Shhh, don't say the quiet part out loud. 

Has there even been a major Sox prospect coming out of the rebuild that hasn't been disappointing in some way? 

He was such a freaking beast when he returned from the injury last year. What the heck happened?

The momentum feels like it's completely changed. 

Even up 1-0 to me if felt like they had the momentum. Getting a lot more guys on base than we are. Plus this strike zone and check swing calls are nearly 100% one sided.

He was never going to be a 40 Homer per season kind of guy.  But he's not Mark Grace or John Olerud either.

He was supposed to have a lot more power than what he’s shown, but it’s still too early to judge him

Can't wait to see 102 mph Duran fastballs and 92-93 mph sliders for two innings later on...

That's gonna look like it's 110 compared to Bundy's 89

Vaughn's power has been disappointing imo. 

The Sox preach a middle-away approach with all of their young hitters and it's very tough to hit for power when you're doing that. AV's power is to the pull side and he doesn't tap into it nearly enough.

No, it seems he kinda is Grace/Olerud until he proves otherwise.

The Twins just have a better lineup and having better at bats.  The Sox lack any plan at the plate.
