I don't have enough GB from my internet provider to post enough rolleyes gifs to give that the appropriate response.

I'd still hire the guy as player/manager. He can pinch hit a bit. He's probably the smartest player the Sox have ever had. Chicago loves the hell out of him. If Pete Rose could be a good player manager so could AJ:)


NOBODY AT THE CLUB HOUSE LIKES HIM!!! HE WAS A D***! Why do Chicago fans have such boner for a guy who was barely over average and had terrible defense against runners

AJ isn't good anymore.

Guys, AJ, and Buehrle, aren't coming back. Get the **** over it.

its not about mb. AJ would be the best back up option for us and he can be a veteran presence for the team and the pitchers

AJ will never be around as long as RV is managing. The two never got along.

Barring an upgrade, the catchers are Flowers, Brantly & Kottaras, with the latter battling as the backup.

I hate the thought of another season of Flowers but Hahn can't fix everything in the offseason.

Though maybe, he'll give us Sox fans a miracle and land us an upgrade behind the plate.

Why? Because AJ knew a shit load more about baseball than Robin? A cigar store Indian has more gumption and drive than Robin Ventura.

Lot of work left to do.

Another RH SP.
Platoon partner with Gillaspie (Davidson?)
I'd like another bullpen arm
A better utility man than L. Garcia
Stop gap 2B

Rotation after #3 is questionable
After LaRoche the line up doesn't have a definitive guy who can give you 100+ wRC+/OPS+ (whichever you prefer).
Defence is still shit

We're still an 83 to 85 win team right meow.

A greatly renewed interest in beating the shit out of the cubs this summer...not to mention the tigers, royals, Indians and twins et al.


I'm more concerned beating the Pussies, Twinkies, Queens, and Jndians than the Cubs.

exactly. the whole 4 games is a PR thing for the city and the meatballios. we have to take care of our division opponents that we face all year long if we expect to win anything. i take no stock in the crosstown series. it lost its flavor after we won the WS than both teams being bad after that was icing on the cake.

Sox beating the AL Central is way more important if we wanna see October baseball again.

If they can't trade Viciedo for someone worthwhile, I want the guy to have three gloves for this team, Outfield, 3B, and 1B. I do not want the Sox to shit can this guy who averaged 20 home runs in his career thus far and is 25 years old. If they get fair value for him then so be it, but I think that he was a whipping boy for a team which wasn't very good offensively in the first place.

Utility players are supposed to be good at defence.

He isn't a utility player. He is still a prospect with three years of major league experience. He just may be a late bloomer for some team. It has happened before.
