Do the Sox really expect to have an effective offense with Adam Dunn and de Aza as their only two left handed hitters?
The Tigers will have Fielder, Martinez, Dirks, Avila, Boesch and are said to be considering Melky Cabrera as a free agent to replace Young.
The Royals will have Moustakas, Hosmer and Gordon.
The Twins have Mauer, Morneau, Doumit and Span
The Indians have Choo, Hafner, Santana, Kotchman, Cabrera, Brantley and Kipnis.
You would be hard pressed to find a competitive offense in the Majors which consisted of just two left handed hitters, especially the caliber of Dunn and de Aza. Baseball is a left handed game. The Sox will almost certainly add one left handed bat to their roster, if they don't bring A. J. back. The question is who.
If baseball was a left handed game then it would be a right handed game.
