maggsmaggs Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Man, early game. I don't understand why the Sox move so slowly with these older guys like Shoemaker. I can understand with young guys taking it slow, but with a 24-year-old in Low-A? Come on. He needs to move to High-A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Only a few games, but Phegley holding his own in AAA so far. My AAP Remenowsky putting up unusual numbers for him. 1:1 K:BB ratio, striking out less than a guy an inning... but, hitters aren't hitting him either. I wonder if they have him working on something that is changing his approach, or if the hitters are that different, or what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all accounts he's pretty awful behind the plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) Addison Reed is having an amazing Hudson-like fast-track year. Gotta think the Sox will bring him up in September. Edited July 19, 2011 by scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 And the one positive about Reed coming so fast is that it heads off ANY possibility KW will deal Viciedo for a rental "top-notch veteran RH reliever" to complement Crain/Bruney the last 2 months.

No he's not. He did well from what I saw of him. The only concern would be passed balls, but that's easy to work on. The pitchers seem to like his game calling.

I feel like we have a history of guys getting to the AAA level, stalling/struggling when they first get called up, then winding up having success with other franchises.

The only concern would be passed balls, but that's easy to work on. The pitchers seem to like his game calling. I haven't heard many scouts that think Phegley will be able to remain at catcher. His defense has been the knock since drafted. Though of course it doesn't really matter if he continues to not hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know much about Sabermetrics, but even I know you don't live and die by scouting info this day and age. Did you just completely ignore what I wrote? I'll make it more simple...pitchers like throwing to him, he calls a good game. I have watched him play a lot and I haven't been overly concerned about what I saw.

Reed has much better control... and as a result is putting up some sick numbers. Reed's studliness really should circumvent any crazy trade for a RH reliever. He's on a rocket, and might get here before September even. And if he's not perfect right off the bat, well, hopefully we learned a lesson from last year's evaluation of Huddy. I'd guess that the info that puts us in the mix for HBell, etc. is a few weeks old, and began before the pen really solidified for us.

Generalized statements such as "pitchers like throwing to him" do not negate his defensive faults. It matters to the organization. Teams want a catcher who works well with pitchers, that's what most important from the catching position.

I didn't think he'd do well as an outfielder, but I was wrong. I also said corrective lenses, and he may be wearing contact lenses. Of course, his bat is his biggest draw, so his position is irrelevant. Edited July 19, 2011 by JPN366 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPN366 Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I simply drew the obvious conclusion from seeing a guy have trouble catching flyballs in the infield. Didn't exactly scream future adequate outfielder with good vision. He never made any boneheaded errors at third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Fyi, JPN has seen these guys play on a daily basis. The people writing the scouting reports come down for a weekend series if that and make that statement, most of it just restating what they knew about the kid from the draft than what they actually see with their eyes.
