I still think he can put up a Mike Sweeney type career. There is a serious power outage with this organization so I'm not ready to say this is the "real" Andrew Vaughn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pollock isn't ideal but he's the only thing remotely close. This team just has a crazy amount of uncompetitive at bats. TA is and was a better hitter than Pollock. He also gets on base more and is a better base runner. I get TA isn't the ideal profile for a lead off hitter, but obviously Pollock isn't at this point of his career either.

ShoeLessRob Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 A good organization would have made several changes over the course of the season, instead of continuing to shove a square peg in a round hole. I’d like to think there will be major changes this off-season from the top to the bottom, but we know that won’t happen. Every player should be available and if that includes their little Cuban connection, so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add one of the worst defensive infields playing tonight. Big Energy just cost us 2 runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but looking at the 1B/DH free agent list I don't think teams will give up the value they will need to move him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijames1957 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Do the Sox go over scouting reports with their hitters before games? Do they have any plan at all ? This entire organization is crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrontierDayz Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) FS1 announcers tagged Sox as worst team in majors for swinging on pitches out of zone…particularly Jimenez with barely .100 avg for hits when down 2 strikes and yep he missed the slider well outside the zone…sit down Eloy….

On every 2 strike count in his career he's been terrible . Even on 3-2 his slugging is only .356. The 0-2, 1-2 counts I understand most hitters suck but when you get to 2-2 and 3-2 it should be better than he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
