soxfan49 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 19, 2017 -> 08:44 PM) Yeah he really really sucks now. But Shields has never been good and they gave up players for him. Holland was a wild card signing and he actually had some success for a while. Thats what I was comparing to. Never?

elrockinMT Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Holland is usually able to last only about three innings. I doubt the Sox release him at this point in the season. He can be a mop up guy till the end of the year. Covey on the other hand is the fallacy of the Rule V draft and having to keep a AA pitcher on the 25 man roster. He is completely overmatched. Holland gave up seven runs and Covey six and maybe more. Beck warming and I am not reassured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 There are maybe 4 competent pitchers on this roster. Quite impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 So I watched the first 2 innings and Perez was at like 30 pitches in the 1st. How the hell has he lasted to the 6th with only 89 pitches?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ducksnort Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 You know I might just be speaking out of emotion here, but I don't think Anderson belongs on a major league roster, let alone a starter. As a hitter, he has some pop but no patience, and it seems like he doesn't have a plan going up to the plate. It's the same with every pitcher. He also has hardly any pitch recognition. He just went on a hot streak, which was nice, but it seems like it's over. His defense, we've all seen it. He's not a shortstop. Maybe a second baseman.

winninguglyin83 Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 20, 2017 -> 02:28 AM) The scout that thought he would be a good fit for the Sox must have been same one who recommended Shields exactly. Holland is even worse than Shields. Holland has nothing left to offer. He needs to fake an injury and finish the season on the DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has at the very least one more season to prove what he can do, and likely gets another year after that no matter what. He's shown a disturbing lack of improvement this year, which isn't shocking in this organization Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
