A-Train to 35th Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 2 hours ago, Colome's Hat said: I like Beinintendi but his vax status freaked me out as well as the fact that he doesn't hit for that much power. The Sox need a big left handed thumper. If the Sox can't get Soto, and quite frankly given the price tag I don't think Soto is being dealt, Bryan Reynolds would be the ideal fit. Bring up Colas, he's Left handed and has to be better than Sheets or Vaughn in RF with the strong arm we need to stop runners from taking the extra base on every single hit to RF. I don't care if he doesn't hit a lick....bring him up before Hahn trades him away. BTW he's been mashing in Double AA. https://www.mlb.com/news/oscar-colas-homers-twice-for-the-2nd-time-in-3-games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Again to reiterate my previous point on Gallo vs RHP. 2019 to 2021 w/ TEX: 122 wRC+ Away splits w/ NYY: 123 wRC+ Home splits w/ NYY: 92 wRC+ Maybe playing in New York is a problem, maybe it’s not, but if the cost is a song I feel it’s a gamble worth taking. Additionally, let’s not ignore his 28 defensive runs saved in RF since 2019, which 4th overall amongst RFs and even more impressive on a per innings basis. He’s far from a perfect player even when things are going right, but we desperately need power from the LH side and better defense in RF and he might be able to address both on the cheap.

He flat out stinks right now. Need a nickname for him too. Any ideas? LuPuss and Lynn going from top Cy Young contenders to worthless is just as detrimental to the team's performance as the offense.

Menechino's approach is PERFECT for this. Turn Gallo into an opposite field singles hitter! But seriously if anyone is gonna do well with an oppo approach it's an 80 raw power guy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahn could have cut bait with a $1M buyout, but his enormous ego wouldn't let him. Had to try to salvage something, anything, for giving up Heuer who was much better than Kimbrel to finish the year and still under control for years once he returns from surgery, and their wasted Top First Round pick. There was no trade market beyond LA for Kimbrel, none. Few teams were spending that money on a closer, all already were set except LA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
