beautox Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 16 hours ago, EloyJenkins said: honestly if he has trimmed down by 10-15 pounds (which it looks like), he could be serviceable and the way he ran tonight...he looked flat out athletic for the first time in a Sox uniform. I am very conflicted. Vaughn in RF is an absolute no go though. so this is gonna be an interesting ride the next month. Why is Vaughn a "no go" in right field, he has the arm for 3B and and shown he is below average but serviceable in LF. This is a franchise that had Jermaine Dye with a -30. defensive value in right field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Howard had a ten year stretch where he had -20 dWar and was STILL +40 WAR. I don't love the idea of Vaughn being the full time RF...but I think his fielding will not cost nearly as many runs as his hitting will create...especially when Robert is back covering 3/4 of the outfield by himself. Still Cali's passion of getting lefty Joe Gallo to help this year and next before Cespedes is ready while working with VAughan/Eloy/Sheets/Abreu combo for LF/iB/DH is the best route.

poppysox Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I think this problem of having so many good hitters that it is hard to play them all is rather fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't need him doing something that gets himself hurt again. Like running into another wall. Not one out is worth getting hurt again!
