Credit to Chris Bosio for Arrieta, but Bosio is out of baseball for possibly having made a racist remark. One great pitching coach, but too radioactive to handle in today's world.
He's got the stuff that Aces are made of. He needs to be coached up right. If anyone thinks our pitching coach is a miracle worker (not I) here's his chance to prove it.
Landed with his heel on top of the bag and his toes on the ground. He never learned that the fastest and safest way to first is to land on the front part of the bag. He's still my favorite Sox of the moment and it could have been worse than 6-8 weeks.
You nailed the root of his offensive problems. It's only a drop from 34.7 to 30.4 on 3's, but it sure seems worse. I cringe when he looks like he's going to launch one.
He'll join an existing culture with strong leadership who will take him by the hand (figuratively) and point him in the right direction. Or drive him to O'Hare if he biffs up.
Can't blame the last coach for trying to make him a PG when there were no other options available. Now we're swimming in PG's. The coach was prolly acting at management's orders anyway. Coby's become better at it over the course of his career.
Trading Vuc now would be management admitting they made a huge mistake; something that management almost never does, according to Stanky's Theory of Human Resources. Either way, they need some rim protection, preferably the kind that can shoot a 3 once in a while.
Coach let Mahomes talk him into taking a shot, blew it, then put a lid on him 2nd half. NFL football can be interesting if it doesn't involve an unwatchable Bears team.
You nailed the root of it. It's a made-for-TV rule that puts championships (and $100's of millions) at the mercy of a coin toss. Might be OK for the regular season but too arbitrary for the playoffs.
