Lip Man 1 Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 I wish I could see and hear how he said this. In print it sounds like Grifol was a little testy towards DVS of the Sun-Times for wondering why Burger isn't playing. “I’m not going to sit there and explain why,” Grifol said. “Just know that if [Burger isn’t] playing, that if it’s Sheets or somebody else playing, that’s a better matchup that particular day. We’re going to put the best matchup out there. And that’s a good problem to have. “To provide what Burger provides, who doesn’t want Burger in the lineup? I want him, too. However, we only have nine spots. And it’s really not nine spots because he can’t catch, play shortstop or center field.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 No one should have a problem with Sheets playing tonight given the circumstances. I'm cool with it at the expense of Eloy or Moncada though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 A bit of randomness. I'm f*cked if karma kicks hard. After arriving at our first night stop of an eight week road trip I realize I'm wearing "The Boys are Back" opening day 2021 shirt. Of s%*# we know how that turned out.

pcq Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I would have little hesitation handing Jake a mask and a chest protector. I caught for years because no one else wanted to. Work on your throws and framing a little. If you can't stop a ground ball you are not a player. Jiminy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
