It only seemed possible to people who haven't been willing to accept that Vaughn was their left fielder and he was not going down to work on things. He was going to work on things at the big league level.
I'll say this, sure is good news that the Sox kept giving Vaughn his ab's vs righties so he could right the ship. Could be a monster second half from vaughny
Couldn't pay me to take a high school righty who throws 100. I wouldn't touch high schoolers throwing that hard. Growing into velocity is what succeeds more times than not. Early velocity often times doesn't hold or maintain, or leads to injury.
I know nothing about the kid, but I like northern high school kids because they oftentimes can be overlooked tbe most. Sesms like a great athlete and I loved his swing.
They're pretty damn far apart. You start off in a 17.5 run hole as a dh vs a 7.5 run role as a LF'er. A -9 run LF earns more positional value than a DH
Even if your idea is to have Eloy DH most of the time, he's still going to have to play the field on occasion. Not going to win a World Series with Eloy on the bench because he can't pick up a glove anymore.
Well he's already done after 1 inning so..,,
The actual results and usage are whom
Kopech isn't a guy you try and "get work" when he can't work like a normal reliever,
