Not saying it was TA's fault... that was an totally inept sequence by the Sox, but the end result is he's hurt again and more than likely is going to miss time which has happened to him multiple times over the past few seasons sometimes landing on the IL more than once in a year.

hankchifan Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 1 hour ago, Lip Man 1 said: The thing is there is enough of a track record for guys like Moncada, Jimenez, Anderson, Robert the "so-called" keys to the rebuild for the Sox to know... absolutely know that they were going to get hurt yet again. Like 59 wrote it's part of baseball. So what does the brain-trust do? Basically nothing over the off-season to build up depth which they basically knew they were going to need. It's not a mystery with these guys. the slightest twinge and they go on the IL. That's some great front office isn't it? But it does give them an excuse again when things go south...'Oh well...you know it was all the injuries!' 🤡 By the way now with Middleton up, the Sox have three non-roster invitees on the 26 man roster. Team should be renamed the Chicago Frail Sox. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kepler IL, Kiriloff IL, Polanco IL, Correa hurt back, Gallo hurt hammy. Buxton isn't going to play the OF until mid May at the earliest. Its just baseball. Guys get dinged up. But I know that won't stop you from thinking this is something unique to the White Sox. Completely forgot about Polanco. Near MVP level half of 2021. Then another reason that lineup looks different is no Sano and Gary Sanchez...Vasquez completely eliminates the opposition running game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 “Moncada has had this nagging thing for a little bit,” Grifol said. “But 10 games [into the season], we’re going to err on the side of caution. If they miss a couple of games, they miss a couple of games.” A couple games...that's fine. But if it turns into weeks or a constant nagging issue? That's another story.

vilehoopster Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 On the topic of Sheets cutting off the throw home. According to Ozzie on the postgame show, that cut off mistake is on Grandal. Ozzie said the catcher can see where the guy is rounding 3rd, the cutoff man can’t. It up to the catcher to communicate to cutoff man to let it through or cut it off. He began and ended his comment on the topic saying it was Grandal’s mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
