joejoesox Posted March 1, 2009 Author Share Posted March 1, 2009 QUOTE (Cubano @ Mar 1, 2009 -> 02:44 PM) I want to see somebody to hit a thunder at him. He has not strikeout yet by the way. He swang a bad slider for strike one, but he showed good eye with the same pitch with two strikes. well he just did, he doesn't seem to be recognizing any pitches, whether it's due to nervousness or something else idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Mar 1, 2009 -> 02:39 PM) Corky Miller looks like a good back-up catcher candidate. He's a very good defender, and a smart player. But look at his career hitting numbers - he just can't hit. I hope he's suddenly "figured it out", but, I doubt it, and this is a very small sample size. I'd rather have Stewart as of this point, but we'll see how the rest of spring goes. Also, we're in game 5, and this is the number of games/at-bats we've seen the candidates for backup C so far: Flowers: 3 games, 5 AB Miller: 2 games, 4 AB*** (playing today) Stewart: 1 game, 3 AB Armstrong: 1 game, 1 AB Lucy: 0, 0 I am starting to think that Lucy isn't seen as a real candidate for the job. I guess he'll be in Charlotte trying to prove he's healthy. And we are seeing very little of Cole so far as well, which surprises me. This MIGHT be because they want to see Flowers early before sending him to minor league camp, since I don't think they are really considering him for backup C this year.

I think Viciedo could be very good, but he's very raw, and as long as Fields is looking good, there isn't any good reason to carry Viciedo just yet.

Betemit is a utility player. Utility players must caught the ball if they are in the Majors. These are not rockets guys. These connections are very catchable. I bet you that Betemit played in the Winter League. I have to check though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea is to work on these things and get ready for the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
