Worth a gamble yes but there was a dire need for left handed hitting and relying on a ‘lab experiment’ was not the way to go. Also the fact that Grandal suck hasn’t helped either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No arguments. The options that only cost money were all right handed and they desperately need another left handed hitter though. We'd all have rather traded for Pedersen and we'll leave it at that.

This organization does not have much of a tolerance for criticism. See Piercall, Jimmy And Caray, Harry...Jerry Will probably hire Chisoxfan Mike instead Good god, anybody but that meatball dope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCCWS Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 1 hour ago, Jack Parkman said: Mazara was worth the gamble. At least they only wasted 50 games on him rather than 162. He's only been back for a week though, so maybe give him some more time. If Mazara doesn't work it didn't cost much. I'd definitely like to see a straight platoon of Collins and Encarnacion the rest of the season, even though I'm not a fan of Collins. Make sure that he sucks before moving on. Jack: A straight platoon of Collins and EE reduces at bats for Grandal/McCann. Not sure that improves the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collins has no spot on this team. Only useful as an emergency catcher when both Grandal and McCann are in the lineup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
