Texsox Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Rookies and younger players are inconsistent and streaky. This may just be the greatest opportunity to be a rookie. Rookies hit a wall in a traditional season. This year the WS would be over before the traditional - I've never played this many games in one year, damn I'm tired, and sore, and can't stay focused, what the hell city am I in, slump hits.

tray Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Glass half full with hitting and half empty or more with pitching. I liked a few of Milwaukee's pitchers during the 4 game series. I would trade Collins for Peralta if they would do it. They seem like they could spare one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauer is being inserted into the rotation, but he's a journeyman/AAAA with pedestrian stuff. Think they want to convert Peralta into a 2-3 inning shutdown guy who can be inserted at any critical point from the 5th innings on. Plus they have Braun, and Manny Pina, best defensive catcher in baseball, along with Omar Narvaez. Collins is completely superfluous on that roster.

tray Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Omar looks like he put on a few pounds and he is not going to hit many home runs. . Pina is 33 and has limited power. No, they could use a young LH hitting catching prospect with power We could too, if the Sox didn't sign Grandal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except pretty much nobody in baseball trusts Collins as a catcher for 65-75% of games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
