Why has this team continued to use Kimbrel like he is an elite arm when he has sucked since he got here.

Their offense has been dead in the 2 and what looks like 3rd game they've lost. How do you blame TLR for that?

Will they go to Rodon if he struggles early? What is the back up plan?

Why do so many think April Yermin was the "fake" Yermin and Yermin who has been in a slump is the real Yermin. Obviously he is not as good as his April numbers were but he is also much better than he has been. Even if he rakes in AAA I don't think they will call him back up. The White Sox management never wanted him on the team and took forever to finally give him a chance and now they send him down after his first slump. You would think he would get a little more of a leash considering how great he hit in April but apparently not.

People seem to exaggerate how bad Eloy is based on some occasional very bad looking plays. He is not good but the vast majority of the games he does fine and catches the balls hit towards him. Removing him from LF for DH significantly decreases our offensive potential.

I'd prefer just going with Vaughn in RF.

The fact is he was wasting away in the minors the past few seasons while had an open spot at DH. He was not raking in the upper minors prior to getting into the Sox system. Any other team in the White Sox situation would have given him a chance much earlier than the White Sox did.

He should still get a chance to play first some games. Just because he missed that one catch last game on a bad throw doesn't mean he can't play first.

He was crushing the ball in AAA in 2019 and even during September call ups they didn't give him a shot. Think of all the trash bats we have given so much playing time at DH the past few years while we've had Yermin in the system.

I remember reading this guys posts about Rodon's mechanics leading to his injuries. I don't know if he was right but it looks like Rodon has gotten rid of that twist in his delivery. http://chrisoleary.com/pitching/thelist/#Rodon_Carlos

I don't think Abreu cares about bat flips.

Lynn is nice but I decided to look up how Dunning is doing and he is doing very good. I still believe trading him for 1 season of Lynn was a mistake.

Especially considering we had a blackhole in the DH spot.

Nothing La Russa has done is irrational. Sometimes a manger deserves criticism for bullpen management but most the time it is just hindsight criticism where no one had any problems with the choice until the pitcher gives up runs.

Vaughn would be more likely to get traded than Eloy.
