scenario Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 (edited) Clayton Richard should start hitting fans' radar screens pretty soon. He is starting to look like what the Sox hoped for when they drafted him. 9 very good to excellent performances in his last 10 starts. WHIP around 1.00 for the year. K/BB almost 4:1. ERA at 2.64 after 12 starts. Nice to see from a 6'5" left-handed starter. Very nice. Also, I have a feeling that Stefan Gartrell is about to catch fire. He had a slow start this year because he basically skipped a level... moving up to the Barons after only 70-something at-bats in Winston-Salem last fall. I think he's another David Cook only 3 years younger. It will be interesting to see how he does in the 2nd half once he adjusts to AA pitching.

DBAHO Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Richard is comparable to Heath Phillips though. Don't think he's really in the Sox's long term plans right now. Good to see him pitching well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he's really in the Sox's long term plans right now. Good to see him pitching well though. Not sure you can compare fat-body Phillips to a guy who is athletic enough to play major college football. Got a scouting report to share? A 2005 Baseball America report said Richard throws low-90's. I don't think Phillips ever got close to throwing that hard. Richard's problem, so far, in the Sox system has been somewhat suspect control. But if that starts to come around for him, which it has so far this season, then hey... what's not to like? As far as not being in the Sox plans... a successful starter in the minors is always in a team's plans... especially if he's left-handed... if for no other reason than being a good bargaining chip.

Chisoxfn Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Richard is not at all like Heath Phillips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Egbert: 7 IP, 3 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 4 K That's better. FWIW, the Charlotte press release said he was sitting mid 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Thats stellar. Egbert obviously had a rough start but the ability is there and Ken Williams the org really were impressed with Egbert last season. He has a very good ability to pitch and he's starting to get his feel back (or at least i hope he is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
