Perhaps they're evaluating him as AAA depth, too. Venable knows all of his flaws and pluses already. Maton 2/14 but 865 ops lol.

A lot more of a trend than a season where only 5 guys remain from last year's opening day roster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaleAleSox Posted April 4, 2025 Share Posted April 4, 2025 Vaughn has probably grounded out more than flying out. That’s an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the naked eye, it seems he tries to pull outside pitches and hits pitches down the plate to the opposite field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not really making an argument, here. Last year's stats don't apply to the 2025 team. It's fun to pretend, tho. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snopek Posted April 4, 2025 Share Posted April 4, 2025 This offense is just so painful to watch. Especially when Robert is being his worst self. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure JR can’t wait to get rid of Robert this offseason and slash payroll even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only signed stop gap players as the goal is to start bringing up the prospects while they are intentionally losing as they rebuild. As a veteran would you sign a deal with a team where it's obvious this is the plan? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a veteran would you sign a deal with a team where it's obvious this is the plan? That’s why you actively try to acquire young players rather than start the season with the Taylor’s and Jankowski’s of the dumpster. We are just wasting at bats on this bums. The Pirates just grabbed one such player for cash considerations. Edited April 4, 2025 by WhiteSox2023 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not if the Sox have the prospects to call up. It's when they will offer the longer deals and when the veterans think they have progressed enough to sign. They aren't trying to win right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
