Abreu should have never been in the field. He is absolutely atrocious out there. When he is hitting, he can pass as a DH. When he inevitably goes into his awful slumps, he just isn't very valuable.

This is Hollands issue. He is a fly ball pitcher. He has been great but when it warms up in that bandbox with the juice apparently back in the balls, it will get ugly.

 

Yep they need to aggressively try to trade him

This is when we start to step in the not-fun part of the rebuild. Really get in close, get a good whiff of that rebuild.

Won't be long before we have Moncada in the majors to hold our interest, not much beyond that, though.

Delmonico, Fulmer, Lopez, & Burdi too. Those four, Moncada, Anderson, & hopefully Rodon at some point should be enough to keep me watching regularly.

Who, then, should be the starting 1B if Abreu goes to DH? Frazier? From what I have seen, he is worse than Abreu. Asche? Please, no. Davidson? Please, no.

 

Guys, I saw the play, too. It was horsepoop. But Abreu is still best option on this team. Unless they bring up Hayes??

Well, it's somewhat understandable with Narvaez up next, but not good with the play right in front of him.

 

Not surprised the White Sox have been in the bottom 5 for walk rate over the last five years in all of MLB, and 30th this year.

 

Scouting/evaluation.

 

 

And it was nice to see Avi turn viciously on an inside pitch and pull it.

Abreu has easily been worst everyday 1b since he started in the majors

Burdi's gonna be cool. I like Lopez, I'm intrigued by delmonico but expectations are very tempered, Fulmer's a wild card but I'll definitely tune in.

 

I think you listed them in order of future value: meh+, solid, good, awesome.
