So you’re not a dbag I guess is the implication here

If he doesn’t want to play or care, how is his defense so good? I’d think that would be the first to go. Everybody likes to hit.

Well when guys like Harold Ramirez are sporting a 186 OPS+ it could be within the realm if possibility this kind of production over less than 20 games of the season is a fluke

My mind’s eye can still see that Guillen collision. Gruesome. He came back strong but never again had the insane range that he had previously

I don’t often agree with caulfield, but when I do, it’s this post. Obviously playing third isn’t exactly easy either. Baseball is hard

A second baseman handles a lot more plays, so teams typically have put superior and more agile defenders there and guys like Burger at third. That’s why third has generally been considered a power position.

Cabrera tried to take out his own insurance after he was labelled uninsurable, but was still found uninsurable so the Tigers waived the requirement to let him play. Other than that, all mlb players who played in wbc were covered by wbc’s blanket premium.

That is false. The WBC pays for the insurance for all players: “One premium is negotiated with NFP to cover every player. An underwriter reviews each player’s medical records. Players are then placed into two buckets: insurable under that one umbrella premium or uninsurable.” “One agent described a player taking out his own insurance for the tournament as “so damn expensive.” It’s not believed to have ever been done for the WBC.” https://www.latimes.com/sports/story/2023-02-18/why-major-league-players-need-insurance-world-baseball-classic

In case you didn’t know: “World Baseball Classic Inc. (WBCI) is an organizing committee that organizes the World Baseball Classic and consists of Major League Baseball (MLB) and Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) unions.[1]”

Considering the WBC is an event staged by MLB I am guessing MLB will get over it

It would be pretty white sox to beat the rays while losing to losing teams.

Yeah if 2b were easier they wouldn’t put guys like Burger at third to begin with

That only goes as far as New Orleans

I always said this was the Sox board where the mods ARE the trolls, so hell why not spam the s%*# out of it too while you’re at it

Particularly considering the weather is perfect today

If you’re at the game and want to live, you better pay attention when Burger is at the plate

Thanks I can never get exposed to too much corporate advertising

Seems to me like the logjam is with Burger, Vaughn and Eloy and Moncada is irrelevant to the question. Burger doesn’t play a major league caliber third base

Vintage Gio and Lopez looking beastly. That’s more like it

Well surprise surprise

I got an ass like a truck, been passing lots of gas Lasorda would have

I didn’t realize Charlie Blackmon changed his name to Marsh

That ball was kilt. Mercy!

Are you feeling ok?
