I like Jake and he’s nice to have around but this is sorta where I’m at. He’s not a very good hitter outside of the pop and isn’t an MLB 3B. He’s not an everyday player imo.
Strange move. Why not Padilla or Peralta or some other reliever. Those guys suck, but the pen is fried after the last 2 games and May as well get some help back there for the weekend. Instead you call up Scholtens to take Clevingers spot in the rotation which doesn’t come until Monday. Stupid.
Don't disagree, just moreso meant giving an org guy like Remillard his big moment would have some sense when he was hitting.
Regardless, I would imagine Burger is playing 3B nearly everyday until Yoan is back.
Remillard would have made more sense a 4-6 weeks ago. He's been awful for well over a month, dropping his OPS below .700 in a hitter's paradise.
Doubt he plays much, tho.
He actually got fired because the athletic laid off a ton a writers. I don't think the Sox have anything to do with it. Still an absolutely brutal decision, and I snap cancelled my sub.
There is nothing wrong with Yoan being a 1.5-2 WAR player with upside for more. He’s absolutely overpaid, but that’s frankly irrelevant. He’s the best 3B option on the team.
