However the point is that you should play your best infield behind a sinker baller. If TA couldn’t play for physical reasons and this was our best infield,so be it.

Tomtom Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I’d really be pissed If I was a Sox Fan in Tampa who paid good money to see them play today, and then see this lineup on the field. Didn’t NBA teams get criticized for this same reason after resting star players regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexSoxFan#1 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Thinking about getting my guitar out and playing some Iron Maiden while having the game on my laptop in the background, just to see if the Sox show some interest in this game, haha...

Not that hard to figure out IMO. I am in favor of them being careful with Robert coming back from a serious injury so he is in the best physical condition come October. Guess that's why I don't think it's as easy to figure out as you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully long enough until it’s absolutely clear that he should not be starting any playoff games. Edit: Clear to those making the decisions that is.

South Side Hit Men Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 1 hour ago, Dick Allen said: Yes one of the craziest things ever. He needed to swing more, You had this first ballot HOFer, and they wanted to risk changing him and not letting him be because his eye was too good. Yes, but he didn’t kiss Jerry’s crony GM’s ass, so Kenny dumped him and trashed talked the Sox best player in a century on the way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Also Brian Goodwin lately seems to get zero days off despite the fact that sometimes his situational splits suggest he should sit. Also regarding Robert, has anyone on the medical staff weighed in that he needs additional days off here and there? Or is this just armchair bullshit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a streaky and non terrible option as a corner OF, but I just can’t figure out why managers insist some players are fine in CF when they clearly aren’t. One day emergency fine, regular backup out there? Naw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexSoxFan#1 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 With MLB's biggest division lead and barring some horrific turn of events, the Sox should easily win the division...seems like TLR is putting a premium on resting guys. Sucks for us but maybe he knows what he's doing? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the players themselves have a say in things. Abreu just happens to have the attitude that you need to drag him off the field. As far as anyone knows on this board TA might have communicated that he needed the day off, but I doubt that the manager or anyone from the White Sox would announce that to the public. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
