Just when you think you've seen it all, ricky gets you again. Why not? Of all the moves he’s made, that made the most sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between mendick and collins is probably near zero; the likelihood of Collins getting up again with he sox only having a 1 run lead is far greater than the chance that mendicks "speed" scores where collins doesn't. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Mendick is faster and a run is a run. Unless game goes into extra innings why not pinch run there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Parkman has already admitted he could’ve been wrong about Collins after he went back down to AAA, changed his stance, and started to tear it up?

kitekrazy Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Well there is a comment I will save after the game since I did mention the "what if" when Marshall came in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's called "getting ahead of it". He got called out after Collins start raking and tried to change his position. Because apparently 20 something year olds with long swings are unable to shorten up. Edited September 4, 2019 by BackDoorBreach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but Collins did make a big change. He is crouching much more in his stance which shrunk his strike zone a bit and it’s also helping him lay off the high heat. This change along with his already amazing patience will hopefully lead to continued success. I’m sure Parkman is happy to be wrong. The funny thing is we still don’t know if he can catch on a consistent basis because he hasn’t had the opportunity but his bat looks like it has potential.

Sarava Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 This team really could explode next year with the right off-season moves. Several players look primed to go nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, but it was silly in the first place to write him off because of a mechanical issue. It was something easily fixable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look how many think Rutherford will never make it or any of the Sox OF prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
