chw42 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 3, 2012 -> 02:38 PM) Speaking of the draft, remember last year when everyone laughed at the Cubs for taking Hayden Simpson in the first RD, a guy that wasn't even considered a top 250 prospect? Well, we were all right. In 114 pro innings since being drafted, he has a 6.59 ERA, 151 H, 67 BB, and 71 K to go along with a 1.90 WHIP. LOL. Absolutely terrible. Despite being awful, they have progressed him from RK to Low-A, and now High-A. In High-A, he has MORE THAN TWICE as many walks (29) as he does strikeouts (14) in 35 innings. His WHIP is 2.18. Good lord, he might be the worst 1st RD pick I have ever heard of so far. Wow, that is just epic fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 It's hard for me to hate Rios anymore. He's having a good season. Maybe he was just a bad ballplayer when he was a centerfielder and can relax more in right or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow, I didn't know he had such a low K rate. His FIP is 5.4. So yeah...he is skating by on luck. That K rate has to be lower than Lowe's. (see what I did there?)

Sox could have easily scored 2 more runs in that inning had he not deflected those grounders. I actually give him credit for those plays. Luck plays a huge facor as to where the deflection will end up, but the effort (and instinct) to throw up a bare hand (or in this case, kick a foot out) is a good way to help save an earned run sometimes.
