chitownsportsfan Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Apr 12, 2017 -> 05:14 PM) Who is Perez? Assuming you talking about Lopez. The K's are nice, but he has pitched 3 innings and 5 1/3, innings in his two starts. ERA 6.50. 7 walks. I am super excited for Lopez, but he hasn't exactly been great so far. lopez has had some bad luck on HR/FB. The stuff and velocity is there. That's most important.

If the Sox want to send some cash a long with Shields it will be a lump sum as well. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically these deals are where the team assuming salary just keeps paying the player for the part of the salary they assume in a deal. The Sox do often make deals where they get the money themselves, as it has come up in trades before. No idea how often they get the money, or if they get it up front.

Honestly Narveaz is probably only the 3rd or 4th worst hitter in the lineup. He's a solid backup catcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Man this Tribe team is solid. No obvious weaknesses other then the back of their rotation and the offense has more than enough firepower to win those games as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Ball doesn't seem to be traveling. I thought Abreu's and Saladino's balls were hit farther. I am also watching on a phone with no sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) I really believed in Anderson but man does he suck. I don't see him doing anything ever without changing his approach, and if he doesn't that contract extension will be a huge mistake. It is one thing to be a free swinger, but it is another when you can't hit a fastball. Dude just looks lost at the plate.

He's a fine defensive SS. If he hits it's gravy. That said, yea, disappointing start with the bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Tim Anderson is going to be Alexei with better speed. He'll get better, and then he'll plateau at a level that's fine. I don't think anyone thinks he's a superstar in the works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 As a fan, hearing Hawk say "dad gumit" about the ground rule double just really brings me down. Be positive, just enjoy the double hawk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
