This might be the first time ever I have seen someone call Moncada overweight. He might be wrongly conditioned, but he is anything but overweight. Dude is a freaking Adonis. Too much muscle, not enough flexibility? Sure. Overweight? Lmao, no. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) If Moncada is truly hurt (and Grandal for that matter), please IL them and roll with Burger and Carlos Perez. And bring them back slowly. I know it sucks not having their lefty bats but it does you no good if they are both massively underperforming.

Who says anyone was calling on them? Other teams aren't stupid, they see the $$$ tied to the back end of those deals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Lynn's rehab start didn't exactly go well yesterday either. He said he felt good, but he also gave up 7 runs in 3 innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, not really encouraging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

he gone. Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Not too worried about Lynn. It's essentially practice out there for Lynn. In regards to Eloy, smh. Nothing to add. Anderson will be back before him, and honestly? We can withstand no Eloy more than we can Anderson. Eloy's peak to me is Carlos Lee. He's an above average player, but really not that valuable overall because of his D and injuries. His and Yoans career arc is a one or two time all star who are slightly above average. They're not winning you championships, but can be a big part of winning one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Mercedes Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Eloy is becoming a coach killer. Err, a team killer. There are a number of people on the White Sox like that. We know who they are. The money allocated has poor return. There should be some long conversations this offseason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Eloy has a brain cramp and will rest a few days. Lance is a slob who should have had.surgery last fall and lost about 50 lbs. before spring training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What? Lol. These are baseball players you're talking about. You know that, right? Some of the least injury-prone baseball players of all time were, by all measurable standards, fat asses... Especially in comparison to the three guys you listed. If anything, Eloy and Moncada have too much muscle mass, and not enough flexibility. Also, are people really citing BMI here?

I mean Jimmy expects him back before the whole 20 days . I expect it to last longer than 20 days. If the 20 days starts after he returns on Tuesday the 20 days is up July 4th. So I'm thinking somehow he re injured himself and maybe out until after the Al Star break so around July 20th.

I expect it to last longer than 20 days. Not necessarily the rehab assignment lasting longer than 20 days since that might be against the rules. I'm expecting him to get reinjured and get another IL stint of at least 10 days which would then allow for another rehab stint. July 1st or later is what I am expecting. No. Jimmy said "he would be surprised if he finished the 20 days" meaning he does not expect him to. You're saying the same thing but you just worded it incorrectly.
