"The Kids Can Play" Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Just now, Greek-konerko said: Hamstrings unjuries is cause of lack of training,period It's also a lack of getting stretched and properly warmed up before each at bat. Hence why Abreu never pulls his hamstrings because he is always doing stretching, knee bends and jumping up and down before each at bat. The players do stretch before the game, but many of them don't do much or any stretching after the game starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know, but what I know is that we need an updated and upgraded strength and conditioning program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummer will be blamed but they need to score more runs. Hall of Fame baseball person should be lit up for not knowing the extra inning rules against Cincinnati and for commenting on a stupid non-story in support of baseball’s unwritten rules that Earl Weaver wouldn’t even agree with.

On 6/1/2021 at 11:53 AM, zisk said: If the Sox win 1 of next 2 games, we should be satisfied. I've always been a greedy jerk though. I thought Lambert showed a little in the 2nd game. Still, he should have thrown a less hittable pitch on 3-2 to that lefty in the 2nd inning. 1st was open and the next batter was hitting .126.

Even if we lose, we still leave town in first place, but it sure would be nice to hold serve with a split.

That shot of Ruiz was the only other pen look I saw. On 6/12/2021 at 10:25 PM, WhiteSoxFan1993 said: I've been an advocate for having Leury on the bench because he can play all the infield and outfield positions well, and that gives you incredible flexibility with your team, especially in the late innings. That and the fact that he can't be sent down have led to him having a lock on a 25-man roster spot no matter how bad his hitting was. However, nobody predicted Yermin Mercedes, Jake Lamb, Danny Mendick, and even Billy Hamilton outhitting him, so have we reached the point where Leury's flexibility no longer justifies carrying his sub .600 OPS on the roster? Hamilton (when he's back) can play the OF about as well as Leury and has been hitting better than him, and Mendick can handle the IF and is also hitting better.

Hamstrings are going haywire – already the most common injury in baseball, they are up 193% since 2019, with 47 IL stints compared to 16 through May 2021. Adductors are in disarray – there have been 16 groin-related IL trips, compared to two in 2019’s first two months. And oblique strains and tears are up 83% - from 12 after two months of 2019 to 22 in 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s an obvious culprit: A 2020 season that saw players ramp up during spring training in February or March, then return home for four months as the COVID-19 pandemic interceded, followed by an abbreviated “summer camp” in July and then a 60-game season. The winter months, presumably, should have provided “some sort of reset” for ballplayers, says Conte, though the 12-month rhythms many have lived for more than a decade – physically, mentally, emotionally - were undeniably disrupted. “Clearly, elite athletes know how to condition themselves, but this was unprecedented,” says James Gladstone, head of sports medicine at New York’s Mount Sinai Health System. “The whole last year really threw people off; in part, injuries may be a result of that. “Obviously you assume that most, if not all professionals are using the offseason to recuperate, rejuvenate and rebuild. We’re talking about the physical here. The psyche of pretty much everyone in the world was affected by this COVID pandemic. It’s hard to directly correlate the two sometimes, but I think there’s some kind of connection. “I wouldn’t be surprised that the whole environment plays a role in it.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
