bmags Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Cesar better homer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 In the pregame presser, TLR explained his logic for Leury over Engle as wanting to have Cesar’s left handed bat in against Garcia. Sane logic that burned us in game 2. Asshole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney.adam Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) We need to get a RF and a 2b in the offseason. The bottom of the lineup is garbage. Edited October 10, 2021 by maloney.adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The excuse is that Cesar and Leury are both swtich hitters, completely ignoring the fact that they'll combine to go 0-8. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a weak ass hitter like Cesar in the lineup in the 9 spot isn't worth sacrificing a ton of defense in RF with a fly ball pitcher like Cease on the mound. Lefties do hit Garcia better, but like you said, the hitters we're talking about suck anyhow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leury has to get on base a couple times to compensate for the lack of defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Contrary to popular opinion, I like the Sox to take the next two games. Expecting Cease to pitch his ass off tonight and the Sox to muster enough offense to win a close one. Game 4, Sox win a blowout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But having Leury start in OF again is just not great! Goodwin (who isn't all that great either) should have been on this roster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Than they should actually start playing their best players in the right spots. Play Engel in RF and Leury at 2nd.

This is 100pc about Tony hoping Leury has a big hit to redeem himself and zero about fielding the best team.

One of the more infuriating things about managers being stuck up their own ass about lefty righty matchups. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
