He was drafted in 2014. Just something to pay attention to going forward I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericUserName Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 It looks like Medeiros pitched yesterday, so we'll have to wait a few days to get eyes on him and maybe solve this velocity mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 It may have taken nearly a decade and a half, but maybe, just maybe, we have found our Liriano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure it makes a lot of difference if the high k rate is based on him over using the slider . That will take its toll on the arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 https://2080baseball.com/spotlight/kodi-medeiros/ Report from a couple weeks ago had him 90-92 in that particular outing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys like Kevan Smith can be dealt as well The entire bullpen; Avi, Abreu, Leury, Yolmer, Davidson, Narvaez....I would hesitate in trading any of the latter 4 (because they are still not fully developed and won't get good value in trade), but they will have to make decisions.

chitownsportsfan Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 There's no 40 man crunch. Davidson, Palka, and Smith are all DFA or "traded for cash considerations" types. So is half the bullpen. The 40 man crunch will happen when the club is good and the prospects have matured, like the Yankees this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a thread in early 2006 that was titled "Where's Our Liriano?" During a time when the Twins were bringing up good players from the minors left and right and the Sox were spending 1st round picks on noted bums such as Lance Broadway and Kyle McCulloch. I was hoping some of the board vets such as ChisoxFn, Tony, and SS2k5 would laugh at it. Edited July 26, 2018 by Jack Parkman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) This is a pretty amazing resource, wow. Looks like Cease, Kopech and Adams will need to be protected, and then not much else to worry about, next offseason will be tougher. Wonder if they will let Zavala go...

southsider2k5 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 At this point we turned Jake Peter into Avilan, Mederios, and DSL lottery ticket. That is really nice work by RH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a fan of his last year, but no doubt the Sox made out well here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that we added a left handed pitcher with some upside, something out system is not very deep with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
