  1. Ooof, I'm already counting down that Benintendi contract.
  2. I'll take better umpire work vs trying to end games quicker. Get it right MLB
  3. There is something special about his lack of fear up there, even at 0-2 vs a lefty.
  4. Benintendi and Robert need to be flipped 2/3. Just not enough hard contact from Andrew to stick as a #3 hitter.
  5. While the attention and blame was being pointed to the corpse of Tony LaRussa, one week in and it's easy to see that Rick Hahn was probably more at fault for the Sox mess than people want to put blame at. Awful and expensive bullpen, a starting rotation that has zero pitch efficiency to get past 5-6 innings, a lineup lacking in HR power (and getting destroyed in your own park in that department). But let's hand out the richest contract in team history to a guy who slugged under .400 last season. ?
  6. Understood, but you can't manage every game with the bullpen looking to cover 15 outs. The team will be toast by July at this pace. Lynn just needs to be better, he's one of the highest paid players of not the highest on this team
  7. People already bitching about "why was he still in there." Relax the f*** up. The starters are going to need to eat up innings , quickly. Bullpen is running on fumes one week in because of the lack of SP innings. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
  8. So in essence, we lose the lone 30 /100 threat from this lineup.
  9. I agree with you here, but Rick Hahn sold us on him as being a huge part of the "Core". We are down to having him DH only, and being lucky to getting 120 games from him each season. That's pathetic and so disappointing.
  10. Re-read, I'm not saying keeping him from the OF was a bad idea. It was a great idea, he's a negative defender. But the fact that everyone assumed health for this guy just cause they kept the glove away from him it's pretty comical at this point.
  11. LOL, it took 5 games. Lowering the opportunities is irrelevant for this guy. Yes, that's simple math right there.
  12. It is one of the most uncomfortable humans to watch run, ever. Spanky LaValliere, Paul Konerko, even the Big Hurt looked so much more athletic when running the bases. This guy is just weird.
  13. Remember when "not playing the OF" was a popular take to keep this guy healthy?

    Kopech

    I'm pretty sure he was tipping his pitches. I was sitting 18 rows up on the on deck circle for the Giants and right after Joc hit the 1st HR, he immediately talked to the next hitter about it as he returned to the dugout from circling the bases. Joc was all over Kopech in the 3 ABs he faced him.
  15. Yay, more stress innings for a shaky bullpen. Zero killer instinct.
  16. Hahn has invested so much to this pen, it's been average at best for awhile now . I don't care how many managers you fire, him keeping this job is so insulting and so Reinsdorf .
  17. Every year we seem to hold on to dead weight a year too long. Ruiz is that guy.
