fathom Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Velocity been down last two starts. Lots of 90 that inning, doesn't seem to be throwing free and easy. Nice slider though to Guyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Rodon does like to ramp up as needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 At this rate, Sox are going to get a hell of a prospect package in return when they trade Rodon this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 With LaMarre/Engel behind him, Moncada isn't going to get much to hit. 8th is probably the worst spot to drop him to. Maybe they should move him to 6th instead. He has to have some sort of protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 That was fucking ridiculous, 3B ump. Moncada barely took the bat off his shoulder and you're going to call it a swing?? Woof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Great AB right there. Down 0-2. Spits on 2 straight sliders. Fights off a fb and crushes a change. Beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he has been possessed by a demon. That is what we need to see from Moncada way more often. Personally, I think leadoff is a bad spot for Moncada. He needs to be hitting 3rd-5th because he's a run producer and not a table setter. I understand why they placed him there in the lineup, but maybe it was counterproductive. He should be hitting cleanup vs RHP and 6th vs LHP. Edited August 11, 2018 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dam8610 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Looks like Moncada is responding well to the lineup move. Walk (off of Bieber, which is hard to do) and a double so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 That was probably the most complete AB I've seen of his since the ASB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) It's shocking to me to see the Sox approach tonight or just taking first pitch fastball after first pitch fastball. Also please move Yolmer down to like 11th in the order. Edited August 11, 2018 by fathom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I'd love for Nicky to be good, I don't think he's more than a last man off the bench. Whenever Eloy check some boxes would be nice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) There really are a lot of schmucks in this lineup. Go figure as it is created by Schmuckalufugus himself, Ricky Renteria. Edited August 11, 2018 by Jack Parkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
