Who's going to play SS for the White Sox if it's NOT Anderson?

 

Chill. Alot of players have bad defensive seasons, even the good ones. I doubt he'll be this bad next season. He's started to look like his old self before this game. I think that tragic death he experienced hurt his focus and metrics early on.

Taking strikes, swinging at balls. Hawk seems annoyed with the game plan tonight

Not to be insensitive, but the metrics were awful prior to the murder

I know. But remember earlier in the year and some ST, he had a family matter. Timmy just didn't look right all year.

Grienke was just fantastic.

And it's over.

Two tough games for Avi. Let's see how he responds tomorrow vs LHP

Just extremely sloppy, which is what his reputation was defensively in the minors.

Very sloppy. Where can we move him though? I can't picture him playing anywhere but short. Maybe catcher. I wonder if he has catching in his history.

CF is the obvious 2nd position for Anderson.

 

He's not enough of a power hitter for 3rd. I'd probably choose 2B as the 3rd option, because that's the most natural progression for players moved off that position.

 

That said, the same issues he has at SS (THIS YEAR) wouldn't change much at another position, he'd just have more margin for error because of the closer distance to first.

 

The other thing is that a lot of Anderson's mistakes can be "fixed" by having an Erik Hosmer type of glove over there.

 

 

 

12th draft pick still.

 

5 1/2 ahead of Padres, 2 1/2 ahead of Royals....4 games behind the Twins.

Saladino's really the only one qualified, he can't hit and he can't even stay healthy.

 

Moncada's a 2B first and 3b, second.

 

Leury Garcia??? Yolmer Sanchez doesn't have the arm.

 

 

I guess Robert/Anderson/Harper would be pretty good, though...

 

Get Torres for Quintana

Kieboom.... ;)

 

Doubt Anderson is going anywhere...

 

If they want Robertson....yeah

The Rays are two games from a wild card spot. I can't tell if you're a closet Cubs fan or just super pessimistic.

 

They may not be in 2 months though.
