If it was Kemp for OC straight up, I'd probably say no as well. Kemp would have no spot on the field and Juan Uribe would be our SS the rest of the year.

 

or you trade for Brian Roberts, and move Ramirez to SS. Kemp can play CF. It's not going to happen though, just thought it was interesting.

Buster Olney made mention last night that the Dodgers were trying to get OC from the Sox, and Matt Kemp was the possible bait. The Sox said no. If that's true, I might cry myself to sleep.

that would seal colletti's fate

What would we have to give Baltimore? Poreda, Broadway, Getz, and OC? I might do that...

 

We'd have:

Roberts 2B

AJ C

Q LF

Dye RF

Thome DH

Walnuts 1B

Swish CF

Crede 3B

Ramirez SS

Wait, you're willing to move 4 players for Roberts, but not OC for Kemp?

Baker perfect through 5.

Check that, everyone looks terrible at the plate right now.

Kemp would have nowhere to play if it was just for OC. We'd have to involve Swisher or Konerko in the deal.

 

And now that Twins PG is through 5.

He (should) start in CF.

Swish has the Billy Madison song when he comes to the plate now- unless it's just for today because it's 1983 day.

Delmon Young has 8 hits in the series with the Rangers.

 

Let's go Sox, we need this one.

He (should) start in CF.

Then we'd have Anderson, Wise, and Swisher all riding the pine behind him. IMO, we'd have to give them Konerko/Swisher and OC for Kemp, perferrably Konerko, just because I love Swish's OBP and his defense at 1B.

Wise would go down, and one of Richar or Getz would come up.

 

And why would we give them Swish or Konerko if they're offering Kemp for OC straight up?

Here comes Joe to end this little run....

Nice to see Swisher abandoned his stance from Friday and Saturday. He looks much better today.

at least Konerko singled, but it sucks it's with 2 outs.

crede's uppercut swing on every single type of pitch makes me want to vomit

shorten the swing, look for a base hit, not a home run swing turned into a pop up.

Crede's average now down to .257.. wow

no way Crede should've been an all star, I'd be mad too if I was Mike Lowell.

3-2 to crede

 

here comes the fastball pop-up

 

or a homerun B)
