Imagine the trade deadline haul we could get if he is on pace to hit 40. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick Mercedes Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 (edited) Am I understanding this correctly. Eloy and company never tried to play a majority of a season before? Now, the plan is to not only do that, but to do what nobody else is doing, like an iron man. Eloy is a troll guys.

Balta1701 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Ironically, with guys that have these long injury histories, failing to get them enough rest is likely to get them hurt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 1 hour ago, Buehrle>Wood said: It's baseball. Play them every single game. Seriously, Eloy is a DH who has to run max effort maybe 1-2 times a game. There’s no reason he shouldn’t be playing 150+ if able. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like many time when the Sox hitters hustle down the line on grounders they wind up with a hammy or a groin strain. Wonder if the Sox can correct that finally. Somebody's always pulling up it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a fine line between the concepts. It was the whole deliberately playing at 75-85% effort that caused the problems. Same debate as that not going all-out in the NBA All-Star games and playing conservatively or hesitantly might even lead to more injuries…although that would be incredibly difficulty to quantify.

Yeah they are like a suit you rented for a wedding, but then the wedding got canceled and you never got to use it, so now you just have to wear it every day to get your moneys worth anyway even if it is not, like, the BEST thing to do. It's just what has to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Yoan seems to have structural issues in his back. Good luck getting over those. Eloy has chronic soft tissue injuries, those should be easier to prevent and treat in theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
