I’m not saying he will be a gold glover but seems much more fluid turning dp’s than Murph. There is no doubt he can play the position now and well the issues are going to start when he starts filling out that frame of his.But we can play him at 2nd for the next couple of years and worry about it when we have to. He has a big body when he fills out that frame his range may be to limited & it may be harder for him 2 turn 2. However, if he could stick at second which im hoping he will be a monster.

The division is still open and the Sox competed till the very end with the Tigers last season. I don’t see them in a position to dump salary.

I hear Stanton has attitude problems.

There’s two things I want to know: Would the White Sox be willing to eat a portion of his contract like the Cubs are willing to do with Soriano and what else would they want back?

There’s a big difference between not league leading and god-awful. There’s a decent chance he can stick at third, I exaggerated a bit there.

He may not have league leading range at 2B, but entirely possible he will have enough to get by there. Certainly not an issue at 3B.

He’s slow as hell, I doubt he’ll even be able to handle 3rd. (that means no outfield either)

As for Flores, I would love to see that happen, but it is highly doubtful.

If Murphy does not break camp with the team due to injury, you will probably see Valdespin play some second, same goes for Brandon Hicks, and probably Reese havens before you will see Flores.

Flores took parts of three seasons to get out of single-a, and only has a half a season at double-a under his belt. He won’t skip Triple-A all together

You will see Murphy Traded to an American league team. Mind you I said if but, you can quote me on it when it happens. Flores can do it..

1) Valdespin will never be given 500 ab’s to see what he is truly capable of.
2) Valdespin’s maturity issues will never allow him to get 500 ab’s…
