B) He has a gaping hole in his swing that AAA teams haven't recognized or AAA pitchers can't expoit?
C) He has a bad attitude about switching positions and doesn't work on his defense there despite the obvious opportunity?
D) The Red Sox view him as a trade chip this winter and don't want to chance a bad BABIP induced weak-looking September eroding some of his value?
E) His atrocious walk rate signifies that major league pitchers would turn him into a poor man's Wilton Veras?
F) He keyed John Farrell's car the last time he was demoted?
Other options?
