2Deep Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I'm numb to this team, the orginazation, the coaching staff, and certain players who spend more time rehabbing then playing. Shit show! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-Train to 35th Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) IF, and that's a BIG IF, if Tony were to leave after this year who can we expect the next hire to be? 1. JIm Thome 2.

Like whatever he had been doing to have success the last 3 years has been figured out by the opposition?

fathom Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I know a lot of people think Eloy is the guy they should trade, but I really would like to see what he could do with a new hitting coach/approach. Yoan just seems to have lost a lot of his physical ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case then the Sox are stuck with him because nobody is taking $47M(2 yrs 43M with a 5M buyout of the option) over 2 years without a contract at least as bad coming back.

He's a DH, end of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's always been a low key personality. Players just don't lose it at 26-27. Answer: I have no clue.

I still think Yoan could be a gap to gap hitter, maybe not the MVP type of player we were thinking he would be but he could be a solid 15-20 HR. I don’t believe his talent has just fallen off the cliff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 It does go without saying that Yoan should be on the IL right now. He looks feeble at the plate. As I said once the oblique injury happened, he’s the last guy they should ever try to play when he’s not feeling great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Andrew Vaughn is currently the worst fielder in baseball when he’s out there in LF. He is unplayable in a completely different way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather run Vaughn out there in LF than Eloy. At least he isn’t falling into nets, hurting himself jumping into walls or running down the CF. Eloy is a DH, Vaughn is a 1B, neither are an answer for LF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
