Pre-gaming it.

Saw a suggestion on MLBTR of a Lugo for Dontrelle trade just about straight-up with the Tigers. Any thoughts?

If you knew in 1985 or early 1986 that,

Bill Buckner would have made that 1986 World Series Game 6 error, and he (Buchner) was showing as many signs of failure as Lugo, would you have taken action then to get rid of the guy??

by NG on Sep 22, 2008 6:57 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

I'd trust that Lugo isn't going to be in any important games late when

the game is tied or there is a small lead and a need for steady defense.

I don't think Tito

Has shown any tendency towards the idea that he’ll just bench Lowrie when/if Lugo comes back (which probably won’t be until 2009 Spring Training anywya).

"Are you a real doctor, or a doctor like Dr. Pepper is a doctor?"

by Allen Chace on Sep 22, 2008 7:01 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

And the only way the Sox NEED to dump Lugo

Is if he shows a clear unwillingness to try a super-utility and PR role next season. If that’s the case, then yes, we’ll have to dump him and either eat some cash or take back a bad contract (Dontrelle Willis is a decent example) ourselves.

True. But he's a decent lefty pitcher.

by Drugs Delaney on Sep 22, 2008 7:05 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Well, I mean.

He’s a 28 year old catcher who has proven (more so than any other trade candidates talked about to take over for ‘Tek) that he can hit big-league pitching, knows the Sox’s system and may still have familiarity with some of our pitchers.

And then we’ve gotta think about what Cleveland might be convinced to want more than said 28 year old good-hitting catcher. High-ceiling OF? SP? And then we can’t even be sure Shoppach would really be worth one of those things.

Tough, though that’s the kind of price we’ve been talking about with Teagarden and co. Shoppach is older, but is less of a performance risk?

"Are you a real doctor, or a doctor like Dr. Pepper is a doctor?"

by Allen Chace on Sep 22, 2008 7:14 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Teagarden probably has a higher ceiling

But Shoppach can be an everyday catcher now. Any catcher will cost the Sox a lot.

by Drugs Delaney on Sep 22, 2008 7:16 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Wonder if the Sox would prefer the lower-risk.

If the Clevelands would part with Shoppach, then we could still trade him in a couple years IF Exposito moves quickly or the offense is good enough to carry what will seemingly be the mediocre bat (but quite potent glove) of Mark Wagner.

You know

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man

You know you can’t hold me forever
I didn’t sign up with you
I’m not a present for your friends to open
This boy’s too young to be singing the blues

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can’t plant me in your penthouse
I’m going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I’ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think you’ll do then
I bet that’ll shoot down your plane
It’ll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again

Maybe you’ll get a replacement
There’s plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain’t got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

Intentional walk for Bay

Loaded for Lowrie …

Step out again, please

I did step out

Came back and Lowrie was still sucking.

I thought that pitch was too close to take ( Lowrie)

"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

It's up to Kotsay

Why is Kotsay playing so much?

Good point

Is Coco hurt or shit?

I haven’t heard anything to suggest Coco is hurt.

That was pretty dumb

Big ‘fuck you’ to both Lowrie and Kotsay on this inning.

Not much fire-power after Bay

in this version of the line-up! That could pose quite a problem come playoff time I would think!

A loy of teams lack power at the bottom of the order

*A lot

There are a lot of bad teams too

The Sox line-up today is not that good. I really hope we can get Drew and Mikey back in time.

True and true

However, aside from Hisnke, Tampa has no power at the bottom of their order. The Angels don’t have a ton of pop at the bottom of their order either.

Yeah, I agree

But I don’t think the issue here is the lack of homers by the bottom of the order of the Sox. Behind Bay, there’s no one who gets on base well enough. I mean, on today’s line-up.
