Yep. And then even after he saw it do that he didn't even run hard (by his standards). Fucking loser. 

Such a little b****. Imagine being the third overall pick and then putting in so little work that you're literally the worst player in MLB 5 years later just coasting on your glory days from college. He didn't even lose his career to drugs or women or booze he just doesn't seem to GAF about baseball. As a fan that's not acceptable. Go the hell away.

In no way is he the future of this club nor capable of bringing back anything in a trade....just release his ass.

1) Robert Jr looks like he couldn't hit me. He was one of the major talents  2 years ago. Unless  something really changes I could see him not in the majors shortly. 2) Why  did Rojas bat for Elko in the 9th inning?  I really get the impression  this organization doesn't think highly of Elko.

That HR by Elko was the hardest hit HR at Wrigley this season and the hardest hit HR by the Sox this season. 111 MPH.

Plus he's the only one to take a walk.

Getz said as much a few weeks ago with his (paraphrasing) 'we only care about players with a long term future...'

Seven straight by the Cubs over the Sox and they have now tied them in the all-time series result.

They'll make it eight in a row Sunday with the Sox probably scoring three runs or less again.

If the Sox were going to have any kind of decent season this year, they needed offense from Robert and Vaughn. Neither should be on the club anymore. Don't know much about Elko, but it is time to give him a chance. How can he be that much worse? Don't know what has happened to Robert. Put him in line with Elo and Moncada.

this will be another straight up massacre lmao

Sox lineup is AAA quality at best.  Noticed on game yesterday that all position players had OPS numbers below MLB averages.  Hard to compete unless our pitching is superb.  The Cubs have a much better team with more weapons.  IMO.
