Buehrle>Wood Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 QUOTE (ChiSoxFan05 @ Oct 18, 2013 -> 02:20 AM) Was Puig this hyped out of Cuba? No don't think Puig was hyped at all. I forget what the reason was, perhaps that he never performed in front of American scouts. Dodgers knew something no one else though and offered big money.

He's acclaimed as the best hitter out of Cuba... Ever. One scout has said that he could even be the best current baseball hitter ON THE PLANET. Other tools however, not so much. He's a different type of beast than Puig or Cespedes... A f***ing BEAST thou, non the less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 17, 2013 -> 09:23 PM) He is a hitter. Weak-average fielder and not athletic. Puig and Cespedes have the tools but Abreu had more offense in Cuba than both of them. So basically he is just a pure hitter? No speed?

fathom Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Jeff Passan @JeffPassan 1m Astros also are out on Abreu. Other reports indicate Red Sox out.

I forget what the reason was, perhaps that he never performed in front of American scouts. Dodgers knew something no one else though and offered big money. Puig's character issues were cited as potential weakness, as well as the belief that he needed MiLB seasoning, which he did, though he jumped quicker than people thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan562004 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 If the sealed bid thing was a gimmick, there's a chance that a lot of this smoke is Abreu's people trying to get the sox to 70m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
