Series Thread: Three Games In The Windy City With The White Sox June30 - July 2

Bibs says WHAT

I think Odor needs to be handled better than he's been, but I'm still against a demotion at this point.

At what point are you for a demotion. He hasn't hit all year. The season is 3 months in and he's barely hitting .200.

If we get rolled by this team

JD definitely needs to make sure we're sellers at the deadline. The white Sox are the worst team in the American League.

Odor on a fine turn/throw for the DP.....Pretty decent scoop by Gallo too.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

I really think the lineup would benefit from Odor hitting 7th.

Maybe at RR

So it's the team's/managers problem he swings at everything? Not sure what you mean by "handled" and who does this handling?

I'd like to see him hit lower in the order and benched more, before anything. It hasn't seemed to me like there's been any response from Banister as far as his performance has gone.

Bases full no outs no runs. RISP continue

Should be an interesting weekend. Two teams who score via the long ball.

If your going to bench him more,who plays second. I sure don't want to see Kozma out there.

At his current rate of swinging like Don Quixote, is there any harm in sitting him against LHP and let Kosma play second? Kosma is terrible at the plate but solid defense.

Very good point. Hadn't thought of it.....obviously. ha

Kozma being the 2B is obviously not ideal, but if it sends Roogie a message, I'm for it.

To date, he's a better 2nd baseman than Odor and they're both hitting under their weight.

AAA worked last year. But you're exactly right. Why not try something else if you're not willing to duplicate last years formula?

At least when Fielder batted under his weight that could mean .270. Not bad.

 

[True Rangers Fan]

Make no mistake, I totally acknowledge Odor has regressed at the plate this year. But I'd like to see an on-field response before a roster response, is all I'm saying.

Thought that was 2015. Don't remember.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

Lol Roogie hearing us. Let's keep it up

 

[Duane1952]

There you go Roogie. Hope that gets you going.

 

[donaldson79]

This is what I get when I really start ragging on him. ha ha
