ron883 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Of course he was. That dope needs to learn to sit when he is unhealthy. He's been completely killing this team by playing through injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 I'd like them to shut Jose down and let him come back after the ASB...give Sheets some AB and see what we might have there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thibodeau squared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 A player like Abreu who has had a track record of success in the majors will likely make adjustments and turn it around. I think scouts have found a vulnerability in his swing or approach including perhaps his tendency to be late on outside high fastballs with 2 strikes on him. Whatever the case, I think he will adjust. Maybe he is pressing now and swinging to hard to hit a home run. All he has to do is connect. His arms are like tree trunks. Meanwhile, he is gold glove quality D at first. The other problem now is that neither Mercedes nor Vaughn have been providing him with much protection. We need ALL of them to rake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Deep Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 If Jose is back I would like to see him DH for Twins series with Yaz at 1st and Collins catching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoesox Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 selfishness, nothing more totally useless as an injured player with a jacked up knee and whatever else a first rate organization would put his ass on the IL for a couple weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selfish is a guy who has to be feeling great to consider playing. Would rather just cash his check. This is a guy who wants to help the team win. It's up to the team to determine if he is not physically up to it, and do what they have to do. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually Tony is leaving it up to Jose according to Tony's post game the other day. Hahn needs to take charge here and have Jose rest a bit, at least a day or two, for health and performance. June isn't Willis Reed Game 7 time, it's one of an 162 game grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 If Jose isn’t hitting the IL, wonder who is going to AAA for Sheets. Must be Gonzalez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Engel went back on the IL, they brought up Burdi instead of another position player so the bench has been a man short for a while now.

Going to guess with the way that Gonzalez has played in SSS, it is a pitcher that goes down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron883 Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Enough of this macho, tough guy, toxic masculinity from Abreu. We don't need him playing if he is hurt. No need to play hero. Rest up and come back when healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
