joejoesox Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 pitching isn't anywhere close to being capable of making the playoffs, nice job Hahn, well done. in Japan, they would fall on their sword when they failed as completely and miserably as you have 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we need to straighten out Giolito, Lynn, and the bullpen and get Eloy back, and then we are on our way to a great season IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have the perfect arm or accuracy...but pretty darned close. When firing on all guns, Robert is right up there with Acuna Jr., Tatis, Chisholm, Corbin Carroll, Betts, Trout/Ohtani and Julio Rodriguez in terms of all the "loudest tools" players.

Come home 7-6 and get some good pitcher starts, we’re all feeling a lot better about this team. I feel a lot better about this team so far. Games are more exciting than under TLR. There is more action, more running, more hitting , better defense so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosa has a 1.488 OPS at AAA. Including 3 HR and 6 walks. Popeye is only hitting .400 at AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, but those players are hardly win-now guarantees. There really weren't many on the market...after the very top tier, names like Wong Drury Profar Frazier were far from slam dunks. But one week does not a season make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one reason I don't agree totally, is the Sox are morons. They are chickens when it comes to giving young players a chance. They have been this way for my whole life. The only guys they will give a shot to and stick with them are all 1st round draft picks. It really does seen Sosa is ready now. Too bad he had 13 poor at bats last year. That's a federal offense in this organization. Edited April 9, 2023 by zisk add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
