Grover said he is going to play and lets face it he is not playing right field.

That means Morse, Lopez, Snelling, etc. need to be playing regularly. No use in calling them up to sit on the bench. There needs to be a plan in place-is the goal to be in contention next year? 2007? Hopefully these are the questions Bavasi and co. are asking and trying to address.<BR/><BR/>I wonder if the Snelling call up is a precursor to trading Winn.Mike Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16414192919706877733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13376744.post-1120447198263856502005-07-03T20:19:00.000-07:002005-07-03T20:19:00.000-07:00..agree --Boonie was a big hit in 2001 and a fan f.....agree --Boonie was a big hit in 2001 and a fan favorite but ..geez,if he can't do it anymore,make the move --looks like a youth movement --can it work is biggest question--or more accurately can it work inthe short run for al of us desperate for a winner --a BIG winner--this born-and-raised-as-a-Red Sox Fan understands futility but getting close is name of game and we haven't been close to a World Series ,well...EVER !!!--never an AL flag to wave in Safeco Filed..so as Blutarsky says in bottom of ninth whne we'r e behnd---"LET'S DO IT !! ..cutting Boone loose may hav ebben the first big stepAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13376744.post-1120429866338153522005-07-03T15:31:00.000-07:002005-07-03T15:31:00.000-07:00Oh and the M's win.
