caulfield12 Posted June 26, 2023 Author Share Posted June 26, 2023 202nd in fWAR out of 215 players with 200+ plate appearances... Along with Abreu at the bottom, you have Andrus at 188 and Kris Bryant at 196 for comparison. Pretty incredible falls for those three former stars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Tim just keeps digging the hole deeper for himself doesn't he? It would be better if he'd just be quiet right now get mentally and physically healthy then see what he's capable of doing. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I don't think we're misunderstanding anything about TA. He's woefully underperforming this season, and certainly seems to be distracted. His personal life is a mess, and his mistakes are public. He is a shadow of the guy who hit the walk-off HR in Iowa. We want that guy back. Maybe he misunderstands that. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Line Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 In order to be misunderstood the rest of baseball would have to be thinking about him to begin with. 3 3 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I am tired of watching him be the most overrated player in baseball so far in 2023. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Not going to read the article to completion, but I hope he is happy one day. If that’s what he wants. Maybe he doesn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kids Can Play Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Amazing how Tim wasn't complaining about being so misunderstood, when he won a batting title in 2019 and was runner up in 2020. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical end of career drop offs, although I think Abreu may have a little left in the tank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I wish he took his own advice and shut up. He created the reason he is distracted, and he fails to realize that if he started to play like he did in 2019 and 2020 that no one would be paying attention to his personal life. Unfortunately, he seems to want out of Chicago. Sorry TA, you won't be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4uckOffCommieScum Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I’m wondering if he’s even tradeable anymore?

soxfaninfl Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Ah, TA, two years ago, you were loved and adored by the fan base. I even bought a jersey after the cornfield game. The problem is not us. Bottom line, you let us down… and with comments like these, you continue to let us down. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck, Tim. I would be absolutely astonished if the Sox bought out TA, even if he doesn't get his s%*# together in 2023. The next FA class for SS is awful - TA would still have value at 1/$14M, but it certainly would be nice for him to remove his head from his ass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Eh, thought it was a reasonable puff piece. If he were hitting at all, no one would care one way or the other. I have always liked watching TA play and seeing him this bad is pretty heartbreaking, but I don’t really see a moral or psychiatric component to it. Maybe I’m wrong. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be way off on what his value is right now. We’ll see. I just know he’s probably gone at the end 2024 at the latest, and that’s good enough for me right now.

4uckOffCommieScum Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 He’s on pace for a -2 WAR, I don’t see the value in that. His WAR last year was only 1.3, that would be a negative WAR over two years. Don’t need a strong FA class to replace that. By definition, that would only require a AAAA played. Then there is the issue of correcting the dysfunction in the clubhouse. One way or another he has to be gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always liked watching TA play and seeing him this bad is pretty heartbreaking, but I don’t really see a moral or psychiatric component to it. Maybe I’m wrong. You think it’s reasonable that TA believes he is greatness and that is why people don’t like him anymore? That is the opposite of reasonable. He has never been at the top of the heap or comparable to those that are, let alone great. Yet according to recent comments, TA believes that “everybody knows” that he is the best player “everytime I take the field.” When he is nowhere close to that, then that is a high level delusion, along with the persecution complex he’s exhibiting. He’s being criticized for poor effort and performance yet in his mind its because he’s a great black man. That is straight up ludicrous. He mentions Bo Jackson, where are all the haters for this actual great? Or Mookie Betts, who has three times the career WAR at the same age, a guy TA evidently believes everybody thinks he is a better player than every time he takes the field. A clear future HOF outfielder who plays a better shortstop than he does. It’s nuts that these thoughts could even cross his mind let alone pass his lips Edited June 26, 2023 by FourEyesShottenhoffer 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 the article is just a writer re-hashing a bunch of stuff that's been written about ad nauseum likely because they are based in NY and TA visited a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
