vilehoopster Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Does anyone only see a minor league deal with Moncada also? I can't imagine anyone would guarantee him any money at all with his injury (and not caring) history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksnort Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) Didn't know the angels needed a catcher. Seriously though, What a fall from grace Edited January 22 by Ducksnort 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, Tim is about two years ahead of Yoan on the fall off scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there was reported interest but I think it was before that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grinder Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Seems like yesterday he hit that walk off HR in Iowa and was at the top of his game. Oh how the mighty have fallen.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Anderson was one of the few Sox players anybody'd ever heard of during his tenure. I also wish him well. That'd be neat if he got good again. Abreu should sign a minor league deal somewhere too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I hope Tim regains form and salvages his career. And find where his power went because I thought that was what made him interesting in 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSox2023 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 It’s a bit strange that a guy with the career line below was once considered a burgeoning star player. .278/.308/.411/.718 I know the last two seasons have hurt his overall career numbers. Is there any way to see his career line right after the 2022 season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me of that time, probably in 2023, when Anderson was on first base and Abreu was playing first for Astros, and Timmy allegedly said I hate this f.....g place.

hogan873 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I still think some of his decline was due to his off field problems. The mental and emotional issues had to have taken a toll. I hope he makes the Angels MLB team, but, man, what could have been... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Also shows the aging curve really hits up the middle players quite early now…closer to 31-33. Unless you’re Jose Altuve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but he was also the cause of the more recent personal issues. Edited January 23 by WhiteSox2023 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am once again reminding people that Hanser Alberto's inability to field a ball led to Tim suffering a leg injury that the Sox rushed him back from, because they only had a winning record with him in the lineup. Of course, he relied heavily on his legs. Throw in the team drama (which he was a part of) and it was a recipe for disaster. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I was always concerned about Tim. I am not one who goes for theatrics. Competing at the major league level is serious business. A player needs to be serious about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was definitely a factor BUT Tim also derailed his career by his off field issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
