Moncada and Eloy rubbed off on him in the worst way. I can think of one other way that’s definitely worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too much talent not to for a team. He needs to get the hell away from this losing culture. It's obvious he's checked out. Eloy might be the happiest he's been in 2-3 years and it's showing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got players checked out despite being paid a good dolalr, just a distastrous future looking we fans in the face and yet we can calm some of our fans by acting like we are building a team via some ridiculous trades. Just dump or release Moncada and Robert, sell the team and get us an expansion team in here. Sox have jumped the shark, likely forever. There is virtually no hope of turning this around with Jerry in charge. Baseball needs to step in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I removed the part that I said it appears that Robert has checked out. To be fair I do not have clue what he is thinking. He is in a major slump, and it looks bad but he is an elite ballplayer. From my perspective he's a very good fielder. He is a .198 hitter. That's not elite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thing they are throwing out there is a joke. Cue the no throw home by our shortstop yesterday. Or just flip flop it and let our AAA and AA teams merge and play out the rest of the 2024 MLB season. That'd be fun and the AA/AAA team probably would win 5-10 games. They can regroup in February/March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WookiesOnRitalin Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Most players do not play for the sake of the game anymore. Those days seem to be gone or those players seem to be gone. Luis has very little love for the game and is at a point where he clearly does not care. He went from being poor to being rich with the swing of a bat. It's too bad since he really does have that much talent. I'll take the Rowands and Konerkos every day over the Roberts of the world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
