Stupid Sox.  Taking a guy out of Juco in the 1st round.  Kenny loves his athletes! His defense is terrible!  Poor scouting!  Oh great, Rick signed him to an extension- waste of money!  This organization is a complete joke!

the Sox can’t identify young talent!

When people talk about the team's drafting, this pick is conveniently ignored. From a value standpoint to date, it's one of the best picks in that entire draft.

Yes.  And one of the ballsiest 1st round picks this organization ever took.  There was like zero track record on him.

He's the most extreme version of picks that get criticized as being 'pure athletes'. Worked out alright.

I am really happy but kind of shocked. There were four or five AL players with better OPS than Tim at month end. Maybe it was the total package.

These awards, unless someone goes on a crazy power streak, tend to go to guys with good #battingaverage

Five tool players are rare.  Tim is really flashing all the tools this year.

Tim has drawn two walks this series which is good. I love Timmy Anderson and think he'll be an all star this season.

His contact hasn't really regressed, but his BABIP is starting to drop a little, as expected. Just the luck evening out. So it's definitely encouraging to see him walk in the meantime. I think our all-stars will be Abreu and one of Anderson/Moncada, with the other getting snubbed. I guess Colome or Herrera could be in that conversation too.

Much deserved.


Now don't fall off a cliff, Timmy. 

That's my biggest worry.  I'm afraid that April was just an aberration, and Anderson (and Moncada) will come back down to Earth sooner rather than later.

It was an aberration in the sense that Anderson isn't gonna be a .375 hitter. He's already well below that. But even in this "slump" of sorts, he's still making pretty good contact.
