  1. Yoan is weird. When he walks a ton, he doesn"t hit as well. If he's moved down, I hope some one tells him to be more aggressive. Another way to go might be to move him up to 2nd and Cesar down to 9th. Yoan has a very high OBP, and would score a lot of runs in the front of line up.
  2. No, TLR is ultimately responsible. If it's close, you make the call. Waiting on the booth is stupid in a close game. Challenges don't carry over. There is nothing to lose. Face it. We're being out managed in every game.
  3. In 2005 we had a 15 game lead at the all star break. Indians cut it to 1 game with 6 to play. Nothing is assured in this life.
  4. Yeah, he's terrible right now. I hope he's tough enough mentally to bounce back before the playoffs. If he does we'll have a chance.
  5. I tip my hat to AE. Never in my wildest dreams did I think he could become such a good 2 way player.
  6. I especially like when he took Hendricks out of the bullpen rotation for 6 days. He needed the rest.
  7. One thing about his speed that puzzles me. How come it takes him so long to get out of the box after hitting? It's a small thing, but it probably costs him .2 WAR a year. He'd get more infield hits and less GIDP's if he could correct it.
  8. I honestly think of him as mediocre closer. Average save %. Throws hard, but wild in the strike zone. Always has to go right at them. It seems like he can't succeed if his stuff isn't perfect. I'll be the first to admit Larussa didn.t do him any favors by sitting him for 6 games before hand.
  9. will LH be demoted now ? I'd rather risk it with Kopech or Kimbrall in a play off game than LHGS(liamhendrickgascan).
  10. 6 days off. Larussa is a moron. 10 homers in 43 innings. Hendricks is a bum.
  11. Check my July post. Colome was healthy again. 8-9 good outings in a row. Could have got him for a song. Maybe even a short medley. Instead the Sox did what they did. Waste of talent. Waste of money. Heuer even up for Kimbrall, maybe.
  12. They aren't. Its not close. Please try to get out of fantasy land.
  13. Said several times to get Colome for free. I hope Madrigal and Codi H. have great careers
  14. With the return of Robert and Engel, plus the addition of Hernandez. How good can we be when the playoffs roll around ? Moncada and TA have been really good all year. Abreu has done well even with his struggles at the plate. Vaughns ability is to catch what he reaches. With Robert and Engel around he wont have to reach as many. Zavala and Grandal should be fine if Yasmani gets back early enough. I've heard guys b**** about Goodwin, but playing RF only he should be ok too.
  15. .350 career OBA. 95 walks in 2018. Was hitting HR's in Cleveland probably out of necessity. Different teams have different needs some times. He sure looks like a guy who will do what is needed.
  16. One guy who could provide depth at SP is Kade McClure. He's getting close to being ready for MLB. Lost a year with a leg injury, but is putting it together at Birmingham. His numbers aren't that impressive at first glance, but has pitched very well for the last two months or so. Good fastball, good slurve and working on the change up. Could fight it out with Jimmy lambert for 6th starter next year. Might be more than that in 2023.
  17. Shocked to see Reyno is still only 27 years old. Lots of good relievers are failed starters. Usually it means the guy can only throw 1-2 pitches for strikes with any consistency. As a starter, if one of those pitches isn't working you get creamed.
  18. I wonder if the Sox made this trade because of Hendricks soul crushing homer on Wednesday. He really is a moron. Heck of a good arm but too stupid or stubborn to adjust to the situation at hand.
  19. Some one tell Liam to cool it with the macho shit. If a guy owns you, he owns you. Don't "challenge" him every time. Hendricks is a dumb ass.
  20. The Astros vs. White Sox paradigm has shifted 180 degrees. These 2 wins and the Lynn signing has really made for a great week end.
