Don't send Colson there imo.

He looks more lost than Mune did when he was in his funk.It would be a bad and demoralizing idea to do that to a young player who also helped get you there. You have 8 other guys out there, plus he's not a liability on the field. Of course he looks more lost since he has little MLB experience. We've gotten into this habit thinking young players are a finished product.

Don't send Colson there imo.a lot of players do this on their own as wellwe like to create strawmenI think the Sox are now up to date with tech where a player can work on hitting.

7 hours ago7 hr Personally I think it’s nuts to play Colson if the goal is to win playoff games. The infield can survive with Meidroth at short and Ant at second plus on offense they both add punch. Colson is dead weight. Whatever they do with him or he does with himself during the off season is his next chapter. Right now he’s a liability that doesn’t belong.
4 hours ago4 hr I’m not selling all of my stock in Colson but there’s certainly a lot of work that needs to2 hours ago, Lightly Folded said:Personally I think it’s nuts to play Colson if the goal is to win playoff games.

Dude really doesn't say the corret things at timesHe’s probably a really nice guy, I want the guy to return to what he was last year and the first half of this year but this second half was really brutal watching him. I been a fan since 1952 and I’ve never seen anything like it and I don’t know how many teams in MLB would have continued trotting him out there, I’m sure quite a few teams would have benched him or even sent him back to the minors.
