fathom Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Aug 8, 2015 -> 02:37 AM) I want a bat this offseason. If we spend big money on Shark and not a bat I'm going to be pissed off. Not a huge bat, but I think Derek Norris for catcher could make sense. Padres have Hedges waiting to take over.

greg775 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Second and third nobody out and that happens? LOL. Saladino - overmatched, whiff. Abreu - clueless on the strikeout pitch way outside of the zone; waved at it like a complete stiff. Melky - nice little drive to right; Royals have Sox scouted perfectly; Rios makes it look harder than it was. LOL. Failure. Bad teams don't score in that situation; we have a bad team!

oldsox Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Not sure of the rule on that ground rule double by Trayce. I think that ball hit the left fielder before it bounced into the stands. Should be two bases from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abreu REALLY has to fix some of his horrible at bats. They guy gives away 30% of his at bats and still almost hits .300. It's ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 7, 2015 -> 07:40 PM) Way more Lincecum-ish than Danish. Fulmer absolutely dominated the best conference in the NCAA. Biggest concern with him, IMO, is his mediocre command. I'm excited about his potential, but I have a feeling his first year will resemble Rodon's this year. L.Ron said earlier Danks delivery is max effort and that could describe Fulmer from what I've been reading and because of that some see him as a reliever. He night need a few years before we see him at the big league level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He night need a few years before we see him at the big league level. His delivery reminded me of McCarthy. It's really quick and he flies through it. Didn't make me think of Danks. He's not as lanky so it's like he just starts and explodes forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
