southsider2k5 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Goins will go in favor of Madrigal, so unless Moncada is going to the DL, I don't see the roster slot for Yolmer at this time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will take Delmonico's spot when he's ready to go. I do agree, there is not much opportunity here. Surprised he came back actually. But it's for a month at best. The money is probably the same everywhere, he might as well go to something familiar. Edited August 25, 2020 by Dick Allen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mqr Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Imagine being mad about this when Ryan Goins was playing third base in one of the two or three most important games of the year thus far. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote4Pedro Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Good signing for depth on a contending team. Please mean the end of Ryan Goins in a Sox uniform now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is he could have an aluminum bat and still not be able to hit the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox sign gold glove 2B with clubhouse familiarity "Not like that!" I am 100% down with this move and have been since he was freed up from SF. He is a great fit in the clubhouse and would be able to step in and at least play great defense while someone else was out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamhock Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 My only concerns are more general in nature, and not necessarily specific to Yolmer: A tendency to return to what's familiar over trying something new/different; Carrying too many of these types of players on a roster; The person filling out the lineup card who reflexively keeps playing them, or worse, batting them high in the lineup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
