Geez Plawecki’s numbers are unreal and not in the good way man. WTF!

 

He’s one of the worst position players in baseball

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Web gem by Davis!

[Jasonbay44]

What a catch by Davis

[jung]

What the f*** were you looking at NESN....Nate walking around the mound....that was really exciting stuff while Davis was apparently making a great catch in the OF

[jung]

NESN showing a replay of something that should have shown live....that was a great play by Davis.

Unbelievable how some players have a job at MLB level.

[iortiz]

Now I see why nobody wanted Eovaldi. He’s lost.

Could have been worse, but, then again, it is the Royals.

[moonslav59]

We really needed Nate to have any chance, this year.

 

This year has been one major cluster ____ !!!

Well, there are much too many teams.

[iortiz]

AdEOs, Amigo.

 

Very cheap amigo.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Very cheap amigo.

 

I was just attempting to fit EO into something. Anyway, since when has adios amigo been offensive? Unbelievable.

[vegasbob]

So Dalbec's splits vs LH'ers are true and accurate. Maybe platooning him with someone who can hit takes pressure off BD

I know my friend. “Very cheap” means (slang) that could have been worse here in Mexico. Seems like it’s not the same in English lol sorry for that.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Bobby Dee! Lynch's splits are unbelievable. LH's BA .196; RH's .296. Only LH pitcher in MLB not to give up a homer to LH batter.

No problem, Big Papi. I was definitely not trying to be offensive.

If Bobby were a 250 hitter he could be a 30 HR/ 100 RBI hitter at very least. He definitely has pop.

Eovaldi is doing everything in his power to lose this game.

Hard to know, if they are real and mean anything going forward.

 

He has a career .700 OPS vs RHPs and that didn't work out, this season.

 

He's at .853 vs LHPs in 312 PAs. I'm not thinking that sample size is large enough to mean much, but I think it's worth a try going forward. Then again, I thought Dalbec deserved a chance to play FT, this season, and then deserved a longer look than many ehre felt he deserved.

"Could have been worse" , sort of like Eovaldi pitching Home Runs with two outs. He seems determined to give this game up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Bobby isn't short on power. The SOX may have not corrected other problems, but 1st base looks taken care of.

Yeah, if this were a 500+ team we were playing against, this could be out of reach already.

[jung]

Nate with a gritty effort tonight is putting some pitches in dangerous spots to LH hitters.

Obviously, EO isn't 100%. His velocity is down by 2mph, but it is what it is. No one will ever accuse EO of not being gritty.

I had a lot of faith on Bobby turning the corner and being a 800 hitter this season. Won’t happen, unfortunately.

 

Bobby isn’t a kid anymore, wonder what are the plans for him moving forward.

Verdugo!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dugo is 1st LH hitter to homer against Lynch this season.

May depend on Hosmer's action regarding his option for 2023 . May depend on Casa's continued growth, without injury, going into Spring Training . May depend on any offers that Bloom gets for a trade package over the winter.
