Default Re: Hee Seop Choi to the Red Sox, for NOTHING.

Choi is nothing but a backup first basemen He's a good backup, but a backup none the less.

in your opinion. personally, i think he should start for the red sox and youk at 3B. if a guy can start at 1B for a 90 win+ team, then hes not a 'solid backup'.

his top 3 comps for this year are:

ortiz 2003
kusick 1976
durazo 2001
hafner 2004

those are not 'backup' seasons. of course he may not have a season like any of those guys, but his career to this point shows huge similarities to guys ready to "breakout".

There is a pretty big difference in body type between those guys and Choi.
