The Indians aren't known for big lefties was my point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're just letting us know you would've known the deal before it was public but how is Pilkington the kind of pitcher Cleveland likes? They seem to like guys with control over guys with overwhelming stuff if you are getting a pitcher who can be taught other things who might have some upside with the FB and secondary pitches. Plus outside of that it wouldn't take a genius to think that if you had to choose among some of our guys like Stiever and Lambert who the Sox might not have given up that Pilkington was having a good year and that seems to be a deciding factor in the prospects that are getting traded now. Of course I know you are just asking me this so you can shoot me down . Let me then ask you this ? Why is it such a big secret for you to say who the Sox were targeting in a Samardzija trade. It happened 6 years ago. What's the big deal there ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 The guys Cleveland have had success with are either super athletes (Bieber, Plesac, Civale, Mckenzie) or have hellacious shit (Karnachak, Clase) and Pilkington is neither of those. His ceiling is a cheap back of the rotation guy on a rebuilding team. He has no future with the Sox. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of injuries and performance fading since the substance ban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
