greg775 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 If the National League is that much inferior we should do them a favor and trade Rios/Becks and Dunn to the NL. Oh wait, two of the three are untradeable cause we're paying them so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanne Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I look forward to call-ups and see what Kuhn's got...but then again...the school of thought of keeping him as far away from Walker as you can has merit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend of Nordhagen Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 QUOTE (SoxFanForever @ Aug 18, 2011 -> 09:55 PM) Flowers is basically our 2nd best hitter at this point. It's amazing what happens when some young guys get to actually, you know, come to the major leagues. In the same vein, I am absolutely convinced that if Dayan Viciedo were in this lineup, the effect on the rest of the team would be dramatic. The ball just jumps off his bat, and we sure as hell don't have anyone for whom that could be said, Konerko excepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Sox play this badly at home again you have to expect it. We're only halfway decent on the road. Was that intentional? Sure looked like it.

Takes a lot of pressure off of your players who might be tiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) Why did Sergio plunk that guy? I can't turn up the sound at work. The pitch was steered right in his back. Edited August 19, 2011 by greg775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may have been the biggest, saddest out of the season. The ease with which he can be had low and away OR up is scary. Can we see him, Dunn, Rios, Morel etc. with someone besides Walker???
