The White Sox acquired Kevin Youkilis from the Boston Red Sox! I can’t speak for you, but I am ecstatic about the move. I love Brent Morel, and Orlando Hudson has done a nice job holding the fort at 3rd, but Youkilis is a man!
Not only can he hit and field, but he is a winner. A 2-time World Series Champion isn’t a bad guy to add to the mix. Don’t know what kind of clubhouse guy he is, but if he was a bad guy, we all would have known about it.
You knew Youkilis’ days in Boston were numbered after Manager Bobby Valentine called the guy out early in the season. From what I’ve seen and read, Youkilis has been a true team player for the Red Sox. He moved from 1st to 3rd almost weekly. It wasn’t until the Sox got Adrian Gonzalez that Youkilis was bumped back to 3rd for good.
