Buxton is legit MVP candidate right now . Leading MLB in Hr a great fielder and fast as anyone I can imagine it. We’d need to carry 6 starting outfielders on the roster because Buxton and Robert would be missing more than half the games every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Sox Park Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) I've disliked LaRussa going way back to his Oakland years, but at least then he was competent . he won't be fired, but i think that he will be the focus of hatred from White Sox fans, all season, unless this thing gets turned around.

Very creative contracts. There's risk, but for MVP caliber players. The White Sox only have Robert now that can measure up...as Jose's prime is now past.

Honestly I feel the whole staff needs to go. I haven't been impressed with Katz. McEwing is a joke and Boston I have no clue what he does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it’s IL worthy or not, if the radio guys are seeing him wincing all the time, the manager is supposed to be in charge and proactive.

Good. He never should have been hired to begin with. He belongs in a retirement center. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you never ever thought about getting an all world baseball player who is every bit as good now as Trout when healthy , there's just no reasoning with you.

Back then he could barely hit .220 and most of his value was derived from defense but they definitely made the right choice between him and Berrios.

JFC do I have to spell everything out to you ? Since 2018, excluding the short season and this season, he’s averaging 59 games played per season. 59! Do I need to spell it out for you further? He can’t be counted on, simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tried to give the game away in the eighth. If the Twins get that bunt down, it never goes into extras. They were lucky to survive a walk and a two- base error.
