bmags Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 There are few things as beautiful to me as Tim Anderson going from 1st to Home, especially when he rounds 3rd. And soon I can add to that Luis Robert going from Home to Third. Although Tim runs so much more violently than robert so it's still kinda more fun to me.

Anderson runs kind of like a moron, it's amazing that he's so fast. Robert looks like a sprinter. That dude should be playing wide out for the bears. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's really bad getting out of the box, but when he gets going it's like seeing old timey roberto clemente clips where he's flailing his arms and sliding in to the base like a mortal combat finishing move. I love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinski Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Rutherford is on the younger side still. Repeating wouldn’t be the end of the world. Robert should hit AAA and reach majors when service time issues dictates. I know as a fans this is frustrating but it’s about winning long term. If he’s extendable in summer he should start CF 2020.

And Indianapolis has been aggressively swinging early in the count. If it makes you feel better, he's up to 4 SO now through 6 (gave up 2 runs though).

I was wondering if they were trying to aggressively swing early in the count. Thanks for the update.

DirtySox Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Madrigal! If there's a player that can adjust and evolve to get to the most of his abilities, it's him. Don't give up hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightsOnMintSt Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 I imagine that Cease is getting called up relatively soon. They seem to be letting him go deeper and deeper into games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 5 hours ago, SoxAce said: Keep in mind Eloy had over 800+ more AB's in the minors than Robert before he hit AAA. Obviously development is linear with some (and Robert did play in a pro league as a youngster) but he hasn't been Juan Soto good either. I like him hitting AAA this year too though to finish out the year. We'll see where he's at in 2020. Personally, I can't wait to see him in the futures game (which he will be a shoe in to be picked). It's all about leagues and parks in the minors. Robert's wRC+ after today is going to be around 170. Juan Soto's AA wRC+ was 171. In that park Robert is absolutely dominating.
