ron883 Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) HR for walker. I know there were rumors about him moving to AA. I'm excited about him, but he didn't exactly torch A+ Edited July 7, 2019 by ron883 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) 23 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: Robert Walker Basabe Adolfo Rutherford Gonzalez Bush Mieses Weaver Beard Rutherford has been on an absolute tear for like 7 weeks now so I'd say he adjusted and I'd put him near the second spot - basebe had a lost year because of the injury but he'll be back and fine next year and I think he'll be solid. Edit: he has a .782 OPS in his last month and his OPS is about 825 vs righties in that stretch. In that ballpark that's pretty good. He had an .871 ops in June Basebe is even further proof, in addition to madrigal, that wrist and hand injuries destroy your power even after healing for up to 16 months. 1 HR this year.

To me, Basabe has demonstrated the most at AA. Yes, it was in 2018 but at least he can blame his lack of power this year on his hand injury. Adolfo at least has an elite carrying tool and showed improved patience at the plate (SSS admittedly). Blake just hasn’t done much for me this year. His K & BB rates remain poor even during this recent hot stretch. I’m not suggesting he’s a lost cause, but I’d take Basabe & Micker over him and day of the week. And I’ve always had Gonzalez below Basabe & Adolfo and nothing he’s done this year changes that for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutherford has been on a BABIP regression fueled tear. His BB rate, K rate, & ISO are nearly identical before and during the hot stretch. I need to see something other than a bunch of singles grouped together to think he’s actually taken a step forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his lost year he needs to work on approach and strike zone command. He'll be fine next year and still will only be 23 so its not like he's old. Sucks it happened as it delays development a year but hopefully he learns some things this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adolfo with a HUGE asterisk as I require his arm to still be a 70-80 grade arm because if he's 70 raw and 70/80 arm he has two elite tools. At one point his velocity from right field was second to no one. Injuries are a lot of "luck" as much as anything. He could never get hurt again for all we know.

Everyone gets em and it's been a while for us. Maybe he made an adjustment - all his numbers support his outcomes. He's old but not that old. Plenty of guys in the past two decades have figured it out at 25 and 26. Odds are he sucks but theres a chance he's a legit talent with the bat and catchability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
