That OF defense would be the worst in the entire league. You can't roll that out if you are seriously contending. Defense matters.

This. The Sox can't roll out Vaughn/Sheets in RF with Eloy in LF if they are serious about contending. Why do people all of the sudden not care about outfield defense?

Yes

You think the OF defense will be good enough with Eloy in LF and Gavin in RF?

It's a shame they can't trade for Thad since they just traded him. He would be a great fit once again. He'd have to get bought out then clear waivers. Doubt that happens.

What role do you use him in? Everyday starter? Platoon?

Replacing Vuc with a guy that the other team doesn't have to guard really hurts. Doesn't help that Lonzo and DeMar have played horribly. The Bulls really need another big man.

I never saw this article earlier this year. I heard them talking on The Score about it potentially being The Athletic article of the year. They didn't sound like they were joking, but who knows. There's a lot of funny bits in there. I'm surprised Rongey got a piece written about him, lol. They also pay homage to Bob in Niles (obviously, based on the title). I miss Rongey pregame and postgame. https://theathletic.com/2451942/2021/03/16/what-about-danks-remembering-the-sensation-that-was-chris-rongeys-white-sox-radio-show?source=user-shared-article

Yes

10 days regardless of vaccination status is a god damn joke

Romy Gonzalez could very well take his spot.

Spending 30m of your payroll on 2 relievers. Hahn is a genius.

Maybe Carlos Perez will be ready next season. Hopefully he's solid behind the plate.

Yogurt has 7 BBs and 1 SO in 32 PAs in the AFL. That's a pretty wild statline tbh.

Ray ray is totally going to rug us on this OMI coin

"Well, we better check with Brooks about this guy's marketability before we give him an offer"

It's such a white Sox move though. They're never in on the biggest FAs. Scherzer is a pipe dream. Jerry isn't signing an old pitcher to a huge contract. Conforto I can see actually happening.

Is he doing high leverage on these shitcoins? That's absurd he went from 4k to 540k on those.

You're right, I should have clarified. I think his average defense is a big upgrade over Sheets/Vaughn, and him being a lefty is the cherry on top. They desperately need more lefty bats. I don't think you can roll Gavin Sheets out in RF on a regular basis. Honestly, I'm OK with a starting pitcher as well if they upgrade at 2B with a lefty bat.

I love the Eloy-Robert-Vaughn/Sheets OF as much as anybody, but that defense just won't get it done in the playoffs. They need some balance.

People have been ignoring my posts lately as well. I chalk it up to my posts being too intellectual and big brained for some to understand.

Whatchu talkin bout?

And you phish for likes. Disgusting.

I agree with you here. Both have all star potential with their bats. Vaughn has proven to be a better and more trustworthy LFer. Eloy simply can't be trusted to stay healthy out there. He's also more prone to boneheaded plays. I'd keep Vaughn over Eloy at this point. The problem with Vaughn being their 1B for a decade is that Abreu will play 1st base until he decides to retire. Maybe he moves to DH, but he still soaks up a roster spot until he retires.

Which coins did he do that in?
