Swingandalongonetoleft Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Great news! Hopefully they make him wear a bicycle helmet, life jacket, and fireproof uniform when he's in left field. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 4 minutes ago, EloyJenkins said: 100%. Sheets and another piece can be used to get a difference maker. I like sheets, but with Cespedes and Colas in the pipeline, he isn't the long term answer and he will get exposed come playoff time. A playoff Lineup of LF Vaughn with Engel 7th inning on, CF of Robert and RF of Acquisition with Engel getting some play here is just big boy pants. Goodwin and Hamilton are nice stories...but them vs every ace in October is not going to end well. Fully agree. I do like Sheets but selling high on him now would likely be the prudent thing to do. I still think a Gallo or Marte for RF is a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so. We don't need him blowing a hamstring or tearing his tit again going after a baseball. Let him hit the shit out of baseballs and drive in runs...and smile for the camera. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can round robin with Eloy and Vaughn for DH in the playoffs and if Cespedes or Colas are ready in 2023 you thank him for the ring and move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 21 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: A little too early to bank on Sheets being the answer IMO. Twins threw him a lot of pitches outside and he really didn't have much to hit all series. And when he did there was a lot of weak contact. It appears that teams are already adjusting and staying away from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think a Gallo or Marte for RF is a must. Not sure if I agree that getting a Gallo or Marte is a must(I'd obviously love to have either) but I completely agree with what you said about Sheets. If you can sell high on Sheets right now or in a few weeks, go do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 10 minutes ago, chitownsportsfan said: Shields is likely about -10 runs in RF, he looks like Palka out there. There is still imo a need for a OF although Goodwin is doing his best to fill in the hole. Why won't James Shields let us live in peace???

He's said that he wants to stay in Texas. With how well he's been hitting his price probably just doubled in the past month or so. The best time to get him was probably a few weeks after Robert went down. But I don't think teams like to make big trades that early in the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they trade for someone, but they do have guys they can mix and match with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 If Eloy, Robert, and Grandal all come back, Engel/Goodwin/? plays RF and hits 8th. I think they can mix and match well enough to get production from the 8 hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Playoffs looking at Vaughn, Robert, Engel or perhaps Goodwin/Sheets/Lamb from left to right, with Hamilton the 5th OF and Eloy the primary DH. Not expecting more beyond the Ross discount rack RP or C over the next three weeks, similar to in the words of Steve Stone last August, ownership's major commitment to winning in troubling difficult times, i.e. Jarrod Dyson (he wasn't being sarcastic).
