SoxAce Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Dan, Alex, I know not too many people say this much, but I really do appreciate these threads saying how our spects do in each game. It's a very underrated job you guys do to let posters here who love prospects (like myself) keep informed of it.. Nice work. : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work. : Yeah, I got lazy with them this year because people didn't seem too care much. I guess people like reading them and not posting, which is completely fine, I just wasn't able to probably gauge the interest.

DBAHO Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Always good to see Lumsden pitch well. He's been very solid this season so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Man it seems like all Sweeney does is hit. Ever since he joined the Sox everytime I look at his BA it's always hovering around .300. If only he could develop some power... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Spencer Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Yeah, I got lazy with them this year because people didn't seem too care much. I follow the Knights through out the season, but I like reading about our other minor league teams too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palehosefan Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I have never been so excited over a draft pick, this kid has so much potential oozing out of him. Not to rain on your parade, but Cruz is already 23 years old and hitting in low A ball. I do think if we move him to Kannapolis soon that he could hold his own.

BlackBetsy Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Can someone please figure out how to automatically flash Sweeney's ISO on FutureSox.com? That's what we REALLY need. When his ISO hits .200, we can have a party as he is called up to Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Okay BB, your gonna have to tell me what ISO is. Is that what Baseball Prospectus uses in its predictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBetsy Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 01:51 PM) Okay BB, your gonna have to tell me what ISO is. Is that what Baseball Prospectus uses in its predictions? ISO is "Isolated Power". It is pretty straightforward - Slugging Percentage minus Batting Average. It gives you a measure of how much power a hitter has. Good examples on the Sox - Podsednik's ISO is .128. That's actually pretty high for Scott - last year he had a ISO of .069. That's a singles-hitter only. Thome is the opposite. His ISO is .324. Roughly speaking, when he gets a hit, it's a double on average. An ISO of .200 is usually considered decent power. .300 is very, very good power. ISO's on the Sox: Konerko: .261 Iguchi: .136 Crede: .221 Pods: .128 Thome: .324 Pierzynski: .120 (looooowwww) Dye: .312 (awesome) Uribe: .164 Anderson: .132 Garland: 1.500 (for fun) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
