Y2Jimmy0 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 QUOTE (shipps @ Apr 10, 2015 -> 03:39 PM) LaRoche is certainly trying to earn his right to be a soxtalk whipping boy early on here LaRoche is a notorious slow starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettie4sox Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 10, 2015 -> 03:39 PM) He shouldn't be playing against many LHP. I don't care if he is a vet he is no good against LHP and he shouldn't be batting 5th if even in the lineup. Start throwing at Twins players and hope they retaliate so we can get warnings issued. That'll help LaRoche out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitoMB345 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Was anyone a fan of 'Twitch Plays Pokemon'? Can we do something like that for this team? 'Soxtalk Manages White Sox'. We all collectively vote on what should happen, and the highest vote wins. We'd immediately become better, and save a ton of money not having to pay a manager.

Balta1701 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 10, 2015 -> 04:41 PM) Especially if Robin is just going to play Beckham against lefties. We have 3 righties on the bench, they all should be used on days when there's a lefty on the mound. Gillaspie and LaRoche should flat out not be playing when there's a lefty on the mound. We even have a roster built to do this, yet the fact that it's not happening with LaRoche was completely predictable in early December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 QUOTE (TitoMB @ Apr 10, 2015 -> 04:40 PM) Too bad our manager doesn't realize simple things like this :/ This has nothing to do with our slow start, but I really do think Robin Ventura is a pretty terrible game manager.

I agree but how many people are going to be pissed if you see Beckham or Sanchez playing DH? You don't want Emilio in the DH role because he has versatility. You don't want Soto DHing because of the lack of bench catcher. So you have Beckham or Sanchez and I expect Sanchez to be gone here soon Edit: I guess you can have AVI DH and Emilio play RF Edited April 10, 2015 by BigHurt3515 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
