Re: Red Sox 2012/2013 Offseason Thread
It's easier to find a 1b than a capable RF. I'd keep Brentz in the OF and fill 1b via FA when needed in the offseason.

Hyperbole?... It happens on Internet sports forums. 26 games in the IF over 2 years -- he was basically an emergency option. He predominantly played the OF those years. You are picking some nits and going on with it like a dog with a bone. Millar may not have been the best example, but he wasn't the worst example either. In any regard, I think you got SBFs point. He thought Brentz could make the transition. Others have.

There's 2 or 3 guys who are "our future right fielder" at the moment, including Kalish, Bradley, and Victorino. That's why you might be able to spare Brentz.

I'm not sure if you can afford him. Brentz is more likely the team's future left fielder, Bradley to center, Victorino in right. Kalish will probably too injured to play, I don't think he has had mono yet, has he?

Re: Red Sox 2012/2013 Offseason Thread
Well, I am betting the Sox prefer to keep Brentz in the outfield and at Pawtucket for one more year. As a former pitcher, I bet his arm plays too well in the outfield.

Absolute hose for an arm. It's the only ting I have seen all scouts and reports agree on about him.
