And I agree with you on that. But would Vaughn be less likely to get hurt if the other corner outfielder was a great defender? Absolutely not. It’s using the butterfly effect to place blame in a misguided way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 It feels like other orgs have been able to play players in different positions without them exploding. Maybe our instruction is also horrible. Examples: Semien, Narvaez improvements post-Sox. Other examples: everyone being shit defensively once joining Sox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughn played a solid LF all year last year without getting hurt. There are no teams teaching guys how to properly dive without injuring their hips. Fingers crossed this is a very minor injury.

He lands on it but no obvious indication as to what the injury is. Hip pointer or labral injury perhaps. But that's total guess work based on the two most likely due to the impact. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vilehoopster Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 That we haven't hear a report that everything is okay and they're just being cautious is clearly a bad sign. It must be a real injury, worthy of some real time, but hopefully not too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polar Bear Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 The overreacting here is very funny. He probably has like a hip pointer or something like that. I'll assume that is all it is until the team states differently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because typical Sox defensive and lacking fundamentals play took over for a decade after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
