June 10, 20187 yr Sucks that 3 of top 12-13 guys are sitting...free the Kraken. Edited June 10, 20187 yr by caulfield12

June 10, 20187 yr Curbelo has had a nice start in Kanny. Adams with only a few Ks today but has continued his resurgence.
June 10, 20187 yr How much longer do they continue to start Fulmer? They have to try him in the bullpen sooner rather than later, right? Also, whomever the scout is that was watching Vanderbilt games in 2015 and recommended Fulmer over Buehler needs to shitcanned. Edited June 10, 20187 yr by Jack Parkman

Also, whomever the scout is that was watching Vanderbilt games in 2015 and recommended Fulmer over Buehler needs to shitcanned. Today looked like progress. Only one walk, so the control is improving. Next step command in the zone. Unless the MLB team needs a RH reliever quickly, I would continue to let him learn.

Wonder how long Fulmer would have lasted if Sox did not take him.....

June 11, 20187 yr Dylan Covey is more than two years older than Fulmer. What Covey's doing right now is good evidence of why you don't take a guy with good stuff and convert him into a reliever because he gets beat up after getting rushed through the minors.

June 11, 20187 yr Encouraged that Robert's at least making contact in the early going...the power will come, that's not going to be a problem with his frame and athleticism. So far, (considering the rust and abbreviated Extended Spring schedule) just 6 k's in 23 at-bats.

Panicking is the dumbest thing you can do with Fulmer. Hell last year there were more than a few people who wanted to sent Covey back to Oakland, no questions asked.
June 11, 20187 yr Just now, Jake said: Dylan Covey is more than two years older than Fulmer. What Covey's doing right now is good evidence of why you don't take a guy with good stuff and convert him into a reliever because he gets beat up after getting rushed through the minors. Fulmer gives up far, far more walks than Covey. They were both terrible for different reasons.
