Chase Burns Appreciation Thread

[knoxvol52]

Agreed. He does take himself entirely too seriously. He considers himself an expert in all sports and makes statements supporting that accusation, across numerous sports.

Had to double check thought I was on softball thread for a moment!!!

Do you think we’ll ever reach a point where enough Vol fans will finally know who Richerd G West is? Feels like every single day someone is falling for his shtick.

Apparently not happening.

Burns is too talented to keep in the pen. It's one thing to move him to a relief role when he's struggling as a starter--but when
he's back on track you move him back into a starting role. Why? Because he was our most talented pitcher. The guy should have been
our No. 1 starter in the second half of the season--a no brainer. There are a lot of guys that can give you a few good innings out of the pen.
Vitello didn't get it right.

Lol! Didn't perform as a starter and Lindsey did. Follow that by Burns killing it out of the pen and there was no way he was getting that role back this year. Am certain he would have had a chance to EARN it back next year but he's made his choice.

I'll trust CTV and CFAs opinions on that one.

A bit of a Wally Pipp vibe, but at least CB got to play.

We should have an automatic rule. Anyone who links one of this jackass’s tweets is suspended for 13 days

If he goes to Baton Rouge I will put a hex on every one of his starts. RIght up until they move him to the bullpen.

RGW News serves excellent reliable sauce if you are a doofus

Not sure if you are calling me a doofus for asking or referring to those who believe everything that RGW says. I had not heard of him so therefore I asked.

I personally don’t think @StarRaider is like that. That same tweet (and that twitter account) had been discussed earlier this week on this forum.

He's a lying sack of excrement.

To state it nicely.

Maybe FA needs to teach him to side step.

I was not calling you a doofus. I "follow" RGW on tweeter because he is so ridiculous.

Appreciate him playing for Tennessee 2 years but wonder why he is so fragile that he didn't like doing what was best for the team. I would think that would hurt him with MLB teams.

It ended up being best for him as well.

Probably strong likelihood he’s getting bad advice.

I assure you this is the case.
