maxjusttyped Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Eloy can't stay healthy playing the field, but he might not hit well enough to be valuable as a pure DH 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Steve Stone has talked multiple times about players that prepare and get to the park early and condition themselves (Abreu). Eloy comes across as a lazy player that doesn’t take the time to prepare himself and keep himself healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It mentioned that he's had multiple injuries basically every season of his career dating back to being a Cub. Maybe there's nothing that can be done to keep him healthy. I don't know.

At this point you have to question his commitment to game prep and maintaining his body. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brijames1957 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I never want to see a player get injured but losing Eloy is not a big deal. He can't run, he can't field, he can't throw. He is a klutz who is often injured. If he doesn't hit which he hasn't been he is more of a liability than anything. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume we'll just waste a roster spot "waiting" before we IL him during the ASB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only argument for keeping him in the field is that the roster was built full of 1B/DH types and there’s no choice. Although I’d argue Vaughn isn’t any worse than Eloy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Problem is, I do think if Eloy went to an org with a history of getting hitters to unlock their power (Yankees, Dodgers, Giants etc) he would start mashing. But I'm not convinced anything can be done to keep him on the field consistently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His constant injury problem are really hurting this team and organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
