Chisox378 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I say Leury goes, he has been showcased as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) I had blocked out that they moved Moncada to 3B and were serious about it. Meanwhile Engel is your opening day CF for the 3rd horse shit year in a row. Fuck this franchise man. Hey maybe by the time he's 30 he'll produce an OPS+ over 80!

Far from ideal, but I’d like to see Palka get the majority of ABs in RF and I’ve seen enough of Adam to know he’s nothing more than a 4th OF. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is Engel being handed the starting CF job three years running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisox378 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Adam can go get em though. And he is about the same hitter as Leury and Delmonico. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main argument is protecting Jimenez, fragile psyches of young pitching...and especially if Palka or Guyer are also in the outfield, too.

Leury is a much better hitter and overall better player. Engels defensive is not good enough nor is Leurys defensive bad enough to rationalize any argument of Engel being better than Leury, Just look at Leury's WAR numbers he has put up in his limited playing time compared to Engel. It is shame both the White Sox fan base and the management have yet to realize this and we have to deal the false perception that Engel is our best option for CF.

The White Sox have a hard on for shitty players that are incredible one dimensional. Unless he's Willie Mays in the OF you can't carry a 60 OPS+ regular.

Which is true, but run him out there until he gets hurt and then call up Adam if need be. I think there’s a much better chance Leury develops into an actual useful player / trade chip than Engel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just misses way too much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically I think the best way to try to use him is 3 to 4 days a week as a super utility guy. If he plays too much, he gets hurt. Backing up 2b/ss/3b/lf/cf would get him plenty of ABs, and hopefully not expose him too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
