Like it or not, they really need to see what he has. That’s exactly what a non competitive team should be doing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A too "noisy" hand load can hurt you and cause timing issues and it can make sense to quiet it down, especially when you are wild like Gary sheffield but vargas already has a pretty small and quiet hand load. I'm working with some hitters and I don't love the slight hand lift he does and would prefer the load to be more "connected" to the shoulders (more in line with the natural coiling of the hips and trunk) but it still isn't a very noisy load and with the sox "expertise" in player development I fear they will deaden his hands completely and kill the bit of power he has making him a total slap guy like the sox did with so many hitters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even after the trades this continues to be an absurd construction. The payroll commitments for 25 are now a shade over $35 million. This franchise is sitting at around a $55 million payroll with Robert and Benny on the books, and dumping dead weight like Nicky and Vaughn. Even including them we are talking like $65 million. If they don't want him, cut him like any real MLB franchise would. They can easily set $25 million on fire just like they did last year and save Jerry plenty of his kids future inheritance, cutting payroll to under $100 million like a 3rd world MLB franchise. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zisk Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Had to post here due to lack of game thread. I just saw Vargas have the worst AB a player could have. Took 2 right down the middle then swung at a high pitch for strike 3. He was probably seeing better pitches with LA having a good line up with no go arounds. But this guy is a disgrace. Getz should just admit his mistake and bench him. Any line up with vargas in it is a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsox Posted 41 minutes ago Share Posted 41 minutes ago At least the Dodger Front Office has not referred to Getz as "My Boy". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
