Kalapse Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Just now, maxjusttyped said: Can't expect a HOF manager to realize Leury hits like a pitcher vs RHP and Hamilton hits like a pitcher vs everyone. That's the thing, the platoon advantage keeps getting referred to as reasons why TLR played Lamb and Williams up in the lineup yet he continues to play Leury vs RHP. He's truly a terrible manager right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Not sure why wou’d ever put a key at-bat in Leury’s hands against DET at home. Play for the big inning. Mize hasn’t bee particularly good his last two starts. MLB avg RISP=.239 White Sox=.244 White Sox Opponents=.254 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Also, props to Bennetti for calling out the bunt for what it was. Most announcers don't do that to the home manager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Hibbard Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 TLR lineups this season remind me of a hitter who decides whether he’s going to swing before the pitcher even puts both feet on the rubber. Except if the hitter decided that on every damned pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have to double check LaRoche. But those were mostly bad Hahn FA deals, not players around the organization as long as Garcia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLessRob Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 The only positive of the TLR hire was that I feel like it collectively brought Soxtalk together with their hatred for the signing. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Poor footwork by Collins. He was off balance and yanked the throw to the 3rd baseside of the bag. Now it cost them a run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
