chitownsportsfan Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Just now, fathom said: You mean a guy with enormous power who rarely tries to pull the ball in the air? describes TA as well now. All of our hitters, the longer they play here, get worse. It's unreal. What are we doing? Why does TA only look middle out now? Why do Eloy and Robert stand a billion feet off the plate with a wide open stance only to not be able to pull the ball with power middle in? And forget about junk away, they will never be able to cover that part of the plate with their approaches. A guy that hasn't been around the Sox too long like Burger actually has a productive approach and can cover most of the plate while pulling the ball with power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will not mention Kansas City can catch the Sox with a win today in Arizona.

HOFHurt35 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 The water is so poisoned in that clubhouse that I don't see any salvation other than a complete burn down. They've built a culture of mediocrity and quitters which to the front office is acceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved how he talked about preparation and going out and kicking the opponent's ass every night. Obviously, he can't execute. So either it's either the players or the staff. If it's the players, Hahn and KW need to go. If it's the staff, they need to be replaced while you can still salvage something. Which is it? TBH, it's probably a lot of both. Both. Un fortunately the problem was comprended by the tough schedule so far against top teams and no Royals or Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankchifan Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Our infield defense, without Yoan and TA, is just atrocious. It’s like a sieve. Any ball not hit right at them goes through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomtom Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Should have gone after Joey Gallo in the off season. He hit his 7th Homer today, which would lead the Sox. Of course, in a Sox uniform, He would have about 2 home runs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
