Maybe Sanchez or Davidson can have roles too. Things are starting to come together. Just have to keep in mind the Sox are 29th in payroll with $24.75 million coming off the books via Shields, Soria, MiGo and Santiago. Burdi won't pitch this year.

DirtySox Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Wait. Why are we pinch hitting for Eloy with the bases loaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share Posted May 9, 2018 (edited) On his last double, he was out trying to get a triple because millenials are obsessed with cycles these days. Edited May 9, 2018 by flavum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxJon Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Jameson Fisher has been inconsistently raking, good to see, felt he was somewhat rushed to AA due to system depth but not overmatched Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautox Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 1 hour ago, raBBit said: Yup. Send Basabe, Call and Booker to AA, send Eloy to AAA, send Luis Gonzalez and Robert to A+ and shut down Micker in time so he could be ready for opening day next year even with a minor set back. Charlotte - LF - Jimenez CF - Tilson RF - Cordell BHAM - LF - Booker CF - Basabe RF - Call. Polo mixes in they and all rotate to DH. Cut Barnum and put Fisher at 1B. W-S - LF Luis Gonzalez CF Robert RF - Rutherford. Adolfo handles DH until he needs to shut it down. I dig that alot Side note not on the topic of outfielders but they may deserve a call up to AAA in the not too distant future, there is still time and a chance for him.

Yeah, this should be our worst stretch. Still too many fringe guys or veterans who basically have no shot of being on our next good team. Watching young players develop can be painful at times but is ultimately rewarding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can’t, wait until Super 2 is past, and bring him up. He’s a born hitter. They already have the extra year of control. That happened in April.

ScootsMcGoots Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Anyone find out a consensus on Eloy? Did they just take him out because they were up big, or is he really hurt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 no reason to rush people right now. let them develop.....the tankathon needs to continue at the big league level....just think - its possible that in little over 1 year - to add to our already ridiculous system - we will be adding another #4 overall pick (just for reference - we have only drafted in the top 5 once since 1990 - rodon) and likely will be adding another top 5 (possibly top 3, potentially evne number 1) pick .

They have the right to play him a full season in the minors at age 21, and then hold off a few weeks next year. It’s been done many times.

I wasn't watching, so I didn't hear if the announcers said anything, or if he had played defense the inning prior. Nothing on twitter other than those speculating he is being called up to AAA, although doing that mid-game would be weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoedairy Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Yeah, 1 guy (sam dykstra(?)) said he wasn't injured. I'm guessing it was just due to the blow out and not a call up or #hugwatch or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
