fathom Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) Flowers is going to lead the league in strikeouts looking. He has a terrible tendency to take 2 strike pitches down the plate for strike 3 or chase 2 strike pitches off the plate.

oldsox Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I think the Sox should carry one less pitcher and one more position player, especially since we will be having interleague games throughout the season. Why do we need 12 pitchers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do we need 12 pitchers? I would love for them to have a 3rd catcher on the roster so that Ventura can have someone hit for Flowers if there's a tough righty reliever on the mound. With that said, the only viable person to send down from the bullpen would be Veal if you want to use Santiago more in LHP/lefty hitter situations.

The Ginger Kid Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I still think Flowers has to get regular AB's before we pass judgement. Yes, he may K a lot, but his swing is pretty sound and he's got some serious pop. I think you have to give him a chance to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind it if he strikes out every once in awhile, but when he does it looking- i get upset! If its close and your down 2 strikes- SWING the bat!! Oy Vey!

I dont think it would shock anyone if he continues to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2013 -> 07:51 PM) BTW, coming into tonight, the Sox had 10 less walks than any other AL team and 29th overall. That renewed emphasis on OBP is really paying off. Other than Keppinger, Konerko and Dunn, we're in HUGE trouble in this area...and it's going to be a season-long issue. Maybe Flowers will pick up some walks, but his expected low BA will mitigate his walk totals. And this just in...Matt Thornton should have been traded after the 2011 season, when he still had value.
