Balta1701 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 So I haven't seen this in game threads but I haven't been in all of them so I'll ask... Did Jay just go 10 days without playing and have no one here notice? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glangon Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 This opens the path for Eloy without them having to make a decision on which of the outfielders to dump. Jay to IL, Eloy called up to the big leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mqr Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Do we think he's actually hurt, or is this how they're getting Eloy on the roster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Jon Jay is going to be useful enough to have around. I am fine with him riding the pine pony in favor of Leury, Palka, Rondon and even Engel, but at some point he's going to be needed and a high OBP guy that can cover all the OF positions is useful enough. I know everyone hates him because he is a painful reminder of what could have been, and he's getting paid like $2M too much, but let's not lose sight of the fact that he is likely the 2nd best all around OF on the roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Engel is truly viewed as a 4th or 5th outfielder at this point. I know Leury can be an adventure in CF but he has shown he can hit a bit. All the defense in the world doesn’t make up for a .600 OPS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I can stomach Alonso but I think it'd be a nice gesture to the fans to cut Jay before opening day. Every at bat he gets I'll be saying, "Why??" There's absolutely no logical reason to let that guy have more than 40 at bats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the second best outfielder on the roster, or third depending on whether or not Leury Garcia is being considered as an outfielder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppysox Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 With Jon Jay on the 10 DL--we get a good look at Palka, Garcia and Engle and how Rick uses these guys. Palka's ability to handle right field is a big question mark for me. I like Jay as a role player and predict we're glad to have him before it's over. Although I love what Palka does for the offense he has to catch the ball. He's been passable in the games I've watched but will wait to see him when the bright lights go on. He has slimmed down quite a bit so am hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Eloy Leury and Palka not a bad OF for now. Palka worked on his agility during the off season. Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
