southsider2k5 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Matt Ball is off to a decent start working out of the pen. He is a guy that a lot of people were pretty excited about on draft day, and he has just been a huge bust since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Love that Lassiter and Coats, two guys I was higher on than most, are both starting off hot. They are similar in some ways - outfielders taken late in the draft after issues in college (knee blow-out for Coats, personal issues for Lassiter). Both guys that normally would have gone much higher in the draft. Neither with any super-loud tools, but both with a number of good to very good tools. Those guys tend to fly under the radar.

CWSpalehoseCWS Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Jeez, Danny Hayes is 0-15 with 10 K's and 2 BB's. Talk about a rough go for your first season in Triple-A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of shocking how bad he's been in his first two outings. Agreed. He looked pretty good in ST. Could be a matter of adjusting to a new team, league etc. I think he will be fine but he may take longer than some expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, because a kid who was drafted less than a year ago, and is pitching at AA struggled in his first two starts, you don't believe the hype? To put it into perspective, Sale and Rodon are pretty much historical figures with how soon they not only made it to the majors, but how well they have performed since getting there. Even Fulmer being at AA is about two years ahead of what a normal top draft pick would be doing. Quitting on Fulmer is crazy talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
