Konerko ranks dead last in zone rating. I am thinking for a first baseman zone rating is more important than range factor. I will agree with you that konerko is a top 3 1st baseman in the american league.
I got that, but i don't think we were overated. Most predicted a 2nd or 3rd place finish for us, including myself. I predicted second place for the sox this year.
There was also a big rumor valentin for guillen straight up. Now that we look back on it that would have been an excellent trade. But who ever knew guillen was gonna absolutely explode.
That would be the wisest choice. But who knows sometimes players do silly things. I highly doubt he can prove he is healthy in enough time to test free agency.
Nothing more has really been said other than this. But it is pretty old.

Eddie Guardado (shoulder) and Joel Pineiro (elbow) both had very positive throwing sessions yesterday.
Neither experienced any problems throwing from flat ground from 60 feet. Both Guardado and Pineiro are slated to pitch in the Fall Instructional League in Arizona next month.

Since typically a right fielder is suppose to have pretty good power numbers, all they would have to do is slide rowand over to right field. Then hairston would have power numbers comparable to the majority of center fielders in baseball.
