September 11, 20187 yr Speaking of Jimenez, where is he? Has anyone seen him? Last year he was working out with the team in September, did some interviews, etc.
September 11, 20187 yr Author This is why you push pitchers to grow their innings as they move up in the system. If you want them to pitch in October eventually, they have to be able to get through September.

Honestly, I think the Sox got played a bit on the service time game. You win some, you lose some. Kopech probably knew that something was wrong weeks ago, and tried to pitch through it until he was called up. The guy had nothing to lose and everything to gain by doing that. He won on this one. The only way Kopech wasn't going to get called up in September was if he continued to get bombed and walk the world. That didn't happen, so his gamble paid off. Kopech would have been an idiot to say anything about his elbow until he got called up or he couldn't pitch and his velo was way down. Edited September 13, 20187 yr by Jack Parkman

September 14, 20187 yr Twins players are irked about Buxton and his service time manipulation. Not the same case as Eloy but still interesting that the players are complaining

I hope others appreciate it as much as I do. It's better than the "Kramer and Newmann" picture of the Oakland pitchers. (Seinfeld characters for you young un's).
