Jake Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 FWIW, Davidson's homer was 109mph off the bat. Palka's subsequent lineout was smashed also: 115.5mph exit velo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things just aren’t equal. In his defense, I believe the two biggest free agent contracts weve ever given to starting pitchers belong to Jaime Navarro 22 years ago and Derek Holland. Little misleading given extensions and trades but Sox have never been a team to give money to the rotation and they expect Cooper to make it work anyways.

And it's fair to try to make the argument that Cooper has nothing to do with it and in fact it's our front office/scouts who have been able to identify pitching talent. It's a tricky thing to identify without being there and witnessing the coaching and knowing what the people involved were thinking. We have also heard at times that Coop is involved in some of our personnel decisions about pitchers, which blurs the lines even further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Sad that Giolito had a better at bat than a few of the regulars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has stopped topping everything like he did in his first 15 or 20 ABs, which is a positive in that all the hand movement looks nice when it ends up turning into contact. I'm still not sure where to put him in the field, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Engel looking better at leadoff than I thought he would.. maybe since he hit leadoff at Louisville it’s a good spot for him.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a no-brainer to keep him over Smith but he's had some issues catching the ball and has had his strikeout rate mysteriously shoot way up.
