This guy has been Crushinggg the ball lately! Is there any chance he gets SS eligibility?

[soxfan25]

Depends on your eligibility rules he has 26 @ 2B 9 @ OF and 4 @ SS. I really don't see him gaining SS eligibility unless O-Cab gets hurt. Uribe is off the DL so you might want to keep an eye on that.

I think its 5 games at one position for yahoo, not sure though.

like the previous poster said, the Cuban Missile will probably not be getting much time at short stop, barring a cabrera injury...i suppose he'll give him a day off here and there, but don't expect alot of activity there. however, it seems as if the sox long term plans are to have him start at short stop next year, so if you're in a keeper, it might be worth hanging onto to him with the hope that he'll be a short stop next year. I wouldn't worry too much about Uribe taking much time from him at 2B...Uribe's been healthy for awhile, and hasn't been able to get off the bench with the Missile tearing it up.

I would shop kendrick around and see if you can get anything for him personally. Ramirez is the better prospect than Casilla and if he can hit second in the order then he can maximize his R,RBI, and SB potential and could develop into a solid .295 15HR 15SB player this year. Casilla doesn't have the track record and was only hitting like .219 in the minors before his recent tear so I'm not buying it just yet.
