March 30, 20215 yr Not a fan of Hamilton making the team as wasting a roster spot in this age of huge bullpens for a pinch runner/defensive replacement who can't hit doesn't make much sense but as long Vaughn is playing left basically every time the Sox lead after 6 or 7 he will get pulled from the game and Defensively replaced. Ideally Vaughn gets on base in the 7th, then gets pinch run for and then Hamilton stays in the game for defense. If the Sox had a more capable defensive left fielder carrying Hamilton would make no sense of course as there wouldn't be enough opportunities to create value for him.

I really don’t see how Hamilton survives once Engel comes back.

March 30, 20215 yr Ohtani got shelled tonight and left with a blister. We may avoid him this weekend.

Idk how much longer before they just put him in RF and be done with it. Ohtani trying to do both diminishes his value as both a hitter and a pitcher. Dude needs to just pick one. IMO he's a better hitter than pitcher. Edited March 30, 20215 yr by Jack Parkman

I saw him pitch in person a few years ago before the injury and he was ELECTRIC. Can't just ignore his stuff. Worth making it work if you're them.
