If James McCann is the opening day catcher, Rick Renteria should be fired. McCann's was 132 against LHP, it's not some huge drop off. I could see Grandal getting the start just because it's opening day, but McCann is going to catch Giolito more often than not and get some starts against LHPs. There's no reason to try to push Grandal into catching more than 120ish games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like McCann's fit on this roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSoxFanMike Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I know it won’t happen but Eloy should hit higher in the lineup than Abreu and EE. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Moncada has said many times now that he doesn't like leading off. Why would him leading off still be a consideration? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
