Lillibridge's BB/K is now 1/13 after his 2 Ks today. People actually thought he was a candidate to leadoff?

after seeing the sox play nix at SS today, i think lillibridge is destined for AAA...

Threw the bat at the ball and it went 300 feet foul.

Viciedo is really chasing these sliders.

Yeah, I really don't like Viciedo's approach. He needs a full year of minor league ball.

viciedo definitely needs a bit of seasoning...

Backwards K. Not a great at bat. His ass jumps out on breaking balls.

I wouldn't mind Coop and Walker taking Poreda and Viciedo aside and just have AP throw live sliders to him for an hour. It might help both of them.

Getz not real happy about that swing.

A full year in the minors would probably be more effective.

Flowers looks clueless looking at strike 3

I agree the kid's AA bound

He plays good defense at 3 positions, thats why he has a good chance to make the team.

I think we're seeing Nix at SS because Lillibridge isn't hitting. Can't afford more dead wood on the bench when all 3 of your CF candidates and maybe backup catcher aren't recognized as hitters either.

When are the cuts coming? I know they cut four guys last week, but they still have 28 more cuts to come.

it was pretty ugly, which got me wondering what his minor league splits vs. lefties were....and he actually has hit lefties better in his career than righties

i was really high on flowers (and not on grass) and still am, but he sure hasn't looked like a guy who hit 12 bombs or whatever it was in the AFL

Hay, Baseball America has the Sox signing Tim Raines JR.

He hasnt been above A ball, he's going to take some time to develop.

Nix def looks better at the plate than Lilli

I was a Lillibridge fan when we got this kid. I'm done with him now.

I'm with you.

Looks like Kroeger shaken up on a foul tip, not exactly sure where, but somewhere on his leg. He is taking awhile to recover.

Crede 3-3 today with a double and 2 run HR . Still hitting .185 so far. Swisher 3-4 all singles but 3 rbi now hitting .222 . Maier just crushes one way out to right 11-5 Royals.

An hours worth of sliders from your best pitching prospect would not be a good thing. That could be over 100 breaking balls in a row .

15 minutes then.

Every hitter in baseball looks ugly swinging many times in the course of a season. I'm glad you looked up his splits , you just can't look at one at bat and make any kind of judgements. Well you can they're just not likely to be very accurate.
