You better be a pinch hitter for the remainder of the post-season.

What a fuckup it was not trading him to the AL last winter.

When he had his LF adventure in the bottom of the 6th I could only think "hey at least he didn't blow his knee out!"

Actually, this will be a learning experience for Theo. He has said that you cannot get emotionally attached to a player and it's very apparent that he has. He will be an even better executive from this Brant Brown moment.

This. But don't pretend you are Willie Mays Schwarbs. Caught the catchable balls and don't do anything stupid like diving and letting the ball go to the wall.

Lastella,Almora, Happ, Zobrist and Avilla are better options at DH. Probably more im forgetting too.

Thank you for providing pretty much the only offense we had in 2015.
Thank you for destroying your knee 3 games in to the season and working your ass to try and come back for your team.
Thank you for your clutch hit in the bottom of the 10th that absolutely contributed to the Cubs first world series win in 108 years.

But hey asshole wtf are you doing dropping that pop up.

True

Not as rare as it may seem though. Toles in the pennant clincher last year. Cespedes has had a few of those in post season too.

Call me crazy but I think they can live with him in LF if he hits 250 and 35 homers

If Tim Anderson raises his batting average by 50 points, the Sox might live with his shoddy defense as well.

Actually, the BA doesn't matter if the OBP is cool.

Schwarber at .315

Get it to .340 and he's an asset, I think.

He didnt have much value last winter. His peak value was probably July of 2016 when Andrew Miller(2 years control) was on the table.
