While I agree in principle, Alonso's 9M batting .188 is going to make that difficult. Maybe if Abreu continues to rake they'll finally move him, and at that point they can move Eloy to DH. Still, I don't think they're going to move Eloy to DH until they're absolutely sure he can't hack it out there, so 2021. 2019 doesn't really matter so they can afford to send him out there as long as he knows the difference between a no-doubter and a catchable fly ball.

The 2nd part is key. He's so bad out there he's already gotten himself injured twice in 4 weeks, both attempting to rob a fly ball that was a no doubt HR.

Wow, that takes brass balls to say that as a pro athlete.

I wasn't talking about rushing him to the big leagues, but trying to get him to AAA by the end of the season. He's going to have to go on the 40 man soon to protect him from rule V anyway.

So, I finally took the plunge and got my foot operation after dealing with chronic pain since I was 12. Been contemplating surgery for a decade but couldn't find a dr I trusted until now.

I really dgaf what the Bears do after the 5th round. Most of those guys don't make teams anyway. I love the Montgomery and Ridley picks

Who is this guy?

I guess if you had your expectations set properly it isn't as disappointing. I wasn't upset about the fact they didn't sign Machado, because I never really expected them to guarantee him 300M anyway, but the fact they had those bullshit options and that is why they blundered him away was beyond infuriating. That meant they might have been willing to guarantee him the dollars but they got too cute with the options. I truly believe Hahn and Kenny outsmarted themselves.

I used to be known as "hot take Parkman" but some of these guys put me to shame. Some of these guys are really becoming insufferable. They have a board for those type of people it's called WSI. They'd fit right in there. I apologize for blowing up the Bears thread with negativity last year, but losing Kopech and the Bears blowing a 20-3 lead to GB in a 48 hr period pushed me over the edge. I try not to be as cynical as I used to be but I couldn't help myself after that weekend. Just a gut punch. Had I known the Bears were going to win 12 games last year Wouldn't have taken it so hard. About Eloy get him the fuck out of the OF.

Rodon is incredibly frustrating. He seems like he has a giva shit problem. I think he needs longer to warm up after his shoulder injury and he hasn't adjusted yet. Hes throwing 93-94 toward the end of outings but at the start he's 88-90. That screams a warm up issue. It seems like his arm isn't ready to pitch, and I know the Sox have been harping on him to take better care of his left arm.

It depends on if he can catch the ball. If Rondon is as bad of a 2B as Eloy is an OF, then maybe not.

Absolutely love that they picked Ridley, bravo Pace

You can add Hansen to that list as well

Hopefully Rutherford gets going after his HR yesterday

^^^

Yeah. At that point, I never thought he'd be this good, and it is still only April.

C'mon, you gotta call him MANderson

Abso fucking lutely

MANderson Gone flippin dat bat gone flippin dat bat

Holy shit!!!

C'mon, did you really think Cordell wouldn't strike out vs Joe Jimenez?

Omfg let it happen

They're going to find some way to lose this game, aren't they?

Moncada is WR fast at 6-2, and yet Ricky won't let him steal bags. I smell wage suppression. Can't let him get 30-30, he'll get mucho dinero in arbitration /unclejerry

wtf happened? they're winning? how? It was 9-1 when I turned it off.
