https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2019/09/04/luis-robert-white-sox-prospect-minor-league-player-of-the-year/2204281001/ Love this quote from Vizquel. Not a doubt in my mind he would do the same with Moncada and others if he was up here. There, Vizquel installed him as the team’s leadoff hitter so he could see as many plate appearances as possible. He also gave him no restrictions on the bases. “When you are in this development period, you have to let him run all the time,” Vizquel says. “I give him the advantage to be on his own, have a green light and let him have a feel for the pitcher to see when he can run or not. Then if he made a mistake, we go talk to him about it. But you have to give him that freedom.” In 56 games at Birmingham, he stole 21 bases in 27 attempts.

Watched plenty for 25+ years lol. I've seen one or the other multiple times, not one player do both. It's unbelievable actually.

I don't think I've ever seen a plauer cost his own teammate AND himself an RBI in a season before. I still remember him running past Timmy after his homerun.

We really don't know if he was screaming him to get back or not. That's what happens when there is a language barrier. Still though that is something you learn and know in little league. Hell, I've seen my high school coach bench one of my teammates for making that mistake.

I have to quote my own post again to reiterate this. That might of been the worst baserunning I've seen this season and Abreu has made some dumb ass base running mistakes all year. I still can't believe he cost Eloy an out AND an RBI. Unreal.

Dude Abreu was at 3B! That is little league baseball one on one regardless if it was caught or not. He was scoring regardless. Your takes the past couple of weeks on this board (and the other board) have been terrible.

And now Ricky pretty much batting deadweight #7 in the order will likely be the end of this one.

You absolutely can. 0 excuses there.

Eloy was robbed but that AT LEAST should ne a sacrifice fly. Abreu cost Eloy an out along with an RBI. IN FUCKING EXCUSABLE.

Leury and Abreu are such dumb baseball players.

Abreu with another dumb ass base running play.

If Eloy doesn't get it done here, Ricky's decision to bat Palka (now Engel) 7th will really loom large.

Francona protecting his pitcher there. Love it.

He does alot of good as a manager. Managing his bullpen is not one of his strong suits it seems.

Here it is! Bases loaded for him.

This is gonna come down to Eloy. Watch.

With as many times as Moncada has been screwed in his career with borderline pitches, it's nice to see one go his way.

Wow! Can't believe Moncada got a break!

Great at bat by Moncada no matter the outcome.

"The bases were empty" - more Ron

TIMMY!!!

Very good point. Did not even recognize that.
