Jake Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I'd say Morel is probably okay to play in case of emergency and they don't want to call someone up just to sit on the bench for a game or two. Obviously this PK business was unforeseen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OilCan Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Adam Dunn's numbers for the month of May: .266 BA/.415 OBP/.672 SLG/1.087 OPS According to Baseball Reference Dot Com, they have a stat for GAME OUTCOME FOR TEAM. What a split. When the White Sox win: .323/.506/.813/1.321 When the White Sox lose: .182/.273/.390/.662 Wow. Here's something else. Adam Dunn when.... he's a first baseman (I know this is a small sample size, but STILL): 15 games played, .300/.478/.680/1.158 he's a DH: 25 games played, .225/.346/.551/.896 http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/...p;year=&t=b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Maybe he and Paulie will flip flop. Nah, Paulie is too established at first, but he definitely can give Paulie a rest two games a week maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 19, 2012 -> 04:58 PM) So they'll be playing two short (Paulie, Morel) for the next two days. I don't like it. Morel to DL, Hudson to active roster and likely to start Tuesday at 3B and hit 8th or 9th...probably 9th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't mean we're dependent on Dunn, necessarily (though it could). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vizquel had no arm left and he managed. Hudson will be okay. Will have to work on coming in on the bunt and throwing across the diamond from a new angle...but he's played 2B his whole career and had similar plays at 1B. Just the distance and angle of the throws was different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) How come every year KW acquires a guy either he or Oz just had to have? Manny, Juan (who I liked, but...), Oldmar, Teahen, the various grinders like Kotsay? We always acquire a guy who is destined to be a Sox before he retires.

flavum Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) Week ahead: T: Walters vs Floyd W: Diamond vs Sale R: Pavano (maybe) vs Humber F: Gomez vs Danks S: Lowe vs Peavy S: Jimenez vs Floyd Probably Moore vs Sale next Monday. And Shields vs Humber Tuesday. Further out, it looks like Felix Hernandez vs Danks on June 1. I wouldn't be sad to see the Sox flip Peavy and Danks. The schedule sets up to skip somebody on June 4 (the off day), and then the final week before the break could have Peavy pitch Sunday before the break instead of Danks. I'd rather have Peavy get another start and miss the All Star Game. Edited May 21, 2012 by flavum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have Peavy get another start and miss the All Star Game. Wow, those are some good looking matchups for the White Sox. I really selfishly want to see Peavy bulldogging it at the All-Star game, honestly. I'm trying to jam 3 years of memories into this season, so I need an epic All-Star game from him. He's got to be in the running to start the game, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
