In a terrible season, Fletcher barely has over 100 plate appearances. That’s called roster mismanagement. I guess Sheets needed those at bats. He has 45 games in the outfield. Brutal.

Fletcher started out terribly and Getz gave up on him immediately in an already lost season. Vilehoopster should be questioning Getz for not having any faith in Fletcher moreso than Sox fans. Expand Your hot takes lack any perspective.Sending a guy down is not giving up when you're playing other guys in the OF ,one of whom you needed to trade.Plenty of time to get Fletcher a good look.

Expand Hot take? Once again, Sheets and his .676 OPS has 45 games in the outfield. How much more does Getz have to see of him to realize he’s terrible? Fletcher should have been out there most of the season to see what he can do, if not to also try to disprove that it wasn’t a terrible trade to begin with. Getz blows. Is that hot take too?

Expand I have no idea if this is sustainable but if they continue playing like this for the next 6 weeks it sure makes you wonder how last and this season might have been different without Pedro. Sure, they still would have been a bad team but perhaps nowhere near historically bad as they’ve been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeKreevich Posted August 13, 2024 Share Posted August 13, 2024 Comments after last night's game: I really like Baldwin and Lee. They can only get better next year. Grady Sizemore with his curly mullet might turn out to be the permanent solution. Gavin Sheets should play more 1st base and Vaughn should be traded in the off season. The Lenyn Sosa experiment should end now. Nicky Lopez looks energized playing shortstop and has played surprisingly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
