Baron Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Well I think we should get ahead on the next rebuild. Trade Gio,Cease,Moncada,Robert and Eloy. Let's get back to losing so everyone on here will be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EloyRedGloveSWAG Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Why are they still doing this stupid rule this year? Why were they doing this in the first place? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpringfieldFan Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Moncada is starting to convince me in the wisdom of investing in depth rather than shiny objects. Depth isn't exciting but doesn't risk becoming money down the drain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 crochet has about as much command as Cease on a bad day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusguyman Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I love everyone blaming the Manfred rule as if we didn't have a perfectly good opportunity to nail the runner at home and probably prevent them from scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 I guess Williams running from second base makes more sense... but can't believe we can actually do anything positive. And of course we are entering a stretch of 11 games in a row and will be without Kopech and Crochet for two games and not even sure about Hendriks' availability.

RagahRagah Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) This team is just not good. I wanna believe missing Eloy and Tim is really significant, and it is! But they are playing bad on almost all cylinders. Aside from Lynn, Kopech and Yermin, there is not much to be happy or positive about. Some good at bats from a couple other guys but not enough to make a big enough difference. The idea of this potentially being a WS caliber team is flat out farcical. Edited April 11, 2021 by RagahRagah 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 1 minute ago, Tony said: Stop it. TLR had the lead going to the 9th and his HIGHLY paid closer more than fresh. This isn't at all on Tony, today. Dude, he’s barely used Hendriks all year.  He may be fresh but he’s also rusty as fuck given he only pitches every four or five days.  I’m not giving Liam a free pass here, but pitchers are a creature of habit and La Russa has to do a better job keeping these guys involved or they’ll get out of rhythm.  Can’t just Liam in saves only situations and expect him to be sharp all the time.

Imagine that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 Sorry, if you want to throw blame for this one, it is 1a) Shit hitting, 1b) Shit closer performance. Â TLR didn't do anything to lose this, the lack of necessary performance by the guys on the field, did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
