Just not sure why Tim completely suddenly changed his approach in the second half when it was working. A good hitting coach should be able to convince his players to stick with a good thing. Yeah, I am by no means a Steverson supporter, and I honestly don't know what happened during the second half either, but I tend to think hitting coaches get too much credit when things go well and too much blame when things go south.

My conspiracy is that Steverson told Anderson to change something and Anderson didn't like it. It would explain why Anderson liked (and then unliked) tweets in September that were trashing the hitting coaches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they are still trying to finalize times. Just heard opening ceremonies could be pushed to 4. I do know there will be a panel with Daryl Boston, Zach Collins, and Kopech. There will also be one with Cease, Madrigal, and the last name is escaping me at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Now that SoxFest is sold out, I could entertain the thought of them announcing Manny at some point during the weekend, now that it wouldn't be a bad business decision to sit on that news until then.

Nothing “interesting” Only thing interesting is the first seminar with Hahn and Renteria that is normally for attendees only is going to be televised. That being said if they wanted to announce something there it would be a small reception because normally people run out to get autographs instead of attending that one.

The Twins were out of town, so I didn't get to a game, unfortunately. Really nice area though. I'd like to spend more time there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Anderson 1st half 2018: 40.6% O-Swing%, 71.3% Z-Swing%, 42.3% Zone% Tim Anderson 2nd half 2018: 39.6% O-Swing%, 74.6% Z-Swing%, 43.2% Zone% Going by those metrics his plate discipline actually slightly improved in the 2nd half, I'm guessing the 6% 1st half walk rate was just a circumstance of random luck rather than an actual change in approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Reading what Anderson had to say about Machado at SS, are there people who are actually upset about that? That is exactly what I would want him to say. He was respectful, yet willing to fight for his job. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
