SonofaRoache Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Jake Lamb has been through a lot of the field with family and friends. I wish him nothing but the best and hope he finds somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have done in a few weeks ago instead of brining him back from the IL. Might as well have kept the depth and given Sheets a chance to play everyday in Charlotte. I am fine with how they handled it. Also, Stiever is out for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert would definitely be an option though. Or we could bring up Mercedes and see if he could deliver 5 innings from the mound! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 (edited) Also, didn't see this posted anywhere: Quote RHP Kyle Crick was released by the Chicago White Sox today. He was signed as a free agent by the Chicago White Sox organization and assigned to Charlotte on July 30, 2021. Crick, 28, went 2-0 with a 0.87 ERA in eight games out of Charlotte’s bullpen (10.1 IP/15 SO).

I'm sure when Jose crosses any contractual milestones or when we clinch, he will take a some breaks. He is the leader, TLR treats him as such and allows him those personal privileges.

IWokeUpLikeThis Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Carl Edwards Jr signing is interesting. He's put up some real solid seasons, mixed in with a couple not MLB-worthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sense in Mendick and Leury getting more looks, we already know who they are. Also, would like to see Gavin given a chance to play every night in RF or DH. Over Tony's cold dead body.

Foster is mop up material though. My only critical comment is why they didn’t DFA Lamb before, instead of Luis Gozalez who was a good oufielder that we lost to the Giants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys are all completely fungible. No need for a defensive slap hitting OF with Billy back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. Luis Gonzalez kind of sucks. He was incredibly unlikely to survive the winter on the 40 man anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was moreso just speculating on a potential reason why the Sox didn't give him a chance with a September call-up as opposed to Foster. Also would need to make 40 man room, so of course that is a factor as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not sure Wright deserves a spot over Crick but Wright is of course a bit more stretched out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
