Eloy to Baltimore

Zero surprise. Better than eating it all DFA'ing him I guess.

So they got out of some of Eloy’s remaining salary for this year and also his $3 million dollar buyout?  This trade, the Tanner Banks trade, and the Robbie Grossman trade are Getz’s only unquestionably good trades.

Id give Eloy maybe 2 weeks tops on that roster before he’s DFA. They have better options and won’t have nearly the patience the Sox had with his shenanigans. 

They actually sent Heston Kjerstad and his .790 OPS down to get Eloy on the roster.  Apparently, the Orioles don’t realize that Eloy’s career OPS is .790 and he hasn’t put up an OPS higher than that since 2022.

Meanwhile Pham started off his 1st 2 games with the Cards 4-5 with a grannie and Kopech pitched 6th inning 2Ks in a lose to the Padres. Fedde should get a start soon too

 

The most hilarious thing about Pham is that he played 38 games in RF and 30 games in CF for the Sox.  Meanwhile, the Cardinals have started Pham at DH and now LF tonight.

The Sox literally have not cared about outfield defense for decades.  It’s embarrassing.

Struck out pinch hitting in a blow out. 

#72. Big Fisk fan.

I think @ChiSox59 will be proven right and Eloy will be cut before the end of the season.  They will eventually call back up Kjerstad whom they sent down for Eloy initially.

Sounds like his ABs will be intermittent to start.

Jesus, I realize that the Sox called Eloy back up too early while he was still hurt to try to get some sort of trade value out of him prior to the deadline, but how long does it take this walking disease to heal?

So the Sox rushed him back, and then crapped on him for being lazy. This is the same thing they are doing to Yoan.

Eloy is in fact... lazy. Doesn't matter if they rushed him back or not, he never puts in the damn work to stay on the field.

Eloy's 2024 salary is around $14M, so figure between 1/2 to 1/3 of that remained, plus the $3M buyout. Maybe they saved $4-5M?

They are lazy though. There is no rushing someone back when they are constantly hurt anyways.

With Eloy getting traded James Kruk's workload just decreased 25%.  Going forward the in house " Little Rascal " scooters are strictly for JR and the rest of the Board of Directors.  Chris Getz, " The trade allowed us to allocate more funds for acquiring players instead of updating our batteries in our scooter fleet."

He isn’t gonna give up a run all month.

Pham had 2 more hits. ILoy K'd in his 1st AB with Baltimore. Pham has already produced more for them than Edman did all year ( which was nothing ). The pitcher Baltimore traded for instead of Fedde ,Trevor Rogers got lit up by the Guardians.
