wegner Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 No reason to make the game fucking interesting Vaughn, This offense is just damn atrocious. I do not remember seeing any team hit into so many double plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still believe that moves should have been made for next year instead of this year. I'm just glad they're trying too! Yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is faster and less prone to the DP and to clogging up the bases when he gets on. Vaughn hits too many ground balls and is too slow. Move him down the order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Sox will finish with 82 wins and the difference will be that they didn't bring in 2-3 WAR regulars at RF and 2B, like everybody fucking begged. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically more if they were getting negative WAR from the position, which I'm assuming is lower than -1. But it also doesn't exactly equal Wins.

Smart FOs never assume that on whole the squad will play to their projections. They work night and day to cover worst case scenarios because this is real life, not a projection. The Sox just assumed Eloy would put up 5 WAR, Moncada would stay healthy, Robert was a 7 WAR MVP and so on and on and on. Well guess what -- if they had planned for a scenario like this they'd still be in a great position. But, a failure to plan results in failure usually.
