Wow does Tank look awful

Conor needs to find playing time as a super-sub, only starting against right-handers. 3B, DH, 1B, 2B, LF are the places I'd try him. I really would not mind seeing him slide over to 2B, but I doubt he has the range for it. We do have a glut of middle infielders and I think trading Alexei would be a smart move - I'd also offload Beckham if you could get anything decent for him. You can then bring Gillaspie, Sanchez and Semien into 3B SS 2B and see what you have. Davidson I'd wait until at least next season, assuming at least one of those options fails. Leury Garcia needs some more time in the minors.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 14, 2014 -> 03:01 PM) This tells me that the Sox are looking at dealing a starting pitcher at the deadline.Gotta be Danks. Only other candidate who could bring anything back would be Quintana (Sale's not going anywhere), and I doubt they'd trade him for anything other that completely gutting some team's top prospect list.

@WojYahooNBA Chris Bosh is finalizing an agreement to return to Miami on a five-year, $118M deal, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

More drama in here right now than there is in the NBA.

Red Sox win wheeee.

I hate this bullpen.

Lol this bullpen. 4-3, 2nd and 3rd.

4-2, should be 4-3 except for that wall.

4-1

The hell was that?

Wow Ortiz is slow.

Hawkstradamus there. 7-3 Sox.

How can Flowers be SO LATE on 89 mph?

I'd imagine they're looking to trade De Aza and/or Viciedo to make room for Garcia, assuming they want him back in the majors. If there are no takers I would love a platoon, with Garcia taking over RF (maybe LF when Tank plays). I'm worried about him re-injuring himself though, and ruining his career. I suppose the Sox doctors know better than me, but still. One of the highlights of the next couple seasons for me is watching Garcia grow.

New posters must post a thread with their outlandish trade propositions and unrealistic complete lineup and starting rotation overhauls. This is a good starting point for ideas.

I love you right now Tyler Flowers. That will change, though.
