harkness99 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 It's time for Shields to find a new profession... Meatball arm with no control. Bring up some minor leaguer and let him get some experience. Pointless to have a guy like shields pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 This kid can run, but his swing from the right side is noticeably slower and less fluid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Tim Anderson has lots of work to do. He is just way too overly agressive with everything...swinging at bad pitches, overrunning bases, trying to throw the balll before its in his mitt leading to an error. He needs to learn patience, with literally his whole game. This aggressive approach just isnt working for him. Hitting, defense and baserunning all look very premature right now...he's gonna be a late bloomer like Avi. Edited July 22, 2017 by Scoots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I would only bring up the minor league arms if we are sure that they are bored / no use in the minors. This team needs to tank!! It's all about what is best for the main prospects now. If they'd benefit from being up in the majors, then bring them up, otherwise keep them where they are at. Of course, I don't get paid the big bucks to make that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same thing. Also, Moncada is going to get a ton of IF hits with that speed. Amazing that he can make a closer play of a routine grounder to short than Tim can on a chopper to the hole at short. In other news, I know he's gonna get plenty more time, but I personally am losing patience with TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
