Benetti who cares man...

Derek holland launching pad

This is Hollands issue. He is a fly ball pitcher. He has been great but when it warms up in that bandbox with the juice apparently back in the balls, it will get ugly.

Wow is Holland pitching terrible. Almost four homers that inning

Some days you just don't have it.

Ugh.

 

Are you an equal opportunity evaluator of bad fielding? Regardless of the error Holland has given up three home runs

Abreu should have never been in the field. He is absolutely atrocious out there. When he is hitting, he can pass as a DH. When he inevitably goes into his awful slumps, he just isn't very valuable.

Yes, bad error but the pitcher has to pitch over it. he gets some blame.

Swing its down the fng middle

Baby steps but Anderson hitting ball a little harder this week

This is when we start to step in the not-fun part of the rebuild. Really get in close, get a good whiff of that rebuild.

Won't be long before we have Moncada in the majors to hold our interest, not much beyond that, though.

When it's going bad there is plenty of blame to go around

Delmonico, Fulmer, Lopez, & Burdi too. Those four, Moncada, Anderson, & hopefully Rodon at some point should be enough to keep me watching regularly.

Nice hit for Anderson. As bad of a base running decision as I've ever seen though

Really davidson? Did you go to the alejandro de aza school of base running

Who, then, should be the starting 1B if Abreu goes to DH? Frazier? From what I have seen, he is worse than Abreu. Asche? Please, no. Davidson? Please, no.

 

Guys, I saw the play, too. It was horsepoop. But Abreu is still best option on this team. Unless they bring up Hayes??

Anderson has Bone Thugz - Crossroads as his walkup song. Must be in memory of his friend

Well, it's somewhat understandable with Narvaez up next, but not good with the play right in front of him.

 

Not surprised the White Sox have been in the bottom 5 for walk rate over the last five years in all of MLB, and 30th this year.

 

Scouting/evaluation.

 

 

And it was nice to see Avi turn viciously on an inside pitch and pull it.

Abreu has easily been worst everyday 1b since he started in the majors

Sano is the equivalent of the player that Cubs' fans are hyping with Babe Schwarber....just few know about him because he plays for the Twins.

Burdi's gonna be cool. I like Lopez, I'm intrigued by delmonico but expectations are very tempered, Fulmer's a wild card but I'll definitely tune in.

 

I think you listed them in order of future value: meh+, solid, good, awesome.
