White Sox vs Athletics: Reylo against Bassitt


Recommended Posts

Without question... Given Lopez’ seemingly fragile psyche, Grandal possesses the optimal combination of; catching experience, game calling confidence, relentless opposition research/intelligence and pitch framing expertise, needed to successfully navigate Lopez through his pitching starts.

Grandal will be a breath of fresh air for us fans and the staff after years of bad framing.

Unfortunately, an inability to effectively  locate his pitches continues to be Fulmer’s Achilles Heal.

Yup he has absolutely zero idea where the ball is going and his stuff isn't good enough to be "effectively wild".  Leaves a lot of 94 mph flat fastballs in the zone.

Robert works a walk.  Solid AB.  Chance for Madrigal to drive in a run.

That was a great AB. Showed a good eye laying off those low and away breaking pitches. He is going to see a diet of those this season and it's important he starts to spit on those.

If he could be at least below-average with the bat (rather than one of the worst in the league on that end) I'd love him as a backup. Above-average and you're talking about a starting CF. 

Above average with the bat and you are talking about one of the top 3 CF'ers in the game and a 5 WAR type of player.
