I take it Morel has been DFA'd?

 

The way Morel has been used this season, it feels like the Sox don't see him in their longterm future. Can't blame them for not wanting a singles-hitting 3B. His defense can only be so good.

 

Wakefield going for his 200th win tonight, btw.

Is Morel not worth anything? His offense has been bad this year, but with his defense and his history of hitting in the minors, couldn't we get something for him?

He hasn't really been DFA'd. Was being facetious since he rarely gets any playing time.

Brian Anderson says defense > pitcher-like offense

 

You're right.

Well Omar is 21-59 against Wakefield for his career with an .818 OPS

 

Also, you'd have to think this is the kind of pitcher Dunn would have no problems with right?

You'd think. That long swing should have plenty of time to catch up to the knuckleball.

Wakefield can hit 80 on his fastball so i wouldn't be too sure about Dunn's chances.

I don't even know why they are going to play this game. Boston is far too good for us. Might as well rest for three days and take three forfeits.

 

Yeah, I don't know why MLB even bothered playing the 2011 regular season - they just should have jumped ahead to the Red Sox / Phillies World Series and saved everyone a lot of time.

 

OK, on a serious note: we kick Boston's ass, that's why we're playing this game. We match up well against the Beaneaters.

A pitcher who has no idea where the ball's going to end up versus a batter who often swings and misses at straight-as-an-arrow pitches - this is not going to be pretty. In other words it's the #1 random pitcher in the league versus the #1 random hitter. The only way Dunn gets on base versus Wakefield is if he keeps the bat on his shoulders. If not, he could miss the ball by several feet instead of his usual several inches.

 

Lillibridge should be the DH tonight.
