July 21, 20187 yr 44 minutes ago, fathom said: Quick math but I'm pretty sure Collins is batting .185 without Eloy in Birmingham and .284 with him there. Probably coincidental but wonder if having someone on base in front of him more often prevented fewer shifts and got him more fastballs. That or he just had a hot streak
July 21, 20187 yr Basabe with a walk and a double. Fangraphs really blew their assessment of him in their rankings.
July 21, 20187 yr Basabe with a BB and 2 RBI 2B today. Madrigal 1/3, Single, HPB, Stolen Base. Rutherford 0/2. 2 BB. Edited July 21, 20187 yr by Sox Fan In Husker Land
July 21, 20187 yr No doubt about his bat but he’s mentioned as a fringy left fielder. Getz was out criticizing his routes the other day and he looks pretty slow. Is he quick enough to play at 1st base?

July 21, 20187 yr Author Fulmer gets the win in relief. one inning , no hits or walks , 2 k. 9 pitches and seven strikes. At least a positive outing.

July 21, 20187 yr Author Holy Cow! Winston Salem wins 17-0!!!! Kubat LHP old at 25 makes his second start. 5 scoreless no walks and 10 ks. Anyone know what is up with him starting?

Is he quick enough to play at 1st base? I wonder with all the injuries he has had if he is simply not in great shape to run in the outfield? Or maybe adjusting to the different angle from RF to LF. Hard to imagine a guy who was thought at one point to be a RF now is not good in left. May show why he is not up or at least provides a reason,"There are things he needs to improve on" speech.

Getting bigger with age while being injured may mean a little extra weight also. Just guessing. Let him spend the offseason training with Robert LOL! I think he has the work ethic to be fine in left once he gets used to it.

July 21, 20187 yr Sure hope this is a dead arm or rust, as these numbers for Cease are way down. https://mobile.twitter.com/chisox2727/status/1020480771478507520

No clue
