April 24, 20196 yr Seems wrong to care at all after 2 weeks. I get we are all starving Sox fans but there are only 3 possible outcomes after 2 weeks: A good start An average start A bad start They all have one thing in common- they are starts. Even extremes at either end are suspect (Robert & Rutherford)

I just believe he’s going to have to make some changes to his swing in order to be a more effective hitter the higher up the ranks he goes. From people who have seen him this year, he hasn’t made an adjustment yet. It's impossible to say for sure, but I think he will benefit significantly from the juiced ball. Guys with fringey power seem to benefit from it the most.
April 24, 20196 yr im not so worried about Madrigal, im more worried about how this inept organization is going to develop him

At this early point, it's not that the Sox can't haven't developed him, it's that all the fears about his lack of power were correct. Still incredibly early to write him off but right now he's looking like a utility guy and another shitty high 1st rounder.

April 24, 20196 yr Just now, fathom said: How many balls actually hit to the left side of the field? Not an easily available split.
