Sox Talking to Swisher

Finally, I heard via NESN that the Sox are having talks with Nick Swisher. As my podcast partner Steve said, "I don't like him." OK. Who does like anyone wearing pinstripes? However, after you get over the dislike, Swisher could be a nice complimentary piece to this team. He plays 1B & OF, 2 positions where we need help. As opposed to Mike Napoli whose possible addition creates a log jam at catcher, Swisher is also a switch hitter & he has played in the AL East. He hit 24 HR's last year, same as Napoli, & Swisher has a higher OPS. If it was my money & my decision, I think Swisher brings more versatility in the field & at the plate than Napoli. Who knows? Maybe Ben will sign both!
