caulfield12 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 25, 2014 -> 09:14 PM) Why not move Gillaspie to second base? He's a good hitter but has no HR power at all. So you let him play second base for the next 10 years and get a third baseman. Because he probably can't play the position any better than Mark Teahen. And because we have 3-4 middle infield prospects at that position already, not to mention we still have to trade Gordon Beckham first.

Going to be a nightmare for them...unless they win this game. We NEVER EVER play well at Rogers Center. It's one of the well-known laws of Sox baseball. They won't be in bed until 5 a.m. if they are lucky. What time is the game on Thursday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Leroy Garcia is coming on as a PRer. Nice job, Orioles' radio. Well, it's getting late there. Actually, that's what he told the White Sox broadcasters....didn't realize that, as it's not the traditional Spanish pronunciation for that name. Of course, we've also gone from Al-uh-say Ramirez to Alexi. Edited June 26, 2014 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You trade Beckham for whatever you can get at the trade deadline. Gillaspie plays second the rest of the year when the standings don't matter and learns the position. Semien plays third for the rest of this season, but obviously isn't the answer. So we try again to acquire a strong third baseman in the offseason. If we trade Lexi, let L. Garcia play ss the rest of the year til that Anderson guy takes over next year. Edited June 26, 2014 by greg775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Micah Johnson and Carlos Sanchez to also somehow find playing time for, they're not going to move Gillapsie until Davidson's play at Charlotte forces them to. At any rate, there's just no way they would move Conor in the middle of the season to a middle infield position. It would be a complete and utter disaster of epic proportions.
