And I have no confidence he knows what constitutes a good offensive player. Montgomery’s awful season really dampens any expected lineup for next year in terms of watch ability.

I don't know how to go about it, but boy do they need to do something about position player development. Or Getz needs to acquire almost finished products in Robert/Crochet returns and just pray. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big projects like Zavala have no shot in this organization. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Thames is another person that should be out of a job by now. It’s one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen in sports…just about worst start in history and no one has lost their job yet. Other teams would possibly be in their third manager of the season by now. f*** off Reinsdorf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me power hitters who can hit the ball in the air. They’re never gonna win enough 2-1 games to be competitive playing half their games at GRF and this organizations inability to scout defensive players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxBlanco Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 How did Cannon look today? I was only came to watch one inning (B3), and he didn't look sharp (luckily the double play limited the damage). He didn’t seem to have any command in that inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the bullpen has been awful, but most of that is because they aren't good bullpen pitchers. The starters as a whole have all been as good as, or better than, expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
