So it is the original injury. A plantains rupture. Plantaris muscle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulture Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) 13 minutes ago, Blackout Friday said: He’s bad. I really like the guy, but if he was, let’s say a 5th rounder, he wouldn’t touch a catcher’s mitt in MLB. A fifth rd left handed catcher with power and above average plate discipline advances to AAA, puts up a .950 ops while improving defensively and never gets to the majors? I don’t think that’s accurate Edited July 6, 2021 by Vulture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an easy one as it tears off and won't cause issues in the future. He shouldn't have any set backs with this one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Zavala to get the start tomorrow. Zavala with the .178/.291/.339 triple slash in AAA hitter's paradise, for those wondering. Sobering. Very sobering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) I’m ready to get pelted, but would Zavala on offense/defense really be better than Mercedes as a catcher? Edited July 6, 2021 by Greg Hibbard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boopa1219 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 2 hours ago, ChiSox59 said: To be fair, this is now the third dude who couldn't get hurt, to get hurt. But yes, just terrible if this is a loan term thing. No, Grandal is the most valuable player and the most irreplaceable player in the org by far. He's the only guy on the tea that you can count on to always consistently get on base. He's the only quality MLB catcher in the org, I'm talking about catching and receiving here only. There's no Andrew Vaughn, or Mendick, Garcia that can come up and adequately fill in. The drop off is tremendous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 So, if this is what it is (plantaris) is it even something that is fixed? Or is the time spent basically recuperating from the side effects of the tear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is pretty clear the Sox don't see Mercedes as a catcher at all. He can finish a game behind the plate when the backup gets hurt but that's about it, the Sox want no part of him catching.

I would suspect most will say he can't call a game ,cant block pitches and cant frame so there's that.Pretty much the same stuff we hear about Collins. Yet he plays. If Zavala can do all those things then is Collins only here for his hitting and being LH ?
