chitownsportsfan Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 I turned on the Open, is he still struggling with arm side fastball command? A lot of misses out and away to righties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) Games like this one is why sometimes I think of Rodon as left handed Rich Harden. 70 pitches through 3 IP is bad. Edited June 14, 2018 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be pretty close with 9 months of rehab, the throwing program and the Arizona and minor league starts. He may not have the endurance yet but he did ramp up to near 100 pitches in a start. This is more like the third week ofthe season for him. Edit: Im too old this new tablet is tough to type on accurrately.

I agree with you on this observation. Carlos might have been going through rest and rehab but game action is a different animal. He seems a bit rusty as evidenced by missing his spots and a some wildness but at other times he shows gold speed. He just needs more game action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just needs more game action I could be wrong but it seems like whenever he starts to get into a good rhythm on the mound he has an injury setback. It would be really nice if he could just make every start the rest of the year. He needs experience even though he's now in his 4th year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) Two weeks ago, I was thrilled with the idea of watching Palka & Davidson battle it out for the remainder of the year for the starting DH spot in 2019. Now, I’d rather put a nail in my eyeballs over watching either of them hit. Edited June 14, 2018 by soxfan49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
