Btw, I heard on the radio that Robert initially told the Sox and MLB he didn't want to do the derby. It was only from all his Cuban countrymen hammering him and making him feel guilty, until he caved in and agreed to do it.
July 11, 20232 yr I would have bet that this would happen. No one should be shocked. Edited July 11, 20232 yr by The Mighty Mite

July 11, 20232 yr Man I already hated the current timed format (vs. set amount of outs) and this just cements it.

Actually you did warn against Robert doing the HRD as I remember your response: If I had any say, I’d tell him to forget the HR Derby. Right now he’s in a good place with his swing, timing and mechanics and the Derby could screw that up and with his history of injuries we might see a trip to the IL. I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Many got on you for saying that, but you were right and kudos to you. His swing, timing and mechanics were his best ever. He didn't need those stupid 50 swings like he would never be swinging in a real game. Imagine if we were in first place, how everybody here would be screaming right now how dumb it was.
July 11, 20232 yr Oh well, doesn't really matter honestly. Tightness in the calf is a two week injury at most. Hopefully the Sox lose every game he's out so hahn continues to be a naked emperor.
