MiddleCoastBias Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Where's Lucroy been? Feel like his playing time has fallen off precipitously. Maybe giving Collins and Yermin a shot to duke it out for that DH spot, get them more ABs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the question is will NIck Williams make the roster? He has played well this spring and could get LF time IF they are not comfortable with Vaughn.

Feel like his playing time has fallen off precipitously. Maybe giving Collins and Yermin a shot to duke it out for that DH spot, get them more ABs? Expand I’m not a big fan of keeping back both Lucroy and Hamilton on the roster once Engel can return. I’d be ok with both gone once Engel can return and they can bring in a fifth outfield capable of hitting, which Hamilton is not. You can get a fill in from one of the dozen tanking teams for either. I see it likely they keep Lucroy all year, really fear they keep Hamilton and this Katz guy (Turley) all year as well. What I would go with, keeping Vaughn at DH / 1B, at least once Engel can return. C 1B DH Abreu, Collins, Grandal, Vaughn. 2B 3B SS Anderson, Madrigal, Moncada, Mendick (Prefer Yolmer - he’s available).

Expand He pitched a little in the past, and could hit the 90’s reportedly. His arm isn’t weak. I was just surprised it was relatively accurate given how quick he got rid of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Moncada is pretty much the fulcrum of the offense this year with Eloy out. We really need him to step up and return to 2019 form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude was super nice and I’ve been a huge fan of his despite his known flaws. I really hope he gets a shot and cements himself as some sort of long-term piece, whether as our backup catcher or regular DH. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I’ll give La Russa some credit, he makes all his responses about the players and not himself. And he clearly realizes how lucky he is to come into a group like this. I obviously won’t endorse his off-field issues, but I’m really hoping he can be everything Ricky wasn’t when it comes to the in-game stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
