We are gone geese. I hope in the offseason they fix these problems. Find a new hitting coach and I hope by season's end the Joe Crede experiment is over. Keep Pods, Rowand, Iguchi, and Pierznski. I still have to see how Konerko is the rest of the way to decide on him. Dye is boarderline but I guess acceptable. So I think they must upgrade at 3rd, SS, and find a new DH. Everett is OK but we need something more that can be a powerful force at DH like a Griffey caliber player. Dont know who would be available but something like this.

If this team chokes, and doesn't make the playoffs, this offseason would be more about who we get rid of than who we add. We don't have a lot of money to spend.

How do you figure that? We have had a projected 20% increase in attendance and we are losing a bunch of salaries after this season. We are looking at a big bump in payroll.

And not a good off-season to use it. Like Toronto, who are going to have big increases in payroll for the next few years, the Sox may have to add that salary through a trade if they miss out on the likes of Furcal and Burnett.
