G. Beckham to 2nd, Dye Option Declined, Other Sox News

[Card Magnet]

Since I'm a Sox fan and didn't see this posted - here it is. There's a link to the full story, and here's a summary clip.

Chris Getz and Josh Fields are now Royals, Mark Teahen is now the White Sox starting third baseman, Jermaine Dye is all but gone, talks with free agent-to-be Scott Podsednik have disintegrated, and Gordon Beckham is now the new starting second baseman.

now now


I fixed that error


FCB wasn't overloaded, I am just tinkering with a new style. That new style wasn't properly closing mysql sessions and every time someone said hey, new style and switched to it, it borked the board up.

3rd base. He was first a SSuntil he hit AAA.

3rd base. He was first a SSuntil he hit AAA.

He played 3B in AA too. I saw him play a double header and played 3B the first game and SS the second game.

I didn't know that. I thought he was a straight SS until he hit Charlotte.

Ugh, i hope Getz gets playing time in KC.

Good Luck Josh Fields! Pull your game together!

(Any Royals fans interested in a KILLER Josh Fields collection? - CMB if yes)

If the Royals get Fields who is a 3B...where is Alex Gordon going? Or is Fields organizational fodder?

Gordon Beckham the next Ryne Sandberg with fewer steals but could have a better overall hitting career.

Wait....wait....


Beckham (with only a years experience under his belt in the bigs) is going to have a better career than Sandberg, a HOF 2nd baseman?

A bit premature to make that bold statement, don't ya think?


Hell, he could have a career ending injury tomorrow! Give him at least 6 years until you start making those comparisons lol.
