Jason's call on that 430+ foot bomb was...a bit off.

At the same time, that ball was golfed. There is no way that anyone could reasonably have thought that was going to go that far. 

That grounder looked like in stung yoan

Moncada with 6 bombs already (and should've had 7 but was robbed.. well... got one brought back in for a double).

You guys think he's hitting 30?

I mean it came off the bat at 109.3 mph.  It was hit hard.  How about a simple "this ball is deep, this ball is hit well, this ball is OUTA HERE".  And if it's not you can just change it to "caught at the track".

He should get a standard call going for deep fly balls and HRs.

If he stays healthy, yes

Yes, he looks ready to sacrifice 15 points of OBP for 50-75 of slugging, good trade for him at this point in his career.

Yeah they need to end the experiment. Put Cordell in CF

That was a pathetic at bat.

I honestly do now. How nice would it be if him and Eloy chase each other all summer

Adam Engel is probably the worst hitter I've ever seen play so many games in MLB.

Yes, they’re taking his bat and sending it to Cooperstown.  Will not effect his ability to hit.

I liked the half ass bunt attempt.

Rodon looks sharp.

.282./348/.503 27/87 is my prediction based on his start and assuming good health. 

My god what has happened to his velocity?  This is gross

I'm sorry 90 mph meatballs are not what I'm looking for out of rodon.

The Sox will probably give up three runs today and lose.

Your what hurts?

For all the complaining, you wouldn't think Carlos Rodon is tied for 2nd in baseball in fWAR

Cooper doing his best to turn him into Buehrle

 

Can’t believe that stayed in

Rodon is at best a #3 on a contending team - if that

If he can get to 5 fWAR off a 90 mph heater by the of of 30 starts I'll be impressed.  I don't think he can.  It's just not possible, eventually nobody will even bother to swing at his slider until there are two strikes.

It's in the 30s there bros.
