Southwest Sider Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 It's really nice to see a guy like Fry make a major leaguer out of himself when it didn't seem like a distinct possibility. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utility? he's the perfect super utility guy on a the next 90+ win team imo. that said, if someone wants to overpay for him, trade him. love yolmer but he's like a 2-3 WAR player at best.

Chicago White Sox Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Between fathom’s unwavering negativity & Parkman’s hot takes, I figured Lopez must of given up about 10 runs or so with 0 K’s. Then I check the box score and see he had a respectable start. And I get the box score doesn’t tell the whole story, but my god these game threads are brutal, way worse than usual IMO. It’s really apparent some people can’t deal with the highs & lows that come with developing young talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Lopez also was the victim of 1-2 extra runs scoring due to Abreu’s iron fists...fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he were older then I'd be down, but he has so much control left. I'd need a massive return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Explains a lot. See above for my "hot take" on Lopez. idk, it makes his 98 mph fastball easier to hit. Do you even watch the games???? This is why hitters are not late on his 97-98 mph cheddar. They hit him hard, each and every time. The bad defense doesn't help either, but he's probably up there in DRA, and I know he is in xFIP. Also, his 6.4 K/9 is closer to a soft tossing LHP rather than a righty power arm, and his BB/9 is almost 4. No good Edited June 27, 2018 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
