poppysox Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Would take this pitching performance from a bullpen game every time. Very good job IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fry by the way has been awful this season. And I'm beginning to wonder a bit about Eloy. For all the build up, the 'second coming" talk I expected a little more than a .229 batting average with three home runs, granted he's missed 21 games but even before that he looked over matched a lot at the plate and his defensive shortcomings speak for themselves. Given the White Sox "development history" over the last decade or so you always have that question in the back of your mind.

I agree with you about Eloy, I just think with his batting stance he is too far from the plate, everything is outside and he is not getting any hard contact.

ron883 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Eloy's stance just looks so odd. He became the player he is with that batting stance, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliusO1274 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I continue to be baffled by how quickly White Sox fans have soured on Eloy because isn't hitting like Manny Rameriez after a month into his career. I was someone who was worried about Moncada but that was after he struggled and looked awful for months. People making conclusion about Eloy right now so early in his career is ridiculous. Mark my words you will all look foolish within a year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Eloy had 2 hits up the middle this game. Credit the Astros scouting department for playing him that way. He had alot of hits up the middle in the minors. He'll have to adjust to that similar to teams already throwing him like 90% breaking balls in his ABs. It's weird to tell a guy to actually pull the ball more (or hit it to the right side more) when usually 95% of the time a ball up the middle is a base hit.

BackDoorBreach Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 People shitting on Eloy already is hilarious. Vlad Jr was batting like 212 with 1 HR before the last Sox series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
