Damn this sucks. Are we actually realistically considering Cairo, EY, and Womack? Please this is getting worse by the minute. IF this is what I have to look forward to then I am just going to give up on the season right now. I am one of the most optimistic fans, but that would really suck. I can't believe that is what we are actually wishing for. PUKE!!!!!!!! :puke

The key to getting someone besides Uribe or Willie for SS or 2B, is would they be better than what the Sox already have. Uribe should be able to post similar numbers. [i don't think Uribe was fully prepared to play 150 games. With a better offseason focus, conditioning etc. Uribe should be able to repeat his 2004 season if not improve]. Willie should also improve on his 1st season [esp his offense, bunting, making hard contact]. With his speed and defense, few FA guys out there would be a definite upgrade, and worth the big $. The Sox have two young guys to start at these positions, along with Crede at 3rd. While it's a gamble and risky to let them play it out, the sox then have money to put into other positions, like SP, maybe C like Kendall, the bullpen, Rf, etc.

 

It's early and I'm not overly concerned. The teams that have moved on deal so far have overpaid big time.

I'm sorry Addy, but as it is shaking out, Willie "MVP" Harris will be the Sox starting 2nd baseman next year.

Maybe I wouldn't balk at that so much if Willie would steal a f***ing base every now and again. It seemed like Konerko stole bases more often than he did.
