I'm not sure Vaughn can hit a ball much harder than he did yesterday and that thing went what, 365? Ball is dead.

lol I vaguely remember that, wasn't it just a batter?

Gavin Sheets' days are numbered.

I'm left handed, hit 250 in DIII 12 years ago have two surgically reconstructed knees and I'm about 20lbs over my playing weight but I think I'm ready to play 2B for the White Sox when called.

This is the post ur music thread no? hey rick hahn:

I'm not even talking chase rate as much as punishing pitches in the zone via such a powerful and on balance swing. If he gets a hanging slider first pitch from some RHP reliever hit that shit into the bleachers more often than not and make them throw fastballs.

yea that's the best case. plays 30 games a year there and is such a good bat you tolerate the AA level defense. I like Jake, he has a spot in MLB which is crazy after what he's went through but he's not a full time 2B, he's barely a backup corner IF guy right now.

It's crazy how quick Vaughn is to the ball. His problem is 100% with pitch recognition and if ever gets that figured out look out. Even if he only sorta does he should be a good run producer.

at least engel is a very good CF when healthy. Kelenic is barely an avg corner OF. He is a classic Billy Beane archetype. Looks like Tarzan plays like Jane.

His rating on OOTP 22 is now "poor".

How about rock bottom? Entered tonight with a wRC+ of 66 and a 38% K rate. He promptly went 0-2 with 2K and was PINCH HIT FOR WITH DYLAN FUCKING MOORE IN THE 8TH INNING.

What in god's name makes you think Burger can play a decent 2B? There's literally no examples of a guy his profile playing it in the last 30 years that I can remember. Nobody moves from a mediocre to bad 3B and suddenly becomes a solid 2B, not at the MLB level. It's not like he's 21 anymore either he's pretty developed physically.

STOP MOVING GUYS AROUND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

What percentile is he in The Will To Win (TWTW)?

keep that fucking cat well caffeinated we need moar runs.

Abreu looks washed.

the lead will cease.

This is a beer league team that can't hit. I'm telling you guys this has Twins 2021 vibes all over it.

we are the twins' 2021, 2022 so far.

this team is horse shit right now. painful to watch.

playing good baseball would help too.

ur trolling this year is about as impressive as Leury's ABs.

Sorry I was riffing off of the infamous Marshawn Lynch quote from Super Bowl media day. Robin said at some point, maybe it was after he walked away, that he had to be talked into taking the managerial job. He didn't even really want the gig. And from what I can tell he's had nothing to do with MLB or baseball in any role since he walked away from the Sox gig.

That list includes Robin "I'm just here so I don't get fined" Ventura, and Ozzie "I didn't quit on the team I just took another opportunity" Guillen. Even as bad as TLR has been to start this year, that's a pretty insane statement to make.

that would be swapping out a yellow turd for a brown one if it's scioiscia. I don't see any easy answer here. The team isn't going to fire TLR anytime soon and even if they did there's no good options to replace him. the sox have made this bed and now they will have to lie in it for awhile. That includes their core of injury prone position players and their manager.
