fathom Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 I swear, since last year started, it feels like the Sox all use wood bats and the opposition uses aluminum. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So explain his negative dWar last season when he played entirely at 1B? And the rest of his mediocre offensive numbers? Yeah, he played out of position as a rookie, but far less the past two seasons. Yet the bat hasn't carried over. Limited power, average bat, slow AF, poor defensive 1B's just aren't that valuable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's -7 RAA as a 1B in about 1500 innings and that's relative to only other 1B. It ain't exactly like he's a crumulent big league 1B either. He's another glorified DH that can't hit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox pitchers with way too many walks. Three sun and wind-aided hits the Cubs outfielders couldn't handle. Kopech ranged 93-98...5 k's. Spotty command with FB, overthrowing a bit...but much better in second inning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 Colas ran 200 feet from RF to back up a high pop-up. Seems to have a much better attitude this spring. But can he ever get past his offensive weaknesses? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted March 1, 2024 Share Posted March 1, 2024 3 hours ago, vilehoopster said: An example of why WAR is a joke, expecially concerning 1st basemen. Before the Covid year, Abreu with over 100 RBIs had a War of like 2.9, and Yolmer Sanchez had a War of like 2.6. The next year, the White Sox cut Yolmar to start the season and Abreu went on to win AL MVP. Abreu's value to the Sox was only a 1/3 of a run more than Yolmer?? What a joke! You lost me at RBIs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
