He won gold gloves in both college and in the minors. Hense the gold glove comments... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That wasnt a speed of the game issue. That was just lazy mechanics. He was upright and unathletic. He played it glove side and had more of a chance to get in front of it. He assumed the ball would stay down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the ceiling his doubters described. Floor is utility guy. I'm not going to say he's nothing more than that but it's looking like he needs to improve a lot of areas.

He needed to be in front if the ball..but I'm not sure he had time to make the adjustment. He's still a rookie...he'll get there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to have good mechanics when you're just that unathletic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 3 minutes ago, Kalapse said: That's kind of all he did, everything else is sorely lacking. I don't think he's a playoff caliber player right now at all. Wasn’t his wRC+ like 115 this year? Seems like that’s more than starter caliber once his defense & base-running normalize to expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
