It’s the exact opposite of the usual fans that don’t want to see the prospects they give up in a big trade to excel too much and make the trade look bad for them. Because he's the closest to Pedroia and Youkilis. Kristian Campbell is too athletically gifted to easily identify with... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit too early to give up on him but Meidroth may make him positionless soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was in the 50s and sunny today. Took the dog for a walk and it was pretty nice in the sun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do it the other way or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't lived in the upper midwest in 25 years. I'm spoiled. I've largely forgotten how much of a slow burn early spring is. I b**** about our rain and horrific dark winters but April in the PNW is pretty damn nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of them matter unless he's at least a 650-675 ops hitter at least...really needs to be over 700 to not be a replacement player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleAleSox Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Sosa playing 1st and batting third. Add another to the great line of Chicago White Sox first basemen. Thomas, Konerko, Abreu, SOSA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Ha ha. This team is sooooo bad. Newcombe is one of the worst pitchers in baseball and they can’t get the ball out of the infield. Pathetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the pitch Sosa saw was a breaking ball and not a center center fastball like Vaughn watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
