caulfield12 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Well, at least Basabe's up to a 762 OPS. So there's at least one positive at Winston-Salem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there's at least one positive at Winston-Salem. I'm very, very impressed with the fact that Collins has thrown out 10 of 14 would be base stealers, and has picked off at least 3 others. His offensive numbers aren't really on my mind much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Well, yeah. I don't think we can really start "worrying" about any players until at least the end of May, at the earliest. And certainly if the situation was reversed and Collins was raking and about to be promoted to Birmingham but looking terrible defensively and already being moved to 1B/DH, then that wouldn't be as helpful for putting together a future White Sox playoff team, for sure.

His offensive numbers aren't really on my mind much. I'm at the same place I would rather he focus on his defense which he is doing while maintaining his plate discipline than focus only on hitting at this stage. If he can stick behind the dish the sox are better served. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could put up respectable averages with very solid obp and solid pop. Not sure if he will be a star, but a capable mlb starting catcher is nothing to scoff at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
