chitownsportsfan Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 06:32 PM) Good news is this spring has hopefully shown Montas he can't just throw 100 mph at this level without good command and be successful. Yea no doubt. Seems unless he has a major breakthrough he's ticketed for a career in the pen, possibly as an elite closer, but still -- in the pen. Secondary pitchers are as rough as advertised. They aren't even that bad stuff wise he just can't command them at all it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been a massive disappointment based off of his 2013 numbers. Hopefully Albers can be a solid contributor, as this bullpen looks to be pretty thin.

He has talent, but if he can't get his control issues fixed he will be doing something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 23, 2015 -> 04:51 PM) His speed should be fine at least. He looks much faster from losing the weight. The real question will be how hesitant he is with balls close to fence or within diving range cause of his shoulder. The real issue is terrible jumps and routes, IMO.

Yep, his jumps are poor, which combined with his slow acceleration out of the gate results in significantly less range than you'd expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
