daa84 Posted March 16, 2009 Author Share Posted March 16, 2009 QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 16, 2009 -> 04:50 PM) Lillibridge's BB/K is now 1/13 after his 2 Ks today. People actually thought he was a candidate to leadoff? after seeing the sox play nix at SS today, i think lillibridge is destined for AAA...

RockRaines Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Threw the bat at the ball and it went 300 feet foul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yeah, I really don't like Viciedo's approach. He needs a full year of minor league ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) I wouldn't mind Coop and Walker taking Poreda and Viciedo aside and just have AP throw live sliders to him for an hour. It might help both of them. Edited March 16, 2009 by Thunderbolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 16, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) He plays good defense at 3 positions, thats why he has a good chance to make the team. I think we're seeing Nix at SS because Lillibridge isn't hitting. Can't afford more dead wood on the bench when all 3 of your CF candidates and maybe backup catcher aren't recognized as hitters either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigruss Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Looks like Kroeger shaken up on a foul tip, not exactly sure where, but somewhere on his leg. He is taking awhile to recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Crede 3-3 today with a double and 2 run HR . Still hitting .185 so far. Swisher 3-4 all singles but 3 rbi now hitting .222 .

It might help both of them. An hours worth of sliders from your best pitching prospect would not be a good thing. That could be over 100 breaking balls in a row .

I'm glad you looked up his splits , you just can't look at one at bat and make any kind of judgements. Well you can they're just not likely to be very accurate.
