opening Day. It may set up an opportunity for him in 2011, but I think they'll sign a veteran for 2B, and have CJ at Charlotte ready to go if they need him.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Nov 5, 2009 -> 10:22 AM) This move makes Beckham available if they deem that CJ and Nix can play second. Just saying. Teahan is fast enough as he is not a clogger. I think the Sox realized this season that the speed thing will not work at the cell. They need guys that can run the bases and have some power. This also adds a guy that can play multiple positions like Kotsay. This team needs subtle moves this offseason nothing major and I think they will be one of hte best teams in baseball. Wait...what? Do people still not get that Beckham is the face of the franchise the next 10-15 years?

Kyle Bellamy was added to the roster. He pitched an inning today. One walk. One K. Based on everything I've read, he may be on the fast track.

http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?si...perwin_scowin_1 Danks, CJ, and Morel playing today. Brandon Allen playing for Scottsdale.

QUOTE (oldsox @ Oct 31, 2009 -> 10:39 PM) Don't you think you are jumping the gun a bit on Mitchell? He hasn't done anything yet. Thus I used the word "if".

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Oct 28, 2009 -> 12:09 PM) That's great to see. I am really hoping we resign Pods for one year and Danks is ready to take over LF in 2011. Maybe Danks plays LF for a year, but I hope he's projecting to be the CF for the future. If things fall into place, I hope the outfield is Mitchell-Danks-Rios in 2012.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Oct 27, 2009 -> 04:39 PM) Can you ask him how tall he is?

http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?si...surwin_perwin_1 Cassel: 4 shutout innings Danks and CJ both have a hit so far tonight.

http://blogs.dailyherald.com/node/2810 Morel taking his place. Not yet on the roster.

http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?si...peswin_perwin_1 Danks and CJ playing again today. I heard Buddy Bell this morning on with Bruce Levine. He said CJ caught some in the Instructional League (I'm assuming he meant after this past regular season). He used the phrase "super sub", so who knows? Maybe he can make the team in 2010.

Homer for Danks today. His 2nd.

http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?si...perwin_pddwin_1 Danks and Retherford in the lineup today.

http://www.mlb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?si...msswin_perwin_1 Cassel got roughed up in the first inning today. Danks got a double in his first AB.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 01:08 PM) I see Retherford getting an invite to Spring Training, and I can't see him not making the most out of that chance. He's a natural hitter, god only knows where we'll play him though. Is Retherford up for be being placed on the 40-man next month?
