Yeah, he's playing well.

 

But, we chose Daubach and Rios for our back-up roles. I think we need to give them a few more AB's before we start second guessing.

it was second guessing per se but a group of us wanted him and wondered at the time if he was worth the money. however we started to hear about his attitude and i am still wondering if that was not the sox doing in justifing that picking him up.

3.7 mil

$3.7M a year?

 

I don't think the Sox would have given him that much. Hell, we got Loaiza, Daubach, Rios, White, and Gordon for that much.

I don't think he will stay this hot all year but I still think he would have helped this team out a lot. Still wish we would have picked him up.

i do too, but the 3.7 mil is what i am wondering about. but oh well, i will keep tabs on him this season.

I got to thinking about my comment about all the guys we got in the off-season (I mentioned Daubach, Rios, White, Gordon, and Loaiza) costing about as much as we would have had to give Jose Cruz, which was $3.7M.

 

I decided to check the accuracy of that...

 

Daubach -- $450,000

Rios -- $450,000

Loaiza -- $500,000

Gordon -- $1,400,000

White -- $600,000

 

That's a total of $3.4M (not factoring in the incentives that I know Loaiza has and I think Daubach has).

 

That's money VERY wisely spent IMO. The Sox may be cheap, but this season we definitely are getting the most for our money talent-wise. Hopefully that talent will reach its potential.

Very true, but a hot hitter that can bat lefty and plays a great center field sure would be nice right about now.

what needed to happen was we trade carlos lee and his 4.2 million off to whoever..preferable for a starting pitcher better than jon garland...then we sign cruz and we would have that starting pitcher at a net 500k savings off his salary
