chw42 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 29, 2012 -> 04:47 PM) He's significantly better at drawing a walk than Alexei. Not sure if that is because his eye is so much better or if pitchers are just less afraid to attack Alexei. I also think that Alexei puts balls in play at a higher rate than Dayan, but I'm not sure. And Alexei flies out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 29, 2012 -> 09:46 PM) I think you're extremely wrong. Soriano's contract is significantly worse. There are some big market teams that will be in the hunt for a CF. If it's possible to trade him, then I think the Sox will be all in to do so. We couldn't make playoffs even with him in the MVP conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We couldn't make playoffs even with him in the MVP conversation. That makes no sense. He was one of the few reasons they were in contention. If Konerko doesn't tank, then they probably make the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
