all rumors on players and trades per waiver claims
I don't get going after bench help. Only bench help the Sox would need is a utility guy to replace Hudson.
what im saying is we need a player that can fill in for ramirez. he cant play everyday and combine wear of a season and him possibly still a bit ouchy from the collision he could drop off. hudson is what he is, but im fine with him being able to play good defense at 2b to give gordon a break. im kinda surprised bacon hasnt gotten a day off and have hudson play once a week or so. I do wish johnson was up here as well as he would be a good bench guy. the last time he played the outfield was in 2010 maybe a few games in charlotte in the outfield would make him more valuable as a bench guy. just speculating
Don't understand why you guys want Johnson up. Just don't get it. Danks can play all fields and there are three players who can play first base. I'd be fine with getting a player who could play SS/2B to replace Hudson and give some rest to those guys.
A lefthanded stick is always nice to have off the bench. he isnt great but he is doing ok in AAA with 23 hrs and a .405 OBP....dont know how it will transfer here but its a stick.
Im still shocked that hudson hasnt been DFAd
I understand that. But Dunn and Konerko aren't doing bad right now.
I agree.
konerkos wrist may be better hence his swing for power looks ALOT better. im happy with what im seeing.
WHen Paulie had the wrist cleanup they said at the time there would be no lasting affects for this season. What makes us think his slump was wrist realted and if it was what caused him to be healed to go on this terror of late?
per CafradoMost everyone will be put on trade waivers over the next few weeks. Today it was Nick Punto and Carl Crawford.
Carl Crawford placed on waivers
per Cafrado
Not really "waiver" wire but Derek Lowe was DFA'd.
Ground ball pitcher, good infield defense, think we should take a look?
there would be no use for Scotty Pods.
