chetkincaid Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I've always said that Eloy was too young to make a DH but screw that. He doesn't need to be in the outfield. He's going to get himself or Robert killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I bet if they suddenly put Eloy at DH and Vaughn in LF, defensive metrics would either remain the same or increase at that position. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitown87 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Man. Looked like he put himself in decent position, too. Not like he ran into the wall because he was unaware where he was on the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams is your leftfielder, right? or are we bringing back Sheets? Eaton is your RF, Robert is your CF, Leury or Hamilton is your LF. I woild imagine Mendick is now a shoe-in for the backup infielder role. Edited March 24, 2021 by ScooterMcGee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I know what he was trying to do but it is beyond dumb to try and rob a homer in fucking spring training. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully once Engel is back, we can ride the ship for a while with him out there. Edited March 24, 2021 by SoxAce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they should put Vaughn in LF and DH Collins to start the season...but I don't think Vaughn has had any reps in the outfield this spring.

Squirmin' for Yermin Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I am ready for Yoenis Cespedes now.

TheFutureIsNear Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Only saw a quick replay. Did Eloy ever end up being able to move his shoulder? Or are we looking at an obvious tear/dislocation that will keep him out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
