2nd_city_saint787 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I certainly wouldn't hate a Dunn/Konerko platoon, it makes a lot of sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a waste of a roster spot to me. They both only play 1b, and Abreu should be there most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabiness42 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 The only problem is that you only get four bench players. If you have one that is only a catcher and one that is only a 1B/DH, it puts a lot of pressure on the other two to cover a lot of positions.

With all the pitchers we keep nowadays, there's little room for anyone on the bench that doesn't have some versatility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nd_city_saint787 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Leury(or Beckham if Semien is the starter at 2B) can play all 3 INF spots, and Danks can play all 3 OF spots. The Kepp/Gillaspie platoon would have to be blown up though, which everyone wants anyway. EDIT: man lately everything I've been saying already gets said while I'm in the process of posting.

Ha, I just take too much time checking the validity of what I'm saying....Looked up to see if Leury played 3B, and also looked to see if Kepp has played any SS the last few years, he hasn't.

Balta1701 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I wonder if Konerko would be willing to take an "Organizational hitting coach" job next year. Not the team hitting coach but one overseeing the full system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the team hitting coach but one overseeing the full system. When Konerko is done playing, the only time we're going to see him for at least two years is the weekend they retire his number. No way he doesn't get away from the game for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Toss Dunn out in left-field. There is also a chance to trade Dunn and eat salary if it means Konerko coming back. I really do not care either way but there is the White Sox loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather play Abreu at 3B than put Dunn in LF, but to be clear, I don't wanna do either. Edited October 18, 2013 by scs787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
