why move Teahan to the outfield??
we had some success in developing outfielders ....... we need a shortstop. why can't we move Teahan 15 feet to his left and let him play at shortstop? the angle of the hits is similar ... the throws to 1st are similar i think Teahan is athletic enough to learn how to "turn 2" Teahan is a solid hitter at 3rd base .... but would be considered a fantastic hitting shortstop. Gordon,Teahan,Grud,Shealy,Buck is a solid infield ... especially if Buck can develop as a hitter. german and berroa as backups Jesus,Costa,Saunders in the outfields with Gathright and Brown as backups. Brown,Sweeney at DH full roster already under contract .... Moore can concentrate on just picking up pitching this coming off season.

Hochevar pitches tonight for Wichita, I do believe. They're playing on the road these last three games though. Supposed to be Hochevar-Lumsden-Greinke pitching, something to watch for.

There were discussions about this on the radio today.
Brown probably won't be here next year. Sanders will be a trade candidate. Grud is a much more likely candidate at SS. He's actually played it before. |

I don't think Teahen has the range to play SS. I think the interesting question is what will happen to Gathright and Huber eventually.
I think we might try and find a SS in free agency. If not, maybe just give Blanco the job. Emil's up for arbitration I do believe. And he's probably going to win a pretty good chunk of salary, he's just kinda quietly rolling along hitting almost .300. Although with Sanders and Sweeney, we're going to need a right handed bat somewhere. Maybe it's Justin Huber. |

i'd hate to see them dump Teahan in the outfield much like they dump pitchers into "middle relief" whenevery they can't handle being a starter or closer.

Is there anyone in the minors that's being groomed for 2nd? Maybe it's a position we address in FA. |

Or is he thinking of dangling DeJesus for pitching help, installing Gathright in CF and flanking him with strong bats? Because I don't like the idea of having both Gath and DeJesus in the OF. DeJesus has more value (as a hitter) in CF, and I don't like having so little firepower in 2/3 of the OF. I'd rather have either one in CF flanked by power bats (Teahen and Huber?) What does that leave ... Gordon at 3B, Shealy at 1B, Butler at DH and Lubanski and Meier as backups/trade bait/other? Or maybe Huber is trade bait for pitching? Basically, I think Moore has a lot of options emerging in the next 1-2 years. |
