Benetti still acts like the broadcast is "Benetti Comedy Hour"

Q looks awful

Doubt he would be at camp if it was his kid

Still little strange no Anderson update

Any Anderson update

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Mar 18, 2017 -> 08:33 PM) Fulmer not looking very sharp Stuff is just nowhere near what it used to be

Very good coach, it's definitely an upgrade but not sure he can recruit Chicago

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Mar 17, 2017 -> 10:13 PM) Kopech is going to dominate the minors this season If he stays healthy, he will be top prospect in baseball after this year

Kopech might have the best stuff I've ever seen from a starting pitcher prospect

Hearing Bo talk about the manager situation, it's ridiculous Robin was given as much time as he was

Sox base running seems to be very bad so far this spring

Wasn't Drew voted dirtiest coach by his peers?

Ironic the SAT matchup has that happen

Seems likely the Braves have made best Q offer https://www.fanragsports.com/mlb/heyman-11-...pring-training/

Porter dad to Mizzou

Moncada!

Anderson is great. Moncada is horrific defensively

By all means, they should be patient with Giolito. It's fine, Lopez is a beast

QUOTE (GermanSock @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 10:07 PM) I think the velocity will come back. What I'm concerned about more is the reports on the low spin rate (little movement) on the fastball. Even when he was hitting 94 his swinging strike rates were not great. Not sure what do make out of this. Maybe he should add another pitch that is less dependent on spin (sinker), I don't know. If his command was better the straight fastball would be less of an issue (I think kershaws 4 seamer is also pretty straight) but if your heater is straight and not located well it is going to get hammered even at 94 (maybe he would get away with it at 100). He gets this year in AAA to see if what he has works. If not, I agree you see if he can become a sinkerballer. Being a power pitcher with his lack of spin rate on his fastball won't work if his velocity remains in low 90s

30 pitches, no swinging strikes. Anyone ranking him over Kopech is insane

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 09:35 PM) I haven't watched any of ST but hasn't Gio's fastball been fine up until today? Not getting much, if any, swings and misses on it from what I have seen this spring. His strikeouts were called looking in the game I saw

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Mar 14, 2017 -> 09:30 PM) Giolito looks awful. Yes haven't been impressed by him this spring. Looks the same as last year

He's going to get hammered in the majors with this type of velocity

Very puzzling what has happened to Giolito's fastball. Looks to be sitting around 91.5-92. Gets so few swings and misses on his fastball

I still question if Keatts's tenure at Louisville will pass a background check. Scared off at least one team last year
