Green Line Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 2023 is picking up right where 2022 left off in every single way. The situational hitting, the bullpen, the injuries. They should’ve given up on Eloy a while ago but now we’ll have to deal with him on and off the IL every other week for the next 6 months. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, at least Burger will get his shot to hit almost everyday and not have to play terrible defense. Doubtful, I am sure Sheets will be in there against most RHP. This also quickly underscores why the whole "lets trade Gavin Sheets for a bucket of balls" movement on WST as ST came to a close was the dumbest little 48 hour thing. Gavin was always going to be needed at some point, just happened sooner than we all hoped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping Eloy out of the outfield reduces his chances of getting injured substantially. Doesn’t mean he won’t get injured doing other stuff, but it definitely lowers the overall opportunities for him to get hurt. Not really that complicated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the park had tuned out by then, makes sense we didn't notice. Same probably goes for those watching at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 I’ve always wondered if his batting stance could be putting extra stress on muscles in his left hamstring. It’s such an unnatural pose he does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanky LaValliere, Paul Konerko, even the Big Hurt looked so much more athletic when running the bases. This guy is just weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players can get hurt a lot of different ways. Keeping Eloy out of the outfield was never a bad idea. Why? Because he sucks in the outfield. He’s a losing defensive player. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowering the opportunities is irrelevant for this guy. Yes, that's simple math right there. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a great idea, he's a negative defender. But the fact that everyone assumed health for this guy just cause they kept the glove away from him it's pretty comical at this point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that's simple math right there. That may be the case. It still was wise to remove him from the OF. Eloy is never going to play 150+. Just have to hope to get 120-130 out of him annually at the DH spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are down to having him DH only, and being lucky to getting 120 games from him each season. That's pathetic and so disappointing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
