I agree about your concern. The point of my post was that the players who have replaced Casas have been, for lack of a better word, terrible. No Gehrig's in that bunch.
Good comeback win by the SOX.
Kenley, who should deservedly end up in the HOF, is likely to be traded. IMHO, if the SOX are gonna trade him, they should do it while he's healthy and not risk waiting for the trade deadline.
I was drinking at an outside bar here in Syracuse, which is Yankem country, when Nava hit that grand slam on his 1st at bat. I was a little drunk and outnumbered by Yankem idiots. I was fortunate to leave that bar alive.
Wally Pipp, the starting 1st baseman for the Yankems, got injured and was replaced by Lou Gehrig. Wally never played 1st base for the Yankems again. I don't think that's gonna happen to Casas.
