harkness99 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 This has been mostly our intact line-up that was supposed to be formidable... Wow is it bad... it's pretty remarkable how shitty the offense is. We are not missing anyone that wasn't supposed to be a threat... and we can't do s%*# on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 They’re an offensive team for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 A few years ago, it looked like the offense would be truly formidable. But Anderson is no longer the catalyst he once was. Eloy has actually hit the ball fairly well since the ASB, but his power hasn't been there. It all adds up to a team that cannot afford to get behind. But, with this pitching staff, it is often behind. This offense just won't scare anyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitekrazy Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Eloy is now Jaun Pierre without the speed. He should improve his bunting as well. Someone said the Sox should put out an ad seeking the best hitting coach. If they are not you fire them. Hitting coaches are hired to get fired. TLR and Dusty did it a lot. As for Katz you have to try someone else. They should've promoted Coop into development and scouting. The old school guys make not look at the popular spreadsheets but they can still spot delivery and arm angle and say no that's not gonna work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boopa1219 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 This team doesn’t hit the ball hard, they don’t hit the ball in the air enough, they don’t see enough pitches, and they don’t take enough walks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its bad enough he was traded but like the trades of Tatis Jr and Madrigal we received nothing for them. Wouldn't this teams offense be better if Burger, Madrigal and Tatis Jr were in the starting lineup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFest23 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Kopech went from a mental issue (years ago) to now a physical issue (just can't throw it hard enough)... Maybe it's now both. Change of scenery candidate. Kopech and TA to whoever the high bidder is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
