Chisoxfn Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Pierre is the Sox leadoff hitter and you don't make drastic changes 10 games into the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His role has to be diminished. Pierre is still a lifetime .300 hitter with a career .335 OBP. That means over 600 ABs he will get one base 200 times. Its been 6 games and his first stint in the AL, be patient we will need him if we are going to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote4Pedro Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 QUOTE (Marty34 @ Apr 14, 2010 -> 06:01 PM) Kotsay hurts the lineup less than Pierre. kotsay cant put us in scoring position if he gets a single....pierre has speed and takes alot of pitches. If you put Kotsay at leadoff he's going to get out just as much as pierre has if not more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenksycat Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I like it. Although I'd probably add Buehrle as the DH because of that HR he hit last year, and then maybe call up lilibridge to put in at catcher so we can get some more speed since he's faster than AJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Pierre will normalize and be a ~300/330 or so hitter. Kotsay is likely to be much worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest reason that Pierre has a seemingly guaranteed spot in the lineup is because they're obligated to pay him $8M over the next 2 years.

hogan873 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I was and still am surprised at the lack of support for Pierre. He's not the ideal lead-off guy, but he is a career .300 hitter, and he's got speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got us a run in the first game of the season, but after that? Of course you must get on base first in order to utilize that speed right?
