Not sure what there was to argue about there, definitely a balk.

Good start

For those who have seen both Melky and Eaton play right, how did they look? Who would you say should be the primary LF and primary RF on opening day?

Saladino with the boot costing the sox a run. Q was luck to get out of that inning only giving up 2 runs.

There's more foul ground and room out in LF at the Cell no? If so, then you put Eaton there as his range, even with his bad jumps, is way better than Melky's.

lf vs rf. this is a great debate and have always been of interest to me. i haven't had this debate since the late 80's.

 

so my assumption has always been more hitters are right handed and of those the power hitter comes into play. also for me, i have always taken in account that you have those pull hitters to deal with.

 

so the whole lf will have to have better range factor and the make the those recovery action or instinct for those pull hitters.

 

the rf will need to have the stronger arm, because he makes longer throws, and his reaction time will be help b/c in most fields, there is a wall there for balls to bounce back into the field.

 

the main debate is to have the stronger arm vs the quickness to cover more.

Looks like a typical Quintana outcome.

Austin Jackson Grand Slam. Nice!

How much money did they give him again?

Turner blows. Carroll is much more deserving of a roster spot than him.

$1.5 mill. Someone will claim him or we'll release him I'm sure. That amount is nothing.

I still think Turner ends up starting in Charlotte. He'll clear waivers and go down.

Which is better than him just being released I supoose.

If everything else is equal, the lefty should be in LF, and the righty should be in RF. Keeps the glove hand closer to the foul line, where the tougher plays are.

i will be honest, i have never thought of that. but that may be the ideal situation.

The took a buy low chance on Turner. Didn't work and it happens.

but the sox always have done something like that.

 

this season as it stands is not the time to do that kind of bargain shopping, not when they assembled a great core to succeed. i understand the latos signing, esp since i was b****ing on signing him since the beginning of the off season. but the possibility of him being hurt changes it.

 

is ej the answer no, is turner the answer, no. so it will need to be carroll. can fulmer do a rodon ??? again it falls on carroll.

 

so what will happen if the season starts and latos is still hurting????

But that doesn't help our situation if it is assumed Melky and Eaton will be at the corners since both throw left handed.
