Soxfest Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 1, 2013 -> 04:06 PM) You've come to this conclusion after 2 regular season ABs. No nothing to do with today he is not a true number 3 hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Dye Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 1, 2013 -> 04:06 PM) This ump has a huge plate for Shields. He's giving him both corners of the plate. Love how baseball season brings my paranoia and conspiracy theory side back into view after a long rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shago Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 1, 2013 -> 04:05 PM) I am not a fan of Rios in the 3 spot longterm. HECK of a lot better than Adam f'n Dunn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 If that's a strike then the one to flowers wasn't. You can't give him 6 inches off both corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Flower's will realize this and call for more fastballs. Ump missing Sale curve. Shields getting the corners on fastballs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and say that's ridiculous. If you use the traditional definition of a 3 hitter, you are looking for a guy who hits for average, power, and has speed. That's Alex Rios. If you want the sabermetric definition of a 3 hitter, you are looking for a guy who primarily gets on base and hits for power, strikeouts and average be damned. That's Adam Dunn.

Jake Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Chris looks as good as I've ever seen him, stuff and command wise. Now using two different speeds on his breaking ball and using the changeup more deftly and effectively than I've seen before. Hope he keeps it rolling!

I think Adam Dunn, if he's right, is our ideal #3 hitter. Whether or not he can back to a .360+ OBP, however, is a big question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
