SoxAce Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 That play right there describes Puig in a nutshell. Very good defensively (nearly robbed Timmy of extra bases) then does something dumb after that (airmailing everybody and Tim gets the extra base).

Every time Fulmer looks like he might be figuring it out, he goes and gives up a crooked number. I'd rather just DFA him than bring him to ST in 2020. He won't do anything here.

BackDoorBreach Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I think Fulmer has like a 15-20% chance of being something at this point, but I think it's unfair right now. Let him get innings for the rest of the season and we'll see, for me at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing I will say is he at least didn't walk anybody. By far my pet peeve with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board will improve tremendously if we curse at each other, because that really makes a point both emphatic and quantitative/objective. No wonder we've gone 11 seasons without making the playoffs.

I think they're more afraid he might have a Matt Thornton-like transformation with another organization, making them look even dumber...especially if they just cut him. Instead, we can have another offseason of hype after he spends time with tech-ier version of Driveline.

fathom Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 So according to Steverson, Eloy doesn’t have to change much because of the success he had in AAA. God is this organization stupid, and it’s no surprise why so many guys struggle out of the gate. https://chicago.suntimes.com/platform/amp/white-sox/2019/9/2/20845300/eloy-jimenez-batting-245-with-22-homers-says-hes-going-to-be-better?__twitter_impression=true 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See post above about Jimenez (from Fathom, link). It's almost like people refuse to be objective about Sox players on this site...just like the coaching staff refuses to look at ALL the information available to make the best possible decisions in game management. It's just another version of Don Cooper cursing out the fans at a remote promo for The Score for daring to question anything with this organization and especially his work with the pitchers. Instead of responding intelligently and patiently, with evidence/support, just go on the offensive.

Sox coaching staff is a tire fire. Outdated and way behind the times. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares? He came up in a meaningless year and did some good things. He'll grow next year, see Moncada see Giolito. No need to whine all the time.

elrockinMT Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I think it’s way to early to give up of Fulmer.he hasn’t pitched in awhile and is a bit rusty. Any pitcher who gives up a homer seems to get the gloom and doom treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
