I wouldn't care if it was you who helps someone get better, A player is essentially in charge of his own destination. Help can come from anyone if you choose to accept it. This tape will self destruct in 10 seconds.

July 13, 20205 yr Can't believe everyone just let Vaughn ask for defensive help by the worst fielder in the history of the sport

July 14, 20205 yr An interesting tidbit on Guerrero https://www.mlb.com/whitesox/news/white-sox-youth-movement-in-2020-season
July 14, 20205 yr From the game thread after the game we heard about Giolito say Madrigal and Vaughn were a pain in his ass. To expand on that here is the full quote from whitesox.com “Today, facing Nick Madrigal and Andrew Vaughn, they're a pain in my [butt],” Giolito said. “You've got Nick spitting on some fastballs just out of the zone, shooting one to right field. Andrew Vaughn, when I was throwing to him in quarantine -- back when we were in California, I was throwing live bullpens, and he faced me -- he's one of the few guys I've noticed that can really see my changeup well, and he'll spit on my changeup just out of the zone.

I thought everyone knew but basically it's a group of bad things that happen to fuck up a whole situation. I don't think it was question of "what does a clusterfuck mean" but "what is a clusterfuck" in response to someone stating "This is a clusteruck" as in specify what the clusterfuck is.

Ahh thought we all knew that . Covid 19 making a mess of everything, players and umps opting out, players testing positive, problems with testing and results, negotiations to get the season started going haywire, no fans ,. I'm sure i missed a lot of things. We're kind of lucky baseball isn't considered much of a contact sport like football, basketball and hockey. It's a lot harder to limit contact and practice social distancing in those sports.

July 14, 20205 yr Is it too much to hope that Angel Hernandez has opted out? That could help to redeem 2020 a bit.
