They would probably just put Leury in LF a lot for defense and DH Eloy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the sentiment but the Sox aren't sacrificing all of their power in order to do that, like they did letting Thome walk in favor of Kotsay. I don't want Leury DHing but if he does I'm not gonna be wondering how they are gonna score runs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney.adam Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I don’t think there is going to be a big addition at DH. They don’t want to block Vaughn so I can see them signing Tommy La Stella or just go in house until Vaughn is ready to come up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s clearly a soxtalk member, as anything said here is being posted on twitter. It’s cool though, makes for good discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it’s not like it’s a long experiment. See if he can be something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they sign someone big when it can block Vaughn. Doesn’t make sense for the team so going with someone short term is a better fit for the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it’s just disappointing they didn’t shoot for the stars in RF. They had the chance to make this an all world lineup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you believe some troll spreading rumors on Twitter? I know who you are talking about and Nancy’s Pizza is a troll dude. Right after they accused me of being one of those guys, they turned around and responded to one of Portillos tweets saying Thank you White Sox Dave. There’s your answer!

Lol I don't really pay much attention to Twitter only from what's posted here. So I have no Idea who posted that about you, where she got your name from or why she would think that and I certainly don't believe her but I also don't not believer her. I'm neutral because I mostly don't care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can even go on there right now and name the account Andy’s Frozen Custard and start posting garbage and get likes and followers. That’s why I don’t believe everything that’s posted on there. It’s like an echo chamber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him if only because we need someone that can fill Moncada's spot if there's an injury (which some will say is a certainty). He was pretty terrible in 2019 though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
