chitownsportsfan Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I have to admit I was a lot bigger on TAs off field persona when he wasn't replacement level on the diamond. I watched a few minutes of the interview, just didn't hold my interest. Thanks for the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted June 13, 2023 Author Share Posted June 13, 2023 I just am good on hearing him complain about voices and people talking and stuff. We didn’t dig into his personal life, that stuff was stuck on social media for everyone to see and people found out. Just disappointed in how everything has been handled and where he places blame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course nobody would give half a s%*# about his off field issues if he was still hitting 300/330/480 and playing 145 games a year. He wants it to be one way, but it's the other. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lip Man 1 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 There's only one person to blame for his troubles and it's not the media or the fan base. It's the so-called "face of the franchise" who has played like crap for a full calendar year: 6-9-22 through 6-9-23: 85 games played, 1 home run, 16 RBI's, hit into 12 double plays, .256 batting average, .293 on-base percentage, .301 slugging percentage, .594 OPS. Saw these numbers posted by a Sox fan and they stunned me that he was this bad. With numbers like that I don't see how he can have any defenders. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted June 13, 2023 Author Share Posted June 13, 2023 The calendar year stuff is garbage considering he missed most of last season due to injury . He needs to be better and there is a lot of stuff going on in his life that are clearly affecting things. He wasn’t bad before he broke his hand last year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what its worth, the fan did a detailed study over multiple years not just the past one. The arrow is pointing down, but judge for yourself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I hope they pay him the 1 mil to be a free agent after the season. Then he can sign his one year deal somewhere and try to get a 3-yr deal after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With his injury history I can't see any club giving him a nine figure deal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Tim is a likeable player so I hope he turns it around. Easy to root for. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Allen Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 TA knocks up some woman whose line of work is social media "influencer". How stupid is he to now be complaining his business is on social media? Just another case of not being accountable. I loved the guy. Now, I've had about enough. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted June 13, 2023 Author Share Posted June 13, 2023 Am I wrong or does that detailed study show a pretty steady offensive career until he broke his hand 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like a guy that tried to change his entire approach midway through his career and it was a massive failure. It's like he tried to turn into something he's not. He's a free swing that has incredible top hand when he was going well. Now he's a guy that gets into too many two strike counts and is just looking to flip something into RF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I posted, with him it seems to always be someone else's fault. It's the media...it's the fan base. Tim needs to look in the mirror. If you are going to talk, "We're the best team in the league...", "I'm the best player on the field..." then it behooves you to back it up or you look like an idiot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, he didn’t play for almost 8 months, and last year all we all complained about with the offense was that it was a singles offense, encouraged by the batting coach. and it’s interesting that you point out how important his top hand is right after asking why a broken hand would affect his career norms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kids Can Play Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 At around 45 minutes he says, "I'm living with the good, bad and ugly in front of the entire world, but I also get a chance to show the world, how I continue to be great through the good, bad and ugly, which is good for the kids." Wow, TA is in a time warp! This is not 2019-2022. This is 2023 and he isn't anything close to even good, let alone great. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been able to resume normal baseball activities around X-Mas. I don't know, I just don't see it as that big of a deal. If anything maybe his lower body injuries have done more to sap his talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying “I can be as good as I was in 2019-2022” isn’t as crazy as you think it is. He is absolutely having a bad year but good lord 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m willing to concede it could be a few of the injuries he has experienced, but it’s hard for me to sit here and agree that he is in a career free fall that is all of 85 games of results before and after he missed the rest of a season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
