I can’t remember their names. I'm listening to it right now. They all have the same concerns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will also be a starter on Opening Day - at SS. Becuase TA is suspended. The Sox will acquire a 2B. Relax dude. Have a dab or something.

Solid work here. Yes I would have preferred Romy as a starter every day down the stretch and if he did well then let him start the playoffs. He never had a chance and Leury stunk up the joint worse than Romy would have 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Mercedes Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 6 minutes ago, ChiSox59 said: He just put up 2 fWAR in about 2/3 of a season at bats, so that would indicate he's very much a serviceable bench piece. And he isn't the starter. He wasn't the starter last year (they literally acquired Cesar so he wouldn't be), and he's not going to be in 22 either (Fegan has confirmed as such). FWIW Fegan relayed what the Sox told him. Fact of fiction or something in between, you decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 (edited) The money will be spent. ONE day during one of these insane offseason signing weeks, we will actually ink someone to be excited about. Wakes up to refresh SoxTalk, of course it’s Leury, even though the majority of projections the last couple of weeks didn’t have him on their future roster. TLR cannot be denied. Looking forward to Wainright and Molina in 2-3 seasons. Edited November 30, 2021 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You realize he has started something like 6 of the 7 playoff games the last 2 seasons. Not a couple I so hope I'm wrong and they sign a RF and 2B bc if not its the same horrific team in the field giving extra AB's to teams and throwing the ball around for little league home runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never had a chance and Leury stunk up the joint worse than Romy would have Romy Gonzalez and his 68 OPS+ was going to out do Leury Garcia and his 96 OPS+, and get shoved into a starting playoff role. Even in the playoffs Garcia put up an OPS which was 100 points more than Gonzalez put up in garbage time September ideally chosen ABs.

fathom Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I’m going to change my prediction from Sox going after Conforto to going after Schwarber and putting him at DH. No sources or anything, just a baseless hunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chick Mercedes Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Let’s reverse engineer this. If the Sox signed Semien or Escobar, and an everyday legit RF, would Garcia still be signed here for 3 years? Gotta believe things are not real optimistic in the war room, based on this signing.
