I think I'd settle for him being to spoil sliders low and away. We know "approach" is born and not made. He's never going to walk a ton and he's never going to see a ton of pitchers. That's fine - Nomar and Vlad Guerrero made fine livings being up there to hack. He just needs to square up the pitches he wants and being able to at least get a bat on the stuff that bothers him.

Some guys make very solid careers out of being mistake hitters. If Will can put up a .320-.330 OBP and manage to crush the ball when the pitcher leaves it in the wrong spot, I think he'll end up as a productive regular.

Better late than Nava.

These plays on words and puns would be absolutely dreadful if they were used by anybody else that wasn't you. Somehow, they're actually funny when you use them.

There we go - if they can't land a guy like a Choo or something ... seriously, Nava/Gomes as a 2-headed left fielder is plenty effective.

They have to bring this whoopin' stick to the bronx, I would be overjoyed to watch it. If they can do this to the Tigers then there is no reason not to thrash the yankees till they want to change careers.

While the Tigers solved their SS problem with Iggy, I don't remember any big deals at the deadline that resolved their pen issues. Leyland is obviously so reluctant to go to the pen....in fact scared shitless to go to the pen. Granted the pen can be overrated in post season play. So if you get there, probably not that big a deal. But you can tell Leyland would rather walk the plank than walk out to the mound to pull a starter.

Don't give me too much credit, BTR and Forsyth run the show with the mojo. We will lead the Sox into the playoffs for the first time since 2009.

 

Nah man. It's a 3-way for sure. If the lead holds, we will be a combined 9-2 since we started the Optimists Unite for Game Threads.

And to the World Series for the first time since 2007. Suck on that Cubs!
