2nd_city_saint787 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Teahen would have lead the sox in doubles last year. Translate that into a more home run friendly ball park and i agree with whomever said 20-25 home runs will be easy to reach. I say he easily puts up 25/70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chunk23 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 QUOTE (thedoctor @ Nov 6, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) am i wrong on this or isn't teahen a butcher at third? Butcher is probably an overstatement. Certainly not very good, but he's not terrible either. Besides, since when has this organization valued defense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he could get 20 HRs and 40 doubles...that would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Since PODS is not coming back our outfield has a hole, who will we fill it with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to say Crawford, but that's probably not the correct answer. If Teahen is playing 3B, that appears to take Figgins out of the running.

justBLAZE Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Teahen himself claims 3B being his 'comfort position' and said: "I can handle the outfield and play there, but third base is my No. 1 position." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have a void in the middle of the order. So right now the holes are at DH and the OF. Now holes in the infield. I'm curious as to what the Sox will do. Plus the bullpen. I still think we will move another contract and than allocate the funds saved to fill multiple spots (I'm looking at Paulie and Jenks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say that for sure (not afford), especially if we trade someone pricey. This is why its nice to have a stronger farm system now too - we have prospects we can move in a trade that are of some value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would move Quentin to RF then put a huge wall 290 feet out in left field like the Red Sox have so you don't need a good player out there.

LittleHurt05 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 QUOTE (TheBigHurtShallRiseAgain @ Nov 6, 2009 -> 12:22 PM) KW says Teahen is now the starting 3B and Beckham is starting second baseman. According to Cowley. hmmm, i like him much better at 3B then RF. Only two spots left to fill are a corner OF and a DH... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Coco Crisp for CF and lead-off? Then we just need a power hitting DH. Slide Rios over to Rf or LF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, but at this point, maybe his plus defense and a little speed would be enough? I have no idea who we will be able to put in that spot from the FA market. I think the most important spot to fill is the DH at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea who we will be able to put in that spot from the FA market. I think the most important spot to fill is the DH at this point. The offense could use two quality bats. If we go after a Royal, got and get Dejesus. I think we could use two more higher average, higher obp guys and Dejesus and maybe even Johnny Damon (depending on cost) could fit that bill nicely. Nick Johnson is another nice option that we've all discussed (health is a major concern though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
