I certainly wouldn't hate a Dunn/Konerko platoon, it makes a lot of sense.

Your backup 1B/DH/PH off the bench. I'll take it.

Seems like a waste of a roster spot to me. They both only play 1b, and Abreu should be there most of the time.

Let's hope not

The only problem is that you only get four bench players. If you have one that is only a catcher and one that is only a 1B/DH, it puts a lot of pressure on the other two to cover a lot of positions.

L. Garcia can play everything but catcher. Plus Jordan Danks.

This was my thought as well. With all the pitchers we keep nowadays, there's little room for anyone on the bench that doesn't have some versatility.

Need room for Gillaspie and Keppinger too

Beckham wedding- November 9

 

Konerko decision--before or after?

Thanks but no thanks. Time to turn the page.

Leury(or Beckham if Semien is the starter at 2B) can play all 3 INF spots, and Danks can play all 3 OF spots.

 

The Kepp/Gillaspie platoon would have to be blown up though, which everyone wants anyway.

 

EDIT: man lately everything I've been saying already gets said while I'm in the process of posting.

Ha, I just take too much time checking the validity of what I'm saying....Looked up to see if Leury played 3B, and also looked to see if Kepp has played any SS the last few years, he hasn't.

I wonder if Konerko would be willing to take an "Organizational hitting coach" job next year. Not the team hitting coach but one overseeing the full system.

When Konerko is done playing, the only time we're going to see him for at least two years is the weekend they retire his number.

 

No way he doesn't get away from the game for a while.

I wish I had been paying attention, I totally would have said that I'm really good at doing this at the exact same time you were posting.

Toss Dunn out in left-field.

 

There is also a chance to trade Dunn and eat salary if it means Konerko coming back.

 

I really do not care either way but there is the White Sox loyalty.

If you're eating salary to move someone, make it Keppinger. Less salary to eat.

I'd rather play Abreu at 3B than put Dunn in LF, but to be clear, I don't wanna do either.

That is your first mistake. Say whatever comes to mind and check facts later.

Don't check facts. Present the information in a convincing fashion and make s*** up as you go.

But, but, everyone will make fun of me :crying

 

I should just check the facts first instead of looking it up mid reply.

If we aren't making fun of each other, what will we post about?
