He's a better hitter. He also has way more upside than Buck at this point. This was why I glibly said that he was better.

What do you think was the biggest contributor to keeping the White Sox out of the 2012 playoffs?

Is the answer offense? Because I think the answer is offense. Do I win?

Baseball is not an offensive sport.

Yeah it is. You play to score the most runs to win the game.
Defense and pitching put you in the conversation. Offense is execution of fundamentals and key hits, whether they be hit/run singles, extra base hits, and so on. The Giants don't have a lot of LTP. But they make contact and get the hits needed to win. The Dodgers can keep spending, but they need to prove that they can get it done when the chips are down. |

If he's a garbage catcher, then he's useless in the catcher discussion even if he can hit.

I received my bill today to pay off the remainder of my 2013 Season Tickets. I noticed in the ticket brochure that there were numerous photos of White Sox players. There weren't any photos of Adam Dunn. You usually promote your season tickets with your star players for the upcoming season. Perhaps the White Sox think Dunn won't be on the team in 2013. I would like to think he won't be on the team in 2013. We'll see in a couple of weeks. The Winter meetings are coming up and I would think if the White Sox are going to make a major trade, it will happen then.

Floyd for Arencibia? Would not mind that trade one bit.

IIRC there was a rumor last winter that Floyd was going to Toronto for Deck McGuire and a few others. It's a square peg for a square hole.

Forget Arencibia, they should trade for Emilio Bonifacio.

In baseball the other team controls the ball when you are offense, it is not an offensive sport, it never has been.

Fair enough, but an honest person also would admit the Sox lost plenty of games in 2012 in which the hitting failed despite the Sox getting a great pitching performance.
