The Beast Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 The difference between the Yankees and White Sox players approach to hitting is striking. The Yankees staff puts the ball where players will swing at it out of the zone and the Sox will swing at it. The Yankees approach is patient and better.

SonofaRoache Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 2 minutes ago, South Side Fireworks Man said: At least when KW was in charge, offseasons and trade deadlines were interesting because he was never satisfied and always trying to pull off something big even if it didn't work out. Hahn seems to be content with the "champonship core" he thinks he built and now just concentrates on middle relievers and washed up infielders. Hahn tries, he just sucks at veteran acquisitions.

South Side Hit Men Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Nice to see Reynaldo is healthy enough to pitch after the scare earlier in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 So TLR preaches resting guys and saving his bullpen from injuries, yet here he is putting Reynaldo Lopez in a couple of days removed from having a back issue... cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Stoney is a great analyst, calls it as he sees it. Re. Timmy's lousy throwing form there. Yankees play the game the right way. Up 7-3 and hustling; Timmy with another mental error there. Sox lazy mentally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have a big enough sample size to know. But the people who are always saying Sheets sucks blast it from their trumpets enough to convince others it's true.

I'm not a Sheets guy at all, but right now it's impossible to fill out a Sox lineup vs a RHP and not have Sheets in it. Maybe that'll change if/when Eloy and Vaughn are back, but for now, he has to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm pretty sure I've heard him say things about strategy before they happen. I have noticed tho, he doesn't refer to Tony by name in regard to decisions.

He was relentless on Renteria because he knew, somehow, that was fair game. He hasn't been critical of Tony once in 2 years. I love Stone as an analyst, but that's made me lose a lot of respect for him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Jose is an automatic out now. He always puts the ball in play but never hits it where they ain't. Poor Jose. Still love the guy but he can't hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maloney.adam Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) I didn’t notice this but the Sox and the Guardians are only a half a game out of the last wild card spot. I know it’s only May and anything can happen between now and at the end of the season. Edited May 14, 2022 by maloney.adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
