Let him try some different sequences and gain experience. Absolutely. The only way I don't let him out is because he only threw 50 pitches his last game. I still don't like Cooper letting him sacrifice velocity. His spin rate is already elite with high velocity. I hope somebody is in Coop's ear about that since I still believe the game has passed him by. Edited August 26, 2018 by SoxAce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Should be a new pitcher for the 7th. Sox will be monitoring his innings for the rest of the year. No reason to push him now . He got 4 more starts yet to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, because he's Yoan Moncada and someone taught him that taking pitches is good in and of itself, and not that it's good in that it allows you to find your pitch and KILL it.

bmags Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 The pitcher had just walked in a bases loaded run on a WP, too, maybe he wanted pitcher to show him he could. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 We'll see if this pitch to contact philosophy works with Kopech, but this is what I was afraid of when he came up. Coop fucking with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
