Heads22 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I'd really like to give Jake a month before we make any sort of judgment on his being "back" or not. First game back in the bigs, he's gonna have some adrenaline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ May 11, 2011 -> 10:29 PM) Nice play by Alexei. Peavy's velocity is better than expected, but his slider has nothing on it. Really? Everytime I've looked it has been at about 91, which is 3-4 MPH slower than he used to be.

Morel, power defense average. Aj average and fielding. Of course it's far easier to pay no attention to a players track record or ability and stress over right now. Which is why I conclude from the same standard that Dunn and Beckham are also no tool players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thad Bosley Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Well, the Sox are in the Greater Los Angeles area. Just take Pierre back to Dodger Stadium where we found him, put him on the doorstep, ring the doorbell, and then run like H-E-DOUBLE-TOOTHPICK!

fathom Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 At this point, it almost seems it's in our best interest for Pierre to go 0 for his next 40 and make the decision easier for KW (and not Ozzie). Again, you can even consider an injury to him, as he's the anti-Peavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 An intelligent team would release the zero tool player. Bring up Viciedo put him in left. Leadoff with Alexei. But our manager would rather wait for his NL offense to materialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
