I'm not trying to yuck anyone's yum but he's a terrible player that had a nice two weeks. It's baseball, it can happen.

Romy is in his age 26 season. He's not exactly that young. ZIPS projected him for negative WAR. Outside of a nice season in Bham he's shown absolutely nothing to indicate he's anything more than JAG. His physical profile is nothing, his stats are nothing. Nobody rated him as anything more than a potential utility guy in MLB and he's not even that given he plays one position and doesn't even play it that well. That the Sox seemed to think he was a semi regular 2B is clown stuff.

Could have just played Leury honestly.

A spectacularly poor decision by the NY Times as it turns out, which is now leading to cutting what made the Athletic relatively valuable in the first place. My prediction is that the Athletic will slowly go the way of SB Nation.

The umps could go to 4 strikes for our guys and we'd still suck.

This is like when the JV scrimmages the varsity.

he needs his insulin shot.

historically bad offense.

Pretty much. It really seems like he let a lot of things go to his head. Whoever he has in his inner circle is letting him down and he's costing himself quite a bit of money with his play. There's a bunch of guys on this team I used to like that now I'm really just indifferent towards. TA, Moncada, Vaughn, Eloy, the list goes on.

It was on his non dominant hand and the injury occurred last August. He should have been able to resume normal baseball activities around X-Mas. I don't know, I just don't see it as that big of a deal. If anything maybe his lower body injuries have done more to sap his talent.

Not sure why a broken hand would cause him to post career lows in GB%, launch angle, and overall swing % (other than his rookie year). He looks like a guy that tried to change his entire approach midway through his career and it was a massive failure. It's like he tried to turn into something he's not. He's a free swing that has incredible top hand when he was going well. Now he's a guy that gets into too many two strike counts and is just looking to flip something into RF.

I don't really rate marital infidelity but if you're gonna sleep around outside your marriage at least have the good sense to not get caught. Of course nobody would give half a s%*# about his off field issues if he was still hitting 300/330/480 and playing 145 games a year. He wants it to be one way, but it's the other.

Let me guess he blamed the media?

I have to admit I was a lot bigger on TAs off field persona when he wasn't replacement level on the diamond. I watched a few minutes of the interview, just didn't hold my interest. Thanks for the link.

last in launch angle and BB% and first in O-Swing%. That is absolutely fucking amazing.

Time to cancel my sub. What a joke.

That's enough White Sox baseball for this weekend, JFC. Just a bad team doing bad things.

Boring ass team.

lol. click. have a game TA.

Just play DP depth and hope for a miracle.

I don't care what his stats say I can't stand Kelly and his face makes me angry.

Jesus christ.

Is Liam not available?

and here we go!
