Jake Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Apr 7, 2012 -> 05:34 PM) Flowers is catching and hitting 7th. Heard this on the radio. AJ will not be happy, but I would like to see us get something out of T-Flow. He has the ceiling of a RH Adam Dunn. If he can drop 30 bombs and keep K's under 200, that'd be nice from an MLB catcher. Lots of if's, but that's why he gets spot starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffro2525 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 This line-up just looks pretty bad. 5-9 of Rios-Lexi-Flowers-Morel-Beckham looks pretty gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the lineup? Now they move Morel? He should have never been in the second spot to begin with. Don't mess him up? White Sox management seems very too secretive lately. What is going on? Have they named a closer yet? I have the right to know. Yeah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah! i don't think we're going to HAVE a closer. think he's gonna play the matchups to begin the season and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said, he certainly has the potential to be an above average offensive catcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's game 2 of the season. Viciedo isn't going to play all 162. I don't have any problem with letting him sit tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any problem with letting him sit tonight. That's the point. Vs a lefty. If they wanted to get Lillibridge in a game, 2nd or 3rd would have been the way to go.

sunofgold Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) Yeah, but the lineup changed. Was it erroneous reporting or did Ventura change the lineup? Then the question is: why did he change the lineup? I can only speculate..Viciedo has a minor injury (thus a precautionary move). Viciedo got hot at the end of spring training and hit a double yesterday. Really no reason to rest him here.

Iguchicago Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I thought I saw Viciedo foul a ball off himself in one of his at bats yesterday and looked in pain. I could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
