This is an encouraging article and will be interesting to see if it carries to his next one. -
Sawx @ Sox, 7:10, 8/31- Kopech Night III

Bah! More rain. -
It would be better if he wasn't making those calls.
-
If Robert can get healthy and play a full year he could supplant Engel, but you could do worse with a 4th OF than can play like that defensively and hit .250.
-
When this team is he will definitely be no higher than 7th or 8th because of his OBP woes, but his defense, power, SB capabilities is definitely valuable. I guess he is hitting there now anyways, but I agree he can still be valuable when the Sox are good. He also seems to be liked on the team and possibly could be leader material.
-
He is better on the bases, maybe slightly worse in the field but improving. His power could get better too. I agree he could end up better.

Yanks having some issues in the field tonight.

wow. Nice DP to get out of the inning.
-
I think so. Gio has been better. Rodon has been good, I won't call it great until he gets his Ks up. Kopech is up and hopefully will be the real deal. That is 3/5 rotation being what I would call good. That is a big step up from the first half of the season. Offense has been getting a lot more homeruns of late. They have had less games where the offense looks completely overmatched. We may be climbing out of bottom of the rebuild....maybe.

Wait until Eloy comes up next year...then we could have something here. But it has been much better to watch the last month or so.
-
Thanks for the stats. He may be better suited for 3rd-5th spot if he continues to hit this well with guys on base.
-
I liked Yoan's aggressiveness on the first pitch. He doesn't do it enough and I like it in an RBI situation. I don't have any stats to back it up, but it seems like he performs better with guys on base.

Pretty good Players Tribune Article from Eloy. Some interesting things from his perspective on his childhood and coming to Chicago as a kid for baseball tournaments. The title of the article says it all as well....and it is true. He is ready. https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/eloy-jimenez-white-sox-chicago-im-ready

I wonder if Kiley will have a write up too. Does he normally do one of starts he sees in person?
