Expand I expect him to be a doubles machine when he takes over in RF in 2021. He will be able to spray the ball around the field and also turn on some balls for HR. He might just not have the power many want in a RF but I'm looking for a 1-9 lineup that puts the pressure on opposing pitchers with no let up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Remember this? Maybe the scout was right?

chitownsportsfan Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Part of me hopes Robert puts up a 10 WAR season just so I can read all the salty tears of butthurt Cardinals fans for all time on Twitter. What a fucking beast. Jesus. He might make Eloy play 2nd fiddle in that OF in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Thomas is an actual legit player where the other family members kids are just favors. Also they most likely didn't want the added pressure of being Alan's son and being a home town kid. Let him make a name for himself in another organization. That's a very common practice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
