I would prefer if LeBron and Cleveland never win ever again

QUOTE (Jake @ May 31, 2016 -> 11:28 PM) He's started 8 out of the last 12 games and at the beginning of that stretch, he was still being outhit by Rollins. Robin isn't going to just quit Rollins cold turkey, it's going to be a continuation of the gradual transition that we've seen so far. It's a matter of fairness to the players involved. And for the love of god, let's not lose our minds over matchups. Rollins has some noticeable R/L splits this year—but not over his career—but he's not the only player involved. There may be a goal here of protecting Saladino against what they expect are tough matchups for him. And, of course, he played Saladino today against a lefty and that seemed to work out pretty well. Let's not sweat the small stuff. Rollins is on track to slowly lose his share of the starts, but he won't lose them all right away. And the starts he gets aren't necessarily going to be tailored to his perceived strengths, but may have more to do with the schedule and what matchups they think work best and worst for Saladino Fairness? It's not fair to start the guy who is better at defense, better at hitting RHP, and played a hell of a game the night before? I guess we have to make those vets happy and be "fair" to him because we signed him to be the starting SS and man it wouldn't be fair to sit him in favor of the guy who is better. This isn't a game of hopscotch at recess, this is Major League Baseball where when you suck and someone is playing better then you, you lose your job. And the manager needs to go with that stats and the hot hand so the team can have a better chance to when the game. We have been playing the fairness cards way too long with vets on our teams and it is about time that ends. There is absolutely no reason Rollins should be starting tomorrow against a RHP.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 31, 2016 -> 10:28 PM) Robin confirmed that Rollins is still starting tomorrow. Robin is a f***ing moron. Let's not start the guy who is putting together the best at bats right now

QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ May 31, 2016 -> 10:32 PM) Saladino is still a 0 WAR player so i still consider that one spot where we could improve if there are bargain bin guys available Tough crowd

QUOTE (oldsox @ May 31, 2016 -> 09:38 PM) Saladino probably won't start tomorrow. Almost positive Robin said earlier Rollins was starting tomorrow.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 31, 2016 -> 09:16 PM) How do you not at least have Saladino playing 2B tmrw? Talk about shooting yourself in the foot. Rollins should be sitting, it is a simple as that.

I am not use to this winning thing this past 25 days. Saladino is the man and one of our better players right now.

3!! We win!! Holy s*** we won a game!!

2!!

1!!

Is Shuck better at CF then Eaton?

I think Jason Coats needs to be given a chance here soon

3 outs. Can it be done?

Clutch hitting!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 31, 2016 -> 08:46 PM) They're GRINDY. The problem isn't producing enough grinders, it's not producing enough studs. We have had enough Carlos Sanchezes and Micah Johnsons recently. None of the guys you listed would be a grinder or a guy that plays the game the right way.

I told everyone this a month ago.. What do I know though?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 31, 2016 -> 08:40 PM) Chris Getz, Brent Morel and Ryan Sweeney say hello. Umm no?

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 31, 2016 -> 08:37 PM) I think I've been just as vocal as you on the pro-Saladino train!! To be fair, the reasoning is quite obvious He plays the game the right way and he is one of those grindy players we always lack on our teams. I swear to god if Saladino is sitting tomorrow Hahn needs to call Robin and tell him to leave

f***ing Tyler Saladino man!! That is my man, told yall he needs to be starting a long time ago. MVP MVP!!

Quick hands Saladino

Delmonico hit his first AAA home run tonight. He is looking pretty damn good

Swinging at ball 4

Looked safe

Can we score 2?

QUOTE (fathom @ May 31, 2016 -> 07:49 PM) Play Saladino at 2b then Or you don't play Jimmy against a RHP. Boom, mind blown
