Lawrie is better, and younger.

They are pretty much the same age, however, Saladino has shown steady improvement in his first two seasons in this league (this being his second year). That said, he obviously has the benefit of playing a platoon role which may help inflate his standalone cause. Defensively Tyler is the superior player and offensively, Tyler has shown some positive trends. Lawrie definitely has the more proven track record and slightly higher OPS from the offensive perspective. Tyler is also under team control for a while and while both have the benefit of being able to play multiple positions, Tyler can play 3B / SS / 2B and play them well. Basically put, I see more upside giving Tyler more playing time then Lawrie, given overall control (might as well see what we have, is it a darn good back-up or do we have a good serviceable starter).

Albers is comically bad....Ventura can't be gone soon enough

 

 

Actually, its Hahn who needs to go the most since he's the reason why Albers is still on the team.

Sox are now 21-43 at Comerica since the start of the 2010 season. Ventura is 14-32. And I understand the Sox don't have a lot of choices but you look at the ERA's of the pitchers they used tonight...Ranaudo 8.7; Albers 6.1; Turner 7.7

 

YIKES!
