WTF? I just realized Teahen was playing. Morel was 2-4 Friday, 1-3 (w/ a BB) yesterday. And has played stellar D, per usual.

 

It's another Sunday lineup. It would be nice if Teahen hit today since his defense isn't close to Morel.

What positions can Viciedo play competently? Third and left? Anyone think it's a bad idea to bring him up and have him DH?

He would play RF and DH. When in RF, Q would shift to LF. But I would love for him to just DH for two weeks while Dunn drinks Kaluha on his farm.

1st, Right, DH.

And I actually like Teahen, but whenever Morel plays well, he gets benched. Then loses momentum and struggles again.

Curveball on for Floyd.

Ozzie is a sucker for lefty righty match ups. Hes a dumbs***, do you expect different?

That's really a good idea. Phantom DL for Dunn and give Viciedo the at bats for two weeks and see what happens.

Let Dunn have a minor league rehab stint after he comes back. A full 3 weeks off. Is that allowed?

It would make more sense to DH Pierre and let Viciedo play in the OF. Improves the OF defense and prevents teams from taking an automatic extra base on hits to LF.

Dunn is now 2 for his last 30 with 19 strikeouts.

 

It's time to do SOMETHING. Bench him, make up an injury, anything.

It would be nice to see the stiffs he rewards with Sunday lineup playing time could actually come through. I don't think he deserves to be called a dumbs*** though.

Or continue to bat him third against righties...

I want to see Dayan out there before I agree he improves the defense.

Apparently moving him back into the 3 hole doesn't seem to be much of a spark. Go figure.

LOOK AT THAT ALL STAR LEG OUT THE INFIELD SINGLE

Indians/Tigers are both losing today, too...

CQ has the pressure on him to have a good week before the AS game.

If he went 0-for-25 or so, his batting average would be about .220, not all star numbers.

If he went 12-25 he'd be looking good.

I don't follow prospects at all, but I thought Viciedo's big liability was defense...was I incorrect?

I'd say he has absolutely no pressure, as they can't really take it away from him.

As a 3rd baseman it was. But in the outfield, his range is average, but his arm is plus. Apparently, making big strides in the D department.

Next 19 games against teams in this lousy division.

It's up to the Sox, really. Either stay pathetic against the division or make some noise.

 

This offense is abysmal still, showing no signs of life.

Does Rios ever take the first pitch?

Three lazy groundballs. And no working of the counts. Sigh...

He'd have our best OF arm.

 

And he could PROBABLY hit off of RODRIGO f***ING LOPEZ.

Well the first two innigs = joke.

Ughh... Rios, my PTC... Atleast attempt to look like you are trying..
