He wants the media and fans to think he’s taking care of this epic losing situation while pretending he isn’t the one who told us. Ding, ding, ding! Signals to the masses that he is "taking charge." Wonder how many times he said they need to flush these first two weeks? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Because he was asked. Because being nice to the media aka free advertising is important to the teams finances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) We don't even have any proven players to take over a team meeting. If Jose Abreu was here he could ask: "All due respect to my teammates and you coaches, do you think we're stupid? We're not capable of better than 2-14 with this roster of nice guys, but baseball bums." What's Vaughn or Sheets going to speak with their sub-human batting averages? Or Cease? Wait, he got traded. DeJong or Nicky could get up and say: "Let's be honest. I'm just happy to be here helping out our new defensive juggernaut. You got me for defense; I'll show u some defense while hitting .150. Peace out." Edited April 16 by greg775 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 (edited) In the mlb.com team meeting story it had a blurb on Eloy coming back from injury. This proves our training staff may be overmatched. Why isn't Eloy getting advice on this. This comment makes it sound like he doesn't know what to do. A real test of Jiménez’s recovery could come from running the bases at full tilt. Jiménez couldn’t provide a definitive answer on how he would approach those situations, even feeling good and close to 100 percent. “I don’t like to say that I’m not going to do it, because at the end of the day, I try to hustle, I try to play hard every single day,” Jiménez said. “To me, saying I’m going to take it easy, did I really want to take it easy, or did I really want to keep hustling and keep pushing? Right now, I don’t have a concrete answer to that question.” https://www.mlb.com/news/eloy-jimenez-activated-from-white-sox-injured-list Edited April 16 by greg775 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrockway Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 They should hold a meeting at a batting cage. What is there to talk about, how they can't hit the baseball? I'd recommend practicing that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
