And despite having good luck, he still can’t put up an OPS in the .700s

Also should tell you they desperately need an influx of outside talent as well, as they’re not a Robert/Madrigal short of competing right now offensively.

So tired of seeing him. Seeing his jumps in person in RF is amazing. Concrete boots indeed

Fair or foul?

For those that didn’t listen, Hahn once again said on the podcast that they need their hitters to execute Steverson’s game plan better.

2-0 pitch and Eloy hits it like 10 feet foul on the ground and then swings and misses. This offense is so lifeless.

I don’t trust Wood at all in the AL.

Stras going back to San Diego makes a ton of sense

Like I said, he mentioned they won’t always get the top guy and then mentioned 4 things that easily describe Cole’s situation. On a side note, I read today that Cole said he likes pitching on the west coast because he can hug his mom after those games.

The approach is just awful. Taking fastballs, yet chasing sliders early in the count.

Quality offensive game. Sad thing is only one starter is missing from the lineup.

Something I’m looking forward to with the Sox being good in the future is many in the fan base realizing just how much most of these guys sucked during the rebuild

Eloy seems to be down 0-2 in the count every other AB

Sure, but idea is to have someone good facing top of the order and not a crappy pitcher

Agree with you here, that immediately came to mind hearing him say that.

Cole is the top free agent available and is from the west coast, married a girl from west coast, has talked about wanting to play on the west coast and went to college on the west coast.....he laid it all out right there unless you think it was all some big coincidence he mentioned all that criteria. We will hear this during the offseason I’m sure when he signs with the Padres or Angels.

It didn’t give me the impression they view next year as a window being wide open season. I understand why after last offseason, but that doesn’t make it any less fault of their own.

For starters, I’m not on Twitter. He should probably realize that every team’s fan base seems to be negative on Twitter. Anyways, I still don’t like how he seems to feel social media is a deterrent to the rebuild. Him blaming the lack of a trade last year due to a leak is still ridiculous. Keep things tighter in your organization and don’t have people blabbing to Peggy Kusinski.

Fernando Tatis Jr. thread
He reminds me of someone like Yoan who hits the ball hard, uses the whole field and is so fast that he’s always going to have a high BABIP
