Keon Barnum should be no lower than 4-5. |

It's too bad that the Sox don't have Pujols and Jeter, like on the other side of town. |

In 77 games at AA he hit .250 with 4 HR's and 30 RBI. If he were in the Cubs system they would build a statue for him. |

Magglio Ordonez Carlos Lee Chris Sale appears to be headed in that direction Gio Gonzalez
