RockRaines Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 QUOTE(beck72 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 10:46 AM) Who knows if this trade will work out, but Chavez is what the sox need. His numbers vs. RHP over the last three years [.293/.384/.554] would help the sox address their biggest weakness---hitting RHP. [Last time I checked, the so were 12th in the AL vs RHP---with a low avg, obp and slg--- and 3rd vs. LHP]. And good to great RHP is what the Sox would face in the playoffs if they make it there. that is exctly what we need, say yes to this trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 QUOTE(Cubs Suck23 @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 04:51 PM) Im totally shocked that reinsdorf will add 10 mil to our payroll... It wouldn't add up to 10 mil due to the subtractions of Crede and then Konerko. Plus, Reinsdorf has been great about our payroll, so theres no real reason to complain.

Cubs Suck23 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 I hope the trade gets done would love to see Chavez on the Sox..  Do you think it might even be a bigger trade than just Chavez coming. I read that Eric Byrnes&barry Zito will also get traded  Maybe Crede,BMac and Anderson for Chavez&Zito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beck72 Posted June 2, 2005 Share Posted June 2, 2005 Per ESPN, as of today, in the AL vs. RHP, the sox are 13th in avg, 14th in OBP, 13th in SLG, 11th in Runs, and 12th in XBH. Even if /when Dye, PK, Frank, et al catch fire, most guys have hit lower vs RHP in their careers. Getting an everyday player who hurts RHP would help lift the Sox offense. If he's healthy, no doubt Chavez would be an improvement over Crede vs RHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has Barry Bonds done this season to warrant a HOF consideration, come on man, its more than just 2 months of baseball that proves worth. Second, adding a 4 time gold glover and all-star 3B for an unproven pitching prospect makes alot of sense, thanks though.

So replacing Crede's Rh bat, his only pull hitting, and replacing it with a better fielding 3B who can hit to all fields, not clog the bases hit for a better avg, OBP, SLG OPS, and better power numbers is the option, sounds good to me.

One position player, one pitcher + Crede. For a guy of Chavez's caliber, locked up for four more years, top talent would need to be traded.  Also, Chavez would be a good long term fit to go along with the sox young guys--Rowand, Uribe, and guys who may stay on a few more yrs--Pods, AJ, Iguchi. Chavez wouldn't just be a short term fix but part of the sox long term plans as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
