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.

Leury is a solid hitter who usually hits .270+, it seems most would prefer to forget that and overreact because he hasn't gotten a hit in his first 2 games.

I was posting all the time last year about Yermin as DH, I even made it my signature.

I just want to say I had my signature since last year and have been championing Yermin the past few seasons. We've had a blackhole at DH for years and he deserved to have a chance long ago. I don't know why more fans were calling for him when we had such trash at DH.
