Luis Robert grade 3 strain/torn Hip Flexor, est. out 12-16 weeks
ron883 replied to Balta1701's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I don't want him back if Yermin is mashing. I have doubt he will be better than Yermin this year after the long layoff from baseball and conditioning. He'll need to get his strength back and get back in his groove. I just don't think he will be able to jump right into it and be better than Yermin. If Abreu is still garbage, then maybe Eloy will be better than him off the bat. -
Yeah, it's really unfortunate. I went back to using chrome for a minute and got an ad on here about having an itchy ass and the proper way to wipe. Went right back to use Opera as my browser because of ads...

I don't want him back this year if it means he takes ABs away from Yermin. Get healthy, get your strength back, and come back next year ready to roll -
Funny how everybody was so hellbent on writing him off as being able to legitimately catch.

I liked them early on in the week, but last night was pretty horrible. Jason veers too far off topic sometimes. There were too many stretches where he was trying to crack jokes and/or just wasn't focused on the game. Len and Stone have been my favorite pairing. -
God damn, Benyamin is a big dude. I'm excited to see him progress.

Look at what Eovaldi got. I don't see why Rodon couldn't top that if he keeps pitching like a cy young candidate.

Vaughn going to ever hit a homerun? -

You ain't wrong. Those who are watching are in-between those outcomes. -

His bat is painfully slow this year. This might be the end, tbh. This is why you don't trade Yermin this offseason... -

That was awesome, lol -
Do you think you would call him out as much as you do if 1. he wasn't perceived as a Sox "insider", and 2. his political views aligned with yours?
-
I still hate the idea of trading Yermin so Eloy can be DH. We all know how great Eloy's potential is. However, Yermin has been nothing short of spectacular. It doesn't look like a fluke, either. He has huge power, works the count, takes walks, quick bat, and has an awesome approach. He'll shorten his swing with 2 strikes - depending on the pitcher out there. He can still mash homeruns with his shortened stroke, too. Many baseball professionals think he is the real deal after what they have seen. Furthermore, DHs don't have that much value. A DH like Yermin with 1 year of experience definitely won't have much value. Abreu has 1 year left on his deal. The Sox should start with Eloy-Robert-Vaughn in the OF. If it is that much of a detriment to the team, you trade somebody early in the season. See if they can handle it for a year, then move Eloy or Vaughn to 1st/DH the next year.
-
Imo, at least give him a 10 day contract or whatever so he can retire under his longtime manager. One last game. Give him the sendoff he deserves. He's an all time great.

Lol, so it was April 4th. Bummer did indeed come in on April 4 though, with the game tied. Balta's timeline is all jacked up. Mistakes that happened in 1 game are spread across multiple games. Edit: Nvm, that one was April 7 against Seattle.
-
Lotssss of errors in here. What were you looking at? April 2: this was not opening day. The white Sox won this game. April 4: Lynn started, followed by Heuer, then Bummer came in when it was 4-4. April 5: the Sox won this game 6 to 0. Foster did not blow the game evidently. April 13: Yermin started this game, Bieber did not pitch this game. Hendriks did not pitch this game. Fake news Balta! Rescind the likes he got for the post!

fathom is the man. The guy is the absolute king of one liners.

I tuned in recently and he mentioned that the Robert and Eloy injuries could be bad karma for hiring TLR. Dude is a grade A douche.
-
Troll takes aside, my favorite serious take in this thread is that it is the MLB's fault for changing the rules. LOL. That is just gold.

Addressing the OF shortage (Robert Injury Spinoff)

Is joc still available? -
As a former B&B fan, I can't stand Bernstein now. He was an asshole then, but I found it kind of funny. Now he's an asshole and a self righteous, hardcore SJW. He's become insufferable.

Troy and WokeUp on maximum overtroll
