Danks doesn't have a strike out problem from what little I've seen of him though, he usually manages to put the bat on the ball. I'd just let him swing

 

It's such a weak swing though. Seems very prone to popping it up to center due to very little torque on his swing. I am confident in saying that in a pennant race, you better not try and play him and Viciedo at the same time for a week. That would seem like a foolish plan.

You wonder how he hit for all that power in AAA this year.

Well, it is the same league where Dan Johnson has an OPS over .900 :)

 

Dan Johnson's performance against righties this year has been fantastic. 1.023 OPS with 18 more walks than strikeouts. Give him a try KW!

Absolutely, especially if they're not going to try and get some more offense into Konerko's spot for the next week. Danks is nothing more than a late inning defensive replacement.

 

I don't know what they should do honestly. Feels like a lot of bad options all around right now. I don't want to see Morel back up unless they get rid of Hudson or Olmedo.
