What is Boston going to do?

Question

Boston has a good shortstop Jed Lowrie who is hot right now, but they have Julio lugo signed to a big contract who is on the DL right now and is hitting horrible and is making tons of errors who will the Red Sox start after Julio Lugo gets off the DL and what will they do at the end of the season and if they get rid of someone who?

Also the red sox have two centerfielders: coco crisp and jacoby ellsbury.they are switching off at center almost every game.Will they continue this and who will they get rid of if they get rid of one of them?

Answer 1

Julio Lugo should sit, it's time to recognize a sunk cost.  Play the hot hand.  As for CF, whenever one of them decides to start hitting, he'll win the job.  I bet the management wants Ellsbury to earn it, but he's slumping.

Answer 2

I feel you, I'm a huge Sox fan. I can't stand Lugo myself. He is an overall decent player but he cant hit the side of a barn or catch. However he is under contract but I believe when his contract is up (end of 2009) Jed Lowrie will step in and take over. Lugo will either be traded or backup or sent back to AAA.

Now about the Coco and Jacoby deal. My opinion is that eventually Coco will be gone. He is a good player but he lacks consistency. Jacoby's in a slump right now but he will bounce back sooner or later. I don't have a lot of backup for my opinion but its just a hunch.

Answer 3

IF they want to win they should keep playing lowrie and one of the CF will have to outshine they other for them to stop.

Answer 4

Lowries nasty, i think Lugo might play for a little but if theyre in the playoffs (of course they will be) Lowrie will play. Coco's gonna be gone sooner or later, (even though after that fight i'm sure we'd love to see him stay)Ellsburys gonna be a superstar.  

Answer 5

simple answer....

who cares about the red sox.  

Answer 6

jed lowrie will be the new shortstop yeah there paying lugo more than hes worth but they got the money. as for the centerfielding problem i bet you theyll just swithch off i mean there both doing a fine job y sit one
