southsider2k5 Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 I laughed at this line... "All I know I've got to do is give up less runs than we score," Sale said. "I don't care about anything else. Not the numbers. Not the ISPFMLBLSSRs and whatever else Brian Kenny has come up with to define what makes a good player or not."

witesoxfan Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 It's funny, but as we discussed to a pretty good extent in the sabermetrics thread, pitching comes down to not walking guys, trying to strike guys out, and throwing ground balls when they do hit it. Sale is a little more prone to giving up homers, which is something he can improve over time, but the first 3 are things he does incredibly well, and it really is that simple.

Quin Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 In the meantime, a 24-year-old infielder will continue playing at Triple-A, where he's hitting .224 with a .637 OPS. His name is Christian Colon. The Royals took him with the fourth overall pick. If he ever makes it to the major leagues, scouts believe he'll be a utilityman. But we need to keep up with their farm system! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
