Worst case surgery and 9 months. If its a labrum tear does that mean going forward his power output would be more limited? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grinder Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Should we applause Eloy for trying to rob someone of a homer or villanize him for trying something like this on a meaningless game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should still make the playoffs with a good offense, great bullpen and good 1-3 SP (quentionable back end). I’m not commenting on this until I see the extent of the injury, but we’re in big trouble if we lose Eloy for a long period of time. He’s arguably our best hitter heading into 2021 and we have shit depth behind him in the OF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Absolutely brutal. No other way around it. Losing Eloy for significant time just kills this entire lineup. And on top of it, the way this team is built, there is no spot for him at DH. I honestly don't know what they do here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He shouldn’t be trying to steal homers unless it’s the playoffs, let alone in a meaningless spring training game. I get his desire to get better, but it’s really dumb & unfortunate that he felt compelled to do this and it’s going to cost the team as a result.

He just needs to play a safe LF. Literally stay away from walls & fences and don’t dive. He should be able to survive two years doing that, but it requires our management telling him to do that and Eloy buying into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So pitchers are going to be fine when he lets fly balls near the fence just drop because they tell him not to go after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for the foul line. Aside from that, I don't know what else they can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalChiSox Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Some rumors of a torn pec. 3-9 mos. If its that and not the shoulder/labrum, will he at least fully recover from that with no lingering effects on his power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where that grindy, balls to the wall "Play the game right" mentality comes back to bite you in the ass. It's one hit or one run in an insignificant game dude... don't run into a wall or dive into the stands and risk being out for a significant amount of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
