QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 02:50 AM) The bunting with Yoan was a bad decision. Your six hitter is up with two men on and you're going to have him bunt? I understand implementing a system, a style but that was just a bad move. It helps Yoan in his development to get opportunities to swing with men on, not bunt. But why is that the system? That's ridiculous in the AL in our park

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:46 AM) I'll take Reds version of Adam Dunn behind the plate with average defense. Why does it seem like every time you go in on a hitting prospect, they hit a homer the next at bat fathom? Fake news, he struck out in his 3rd AB after I posted

QUOTE (oldsox @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 02:46 AM) What did Hawk say about two bunt attempts? I am stuck with KC feed. He said Yoan has a good baseball face. The last two games have been some of Hawk's worst

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:44 AM) You want a team concept, have Moncada hit the ball to the right side. You could tell after the first pitch his bunting acumen is about as good as Paulies time from home to first. Team concept is putting players in positions to succeed. Agreed completely

Haha 3 true outcome!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:39 AM) Renteria is trying to inculcate a team concept, right or wrong. Similarly, there was a lengthy debate on the Score today saying not even Lopez should come up this year to be around a losing atmosphere...so two sides to every coin. Personally, I believe Lopez, Giolito and Fulmer would all benefit from being around Cooper. I also believe they (the young starters) SHOULD have strong enough constitutions to weather the bullpen blowing most of the leads they do get. So sick of the team concept excuse. He pulled same crap with the Cubs. He needs to go coach girls high school softball

Hahaha

Giants won today

Haha

Sweet good thing he played for one run. With Swarzak out tonight, you probably want more than a 3 run cushion

Nice catch by Engel!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:19 AM) Ricky speaks Spanish. Not only was the bunt call dumb, but Perez also figured it out somehow before the first pitch

Good call letting him start the inning against a guy that owns him

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 02:13 AM) Ricky sets Moncada up to fail and he still comes through moving the runners. Atta boy. You don't like trying to give up an out for the red hot Yolmer?

With more eyes on the games with Yoan promoted, I'm seeing way more criticism of Renteria on twitter.

Man did the Cubs luck out having Friedman leave for LA

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:10 AM) Renteria is bunting with Moncada up.. f*** off. He's an absolute joke.

I hate Renteria

Don't bunt

Victor Diaz has been horrible

Tyler Johnson promoted to Kanny

Two straight stinkers for Adams. Seems like some of the starters are hitting the wall

Moncada crushed that, just to wrong part

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:12 AM) You're better than this fathom. It would never happen though especially with Soler having long-term deal. KC wouldn't do it for rentals

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 23, 2017 -> 01:05 AM) I hope this is sarcasm Nope, rather take a chance with him figuring it out than an A ball lottery prospect
