Spencer Adams getting knocked around. What a ridiculous promotion.

 

Been the theme the last few years starting with Hawkins. Probably why I'm not the biggest Buddy Bell fan at all.

I'm probably alone, but I like the promotion. Take that back, I like him being with another team/coach. Not at all saying the coaches are bad at WS. I think Batista was trying to make him into a type pitcher he isn't. I just don't see him being a total pitch to contact type. Plus his delivery looks totally different. Completely. Idk, maybe that's not a bad thing???

 

I know he really like Perdew while he was at WS last year. I think his #'s will slowly improve. Especially the K's.

 

JMO, we'll see

This organization has some dumb promotions. This and the Fulmer.

 

They needed an arm in AA rotation. But, I would rather have seen Stephens move up than Adams myself. I think Stephens is more ready for that jump right now, even if his ceiling is lower than Adams'.

Really wish he could discover his fastball again.

 

He didn't lose it - it's been re-tooled, and subsumed by the 2-seamer. By design. To wit...

They have really changed Spencer, pretty dramatically. I've written about it. And if course, you'd know! Hard to say if it's really for the best or not.

I think this promotion has more to do with him getting to work with J.R. Perdew on a everyday basis then Spencer pushing the issue. He is very well respected within the organization.
