Lotta good things happened in this game. We played a good, clean game and took our scoring chances. Huh.

    I mean can we get a few weeks of decency before we start taking victory laps?

  • Cool, have fun with that. No one is claiming he’s figured it out, just willing to entertain the idea that he’s made some strides. Somehow this concept is difficult to grasp. Also, those post

This version is the 6-8 WAR superstar and that WILL get a return. He needs to stay healthy obviously. 

Lineup is getting alot better in the next few weeks. Hopefully May's results get better too with those additions.

slash lines looking a bit better. don't have a lineup full of 160/200/250 anymore at least.

Nice to see Vargas keep hitting despite being a guaranteed bust and out of baseball in two years or whatever premature nonsense was being spewed here.

Nice to get a win. From the highlights it looked like a very small crowd to see it.

It was a Wednesday day game with rain all around the area all day.

He's been good lately but he's got a lot to still prove. He is 25 and is finally producing a bit, keep it up.

 

Cuban connection resurgence led by top prospect 

Venezuelan infielder hitting 

Slappy white dude at second

All that's missing is a masher at first base and suddenly we're checking all of the Sox stereotypes. Summon him.

For sure. Don’t get me wrong, he could still easily end up being a bust and out of baseball in a few years. I just never understand stating something like that as fact so quickly instead of, you know, letting it actually play out.

to be fair he did look completely overmatched in every facet of the game. putting on that muscle was key for him and it's paid off. he at least looks the part of a MLB player physically now. He also seems to have put in a lot of work defensively as he's been fine at 3B.

He was pretty much the worst hitter in baseball since the trade up until this hot streak.

Right. It's not like he was just a bad regular, he was arguably the worst regular in MLB since the trade, competing with our own Andrew Vaughn. So he's gotten hot for a couple weeks, well keep it up. Finishing with like a 250/300/450 line would be a really good season.

Which is the smaller MLB sample size for Vargas?  His first 650 or so plate appearances with both the Dodgers and White Sox in which he was one of the worst hitters in baseball or his most recent 50 or so plate appearances in the past 10 games in which he is hitting out of his mind?

It would be great if he keeps it up but I wouldn’t wager a dollar on it.  The law of averages will catch up with him.

Some posters were sweating Gavin Sheets’ hot start and @caulfield12 kept raving about it.  I said give it time, and his massive swoon has already begun.
