smalls2598 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) Rodon has the stomach bug (apparently) but is starting. No Vaughn. Edited April 12, 2021 by smalls2598 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 This is such a bad lineup. Hahn really sucks at adding depth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I just don’t see how you can come up with a compelling argument on Nick Williams helps you win a ballgame more than Andrew Vaughn at this point, defense be damned 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone else gets hurt for longer than a week this team is in trouble. We literally can't afford for anyone to miss time. And we still have to hope Yermin can keep up solid production moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Seriously, La Russa and Reinsdorf can go kindly f*** off. If this losing continues, this is what they deserve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughn always will be an emergency solution in left, Hahn needs to make a trade soon and send vaughn to the minors as soon as the minor league season starts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 (edited) Wow @ no Vaughn and Madrigal. This is just bad maybe we are trying to make cleveland feel better about their lineup? Actually, their lineup will probably be better than ours tonight, lmao Edited April 12, 2021 by iWiN4PreP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirmin' for Yermin Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 The one thing I was confident in Larussa (despite my anger for his hire) was that he'd likely produce good lineups with all his experience... I have since decided that he has no clue what the fuck he is doing. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just bad I am freaking tired of F'ing around with our top prospect when we desperately need a bat. Either play him or send him down and gain the additional year of control. wtf are we doing.

iWiN4PreP Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 btw what is TLR's love infatuation with Leury Garcia?? Leury Garcia legit has a -0.2 war right now, one of the top 20 or so worst hitters in baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Oh look the worst hitter in the league at this point is still in the lineup and we are again sitting our top prospect for a guy who didn't even make the roster out of camp.
