GreenSox Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 10:23 AM) They have three - Saladino, Sanchez and Leury. With Leury being far and away the weakest of the bunch in overall value. His hitting is atrocious on a special level, and frankly his defense isn't that great either. He's got more speed than either of the others, but has no other advantages. No reason to keep him. Saladino and Sanchez are starters.

Jose Abreu Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 11:52 AM) Saladino and Sanchez are starters. Sanchez probably is, Saladino probably isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 11:52 AM) Saladino and Sanchez are starters. Not unless their offense improves, a lot. They had OPS+ of 68 and 66 respectively. Even Alexei was at 79. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Every time I see Michael Ynoa's name, I have to laugh, remembering that Rick Hahn said right after the Shark trade that he held out for Ynoa to be included, implying that he would not have made the trade without him.

NorthSideSox72 Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Nov 6, 2015 -> 12:38 PM) Sanchez probably is, Saladino probably isn't. Maybe marginally both, but really the team won't be starting both. Maybe not either. Micah is still very much in the mix at 2nd too. Leury's are a dime a dozen. If there's space for him, fine. If they need it, he should be first to go. No reason to keep your third best utility infielder protected if it means leaving an actual prospect exposed, or losing a chance at a more valuable player.

One would think so. But the Sox spent $8 million on 2 Leurys last year. And Phillips' aren't exactly in short supply. It's hard to believe that Robinson Leyer is up for Rule 5....he was in A ball in 2014. Must have been a really slow mover up the ladder. Sox moved him up fast last year, and to the pen if I recall, probably in anticipation of Rule 5- seeing of they could do anything with him. Even given the Sox org's enduring love for medocre veterans, I'd still think the Sox would protect a young hard thrower over Phillips.

NorthSideSox72 Posted November 20, 2015 Author Share Posted November 20, 2015 Wendelken I get. Surprised they didn't protect Tago. And Brennan has about half a season's innings in A+, seems like a wasted add to me. No one is picking him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
