I'd like to see the sox sign a SS like Cliff Pennington, someone who can hit for avg, has speed and plays good defense
I like the "Baseball Analysts" take on him comparing him with Russ Adams.---------
"The least-known player of the group is Cliff Pennington, known as a scrappy player that impresses scouts and statheads alike. Pennington has great contact skills, runs well, and shows very good defense up the middle. What power he has shown this season is unlikely to transfer over much professionally, though he could very well be hitting 30 doubles a year in the Bigs. I might go as far to say that Pennington is the most likely of the group to be a league-average player across the board in the Majors, as Cliff looks to be everything Russ Adams was coming out of college. "
I saw Pennington play last night, he looks pretty good
