soxfan420 Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 barry larkin is old but can still has an obp of .350 or so and is cheap im pretty sure he could give ss/2b a day off or so, so valdez can get his ab in AAA until we know if willy can do his job well or not.

Leonard Zelig Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Would that mean that he could be the only other pickup?(assuming no more moves) There's not really much space on the roster. Frank pending... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 hey 420, why not start one thread about middle infielders instead of three? just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he could fit, but when Frank comes back somebody goes. My point was, would he be our only addition? Would he be ok with that role?  Of course none of this matters until we see if there are more moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
