caulfield12 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) Might as well throw all 67 mph screwballs and hope for the best. This dude was FSL MVP last year...huge jump to majors in one season. Just hope they get DP instead of walk-off...although getting another 4 pick would kinda suck after suffering through this season. Huge huge gamble to avoid the DP. Edited August 5, 2018 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soxfan49 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 You get the feeling that Palka was either messing around or he thinks Benetti is a jackass. Either way that was kind of awkward to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxnfins Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 11 minutes ago, The Sir said: Yeah, that'd help, but even without many walks, the dude has an OPS of .785. Extrapolated over a full year, the dude would get something like 65 XBHs, including 35 homeruns. He's earning his spot, AFAIC. Definitely agree. He’s almost the equivalent of Adam Dunn without the walks. Kind of fun to watch if I do say so myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lillian Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 (edited) What Palka provides is exactly what has been missing; a middle of the order LH bat. He provides that kind of presence. Sandwich him somewhere in between Avi, Abreu and Eloy and you have a potent, balanced middle of the order, 3 through 6. When this team is playing meaningful games, that kind of lineup will force opposing managers to make more bullpen changes.
