This is a real Sox/Cubs game headline? “Burger boasts more versatility in first MLB start at 2B”

Your team is going nowhere, Burger missed much of his career with significant injuries. Why not let him concentrate on hitting his first full MLB season. He has been struggling since he was tasked to play everyday for the first time and after pitchers found a successful way to attack him.

If this is a thing that makes sense longterm, let him work on it the entire offseason and Spring Training to put Jake in the best chance to succeed in 2024.

Jake Burger

  • 2017 Games Played 51 (Minors)
  • 2018-2020 Games Played 0
  • 2021 (82 AAA + 15 Sox)
  • 2022 (39 AAA + 51 Sox)
  • 2023 (5 AAA + 83 Sox)

In the meantime trade a few of your current six DHs (Burger, Grandal, Eloy, Perez, Sheets, Vaughn) on the 40 man roster, and stop hoarding more.

-20 in the standings worried about headlines 

More worried about the ST Movies Section.

Barbieheimer weekend passes and the -20 has driven so many past contributors away.

Feels like they're going to lose a whole generation of fans without wholesale changes.

 

(Well, at least we're not the NW Athletic Dept...I guess?)

If Perez's best position is DH they're in real trouble at the catcher's spot.

Unless you're suggesting a Sal Perez acquisition?
