I don't think they ever thought Eloy would phase out of being an OF this early in his career. That's the problem right there.
Vaugh and Abreu sharing 1B/DH would have been fine.
Yep, it's the Indians meltdown game all over. Guy warms up and then the Sox put up a 5 spot.
If he's warm, then you have to use him. That's just the way it's always been explained to me.
I don't know if you'd want to start burning bench players this early in the game. It's only the top of the 6th.
You have Yoan just coming back from and injury, it leaves your bench thin with limited options if something happens later on.
And God knows we can't finish a game without players going down.
Cueto showing me a lot here today.
Gutting it out from the back issue, and now putting up a zero vs the heart of the order after given the lead.
Take note Lucas.
This might be the half inning that catapults the season.
All started by you, Mr Leury. Hahn playing chess, while the rest of the league plays checkers.
2nd half last season he was a lot more selective up there and picked a zone and went with it. And his numbers showed the results.
This season, he's just going up there in hack mode no matter what.
Not sure if he is pressing, but it's a rough watch.
He signed his international deal right around the time we signed Luis Robert.
Not calling Luis Robert a bust by any stretch, but holly shit what a difference in production and development.
So what we're saying here is that there are only 2 guys who belong at their positions with a glove and that's Robert in CF and Anderson at SS (and even that has the moments of look away).
This would just be another turd drop from Rick Hahn's ineptitude as GM.
Jumps the kid from AA to the big leagues, gets the service clock going, takes a spot on the 40 man, then gets sent down after 10 ABs or so.
