caulfield12 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2017 -> 09:26 PM) Holland's peripherals are not good. Velocity already down a bit from April When I looked last night, he was in the back end of the Top 30 for WHIP and BAA (MLB)...I'm pretty sure both those categories. Maybe not super advanced stats, but there's at least something to back up the claim he's been pretty good besides ERA. Obviously he has a ton of UER's on his record, so there's that.

Also throwing less grounders than ever, which won't be fun at a warm Guaranteed Rate Field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just another guy. Ditto Holland. Ditto Frazier. Ditto Melky. These guys are worth little to nothing. Nate Jones as well. He aint bringing anything useful folks. Unfortunately, you are right. Hopefully, Jones comes back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 How many hits does Cameron Maybin have this series? Screws us over in the as the key piece (along with Andrew Miller) for Miguel Cabrera trade, now this series!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Moncada doesn't play the second half for the Sox, I have a feeling the White Sox will end up drafting 6th-10th. Trading Robertson, Cabrera and Frazier definitely won't kill their record.

Yeah I have no problem with Holland on the roster. Would have been nice for him to have high trade value, but that was never likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Swarzak still hasn't given up an earned run of his own yet this year. (That will definitely stop Maybin from getting yet another hit.) Maldonado's come up with some big hits this series, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, players like Aaron Hicks go to the Yankees and become All-Stars. This day/night has been a total disaster. Moncada on the DL. Fulmer blasted. Swarzak's luck runs out (ERA still a miniscule 1.37). Of course, it's hard to get TOO upset when it's Mike Trout doing the damage. He's pretty good.

The Sir Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I love that Renteria gave Swarzak a pep talk while taking him out. He needs to be our manager for a good long while. Also, can we just not pitch to Trout, like, ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I'm officially all about having the worst possible record now. With the Indians struggling and the Twins in first, some part of me as a Sox baseball fan was trying to convince myself they could make a race of it at least into June/July, but this series and then the next two in Seattle and Arizona will probably wipe out any remaining illusions of grandeur.

Hawk was gushing about him earlier, and while I think he's a huge improvement from Ventura, he doesn't come across as a very good in-game coach.
