Did we decide with absolute finality that he’s a platoon player? That he cannot hit lefties and never will learn? That he is so certainly a future .230 hitter that he should be benched in favor of Dogshit Palka? This franchise sucks.

Lip Man 1 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 On a really, really bad day Detwiler stepped up and gave them a shot in the arm. Herrera meanwhile looks likes he's completely lost it. Another "brilliant" find for Hahn and the pro scouting section of the organization. And I know Palka got off to that embarrassing start but is he really hitting .026? Is that correct or did the box score get it wrong? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackDoorBreach Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 He was like 1-34 before he got sent down and was 0-4 today. Yes it's correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Kelvin Herrera should only be used if the game is 5+ runs out of reach for either team until he proves otherwise. It's so bad... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started the season 0 for 34 and got a hit on his last AB, of his final day up with the White Sox before being sent to Charlotte.

greg775 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Damn just examined the box score and watched highlights. This whole page of this thread is negative. Geez. We beat Minnesota. My guy Abreu with the nice dig on the double play BTW. I guess those plays are expected. Beautiful bomb by Eloy. As much as our leadoff hitter is meh to me, I won't argue if somebody wants to call him a nice player. He gets a lot of hits. Always nice to beat Minnie. I assume that guy we started is just another guy. At any rate, we win. I happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well to be fair, you can't judge him by what he did earlier. Since he came back up, he's hitting....never mind that's .000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I'm still trying to figure out why Collins didn't play instead of Palka tonight. Barrios is nasty no doubt, but let the kid see ML pitching. Him rotting on the bench and having a AAAA player out there isn't helping his development. He's eventually going to have to sink or swim. It's a rebuilding season get him his AB's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a serviceable hitter with good speed and can play a multitude of positions well. On any team worth their salt, he's an ideal utility man and nothing more. He's fine for now.

Yeah I never liked him but tonight I'm giving him props. He does a nice job for the most part and that's all I can ask on such a lousy team. I tip my cap to Leury. Seems to me he has a lot of multi hit games. He's like a modern day Lance Johnson (in a good Lance year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leury is going to end the season at 3+ WAR if he continues what he's doing. Pretty valuable asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
