Someone may croak. Would take care of who to leave off the 40-man when Robert returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 This is awesome. Just have to see TA check in late as a defensive replacement at catcher for it to be complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Surprised Engel is in LF and our worst defensive outfielder out of the 3 (Goodwin) is in RF. I'm definitely tuning in to see Vaughn at 2B though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't that the game that Crede got hit by a pitch but the ump wouldn't give him a base because he didn't try hard enough to get out of the way?

South Side Hit Men Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Why isn’t Vaughn playing 3B and Leary 2B? Really hope Vaughn isn’t hurt covering a DP or SB attempt. Would rather see Tony or Miguel Cairo play 2B, don’t care if either gets hurt out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Let’s just hope we don’t get too cute with guys like Vaughn (or Burger for that matter) and get them hurt playing out of position. We can ill afford to lose Vaughn at this point, although Sheets has obviously made more of an impact than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Players with positional flexibility increase their value to the team and at the same time, their potential trade value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunt Ritual Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 I wonder if we're going to see more of this going forward seeing as Cleveland is in sell mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Remember when the Sox weren't supposed to draft Vaughn because you don't draft 1B that high? That said, someone needs to tell LaRussa the Sox traded for a 2B. Doing too much of this with Vaughn could come back to bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthSideGeorgia Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Got to be sure to get that scheduled Anderson off day. Doesn’t matter that every other starter is out of the lineup practically, give him an off day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
