The time to make that trade was the offseason.

As someone who was a big Yermin detractor because of his iron glove, he did try and play third, first, and catcher in the minors. He just sucks at all of them and he's certainly not the first person to be defensively challenged, no matter where he's been placed. Could he improve his defense at catcher? Yeah, probably. Could it also be a thing that he just doesn't get it? Also possible.

lmao, @ron883 you win, tray is just a wannabe troll who found his muse after everyone ignored his "Andrew Vaughn is a short, fat kid who can't play baseball" schtick. Thread begins to move on from the unwritten rules stupidity? Better rev up them engines boys, cause Tray will bring it back.

Your reading comprehension is denser than a neutron star mating with a black hole.

Surely, it's impossible to outmanage Shildt two games in a row.

Right size, right shape.

Probably announcing that they're building a memorial to Eloy and Robert in left-center field.

This is just the absolute dumbest slash line and I fucking love it. It perfectly represents Manfred's unilateral decision to completely deaden the ball.

I would honestly take any combination of Vaughn, Mendick, Rutherford, Sheets, and Engel over this.

Welp, I don't pay attention enough Nah, I haven't watched any DBZ since GT.

He posted this on Instagram. It probably means he can begin to start the lightest of rehab soon, contextually speaking. Where my other nerds at? I haven't watched DBZ since I was a small child.

Ron, there's an art to your trolling. You're a da Vinci to their finger paint.

La Russa said Hendriks was ready for the 10th if it was tied. Tony is the dude who plans out his entire life by freshman year of college, but doesn't make a backup plan for when he fails the classes to get into his chosen major.

So what is that, 5 losses we can pin on Tony that a competent manager (maybe a replacement level manager?) would not have?

The La Russa stans now calling this an awesome loss is peak denial that we have a manager asleep at the wheel.

I'd throw anything in RF or CF right now.

Everyone looking back at Jimmy Cordero and Renteria: (I say this as someone who was very critical of Renteria late in the season)

Also, this thread has united so many people: Greg, Ray Ray, Ragah, Chicago White Sox, you, me, Tony (not La Russa), caulfield, southsider and so many more. If that ain't evidence that TLR done fucked up, I don't know what is.

Thank god this hasn't seemed to affect the clubhouse culture, if Moncada Day was any indication.

Rutherford up to .314/.375/.865.

Nah, that's whenever fans vote a terrible starter into the ASG. Literally, by definition, fan-generated. This has been generated by Yermin, TLR, Tim Anderson, Evan Marshall, Giolito, Lynn, Sabathia, Trevor Bauer, Alex Wood, Jomboy, and more.

I mean, if the Sox sent a ROY of the year candidate down to AAA for hitting a home run because it went against their manager's unwritten code, that would cause an unholy shitstorm.

Excellent choice in music my friend. Did you ever happen to listen to the entire song? Because here's a verse:

All right, to avoid shutting down this thread, let's keep terms like "LaRussians" and all that jazz out of this thread. No need to drag politics concerning our former president into here.

smh disrespecting the game
