Richie Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 1 hour ago, ChiSox59 said: Meh, don't really buy that. If that is the case, why ever announce SP beforehand? I'm almost positive that the media works on their own to report probable starters 99% of the time. If you have inside knowledge of the team, it has to be the easiest thing in the world to figure out. I mean, once they called up Detwiler, there was only one reason to do so. The rotation is clearly easy to project barring injury. It's not like Ricky is phoning reporters or opposing teams to announce his starter. What's more... why should they announce moves in the morning?

Southwest Sider Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I dont know where else to put my extreme exasperation at all the injuries throughout the organization. Holy fucking shit. I hope this horrible luck is behind us when were ready to compete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly why I would have preferred Mendick up instead of Palka so we had an INF guy who can also play OF if needed I do preferred Mendick. But Cordell can definitely play the IF if need be. He played a lot of infield in the minors, though the Sox have yet to use him there at all in minors or majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way this day has gone with injuries probably making sure there wasn't a car or plane crash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTruth05 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) Can’t wait until Ricky is gone. What a joke and the FO is even dumber if they agree with his asinine ideas Edited June 28, 2019 by TheTruth05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Collins play first so you don't have to put yourself in a position to lose your DH, because that is 100% why he's not playing. Collins absolutely should be getting regular AB's. You can easily work Abreu, Palka, and Collins into the same lineup without risking losing the DH later in the game. So stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it is now hip to hate Jose Abreu, but the new narrative that he won't DH is a bit ridiculous. He has done it 22 times, besides there is nothing that prevents Collins from doing it.

This is a beef I’ve had about abreu since they had LaRoche, who was terrible obviously but at least was a better defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
