wegner Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Anyone think we can trace this year's crapfest to last year's trade deadline? Put alot of $$ into a guy with no trade value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would still say that half of Kelly's terrible-ness is the fact that they keep rushing these guys back from being on the injured list without proper rehab. It's clearly not all of it, he is having another crappy run lately, but that first month he clearly needed more time in Charlotte. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say the conditioning people will get canned. Then TLR gets a "never felt better in my life" and everyone stays the same. If anything Cairo might get bounced because TLR will see him as competition. Then more roster gymnastics will go on, and not in a good way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a positive defensive OF this year so that's something. I wonder if the Dodgers have tried teaching him to hit the ball on the ground the other way?

southsideirish71 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Nothing sums up the 2022 White Sox like watching the pageantry of extreme athletes jogging to first to avoid injury.

PorkChopExpress Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Why is Robert playing? He clearly is still hampered by the hand/wrist. He's not adding anything to the team like this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a really odd season of rushing guys back in combination with not putting guys on the IL who clearly should be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You aren't good enough to fill the seats, who cares. I get a discount due to a clause that was part of the lease. Monies come in from the league anyway. Just collect money, make it look like we are doing something and let my band of misfits run the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
