    What’s the rush? The clock is ticking on Eloy, Moncada, and Anderson and the young pitchers. The sooner Robert, Cease, and Madrigal could learn from playing at the highest level the better. It is the

    No, it's an easy question and the answer to it is no. If all you care about is one stat, and being below average in that one stat does not necessarily prevent one from being a productive player, then

    Vlady is someone who has naturally advanced swings so comparing anyone to him is fruitless exercise because you could spend your entire career playing and not be able to hit like him. But look at Acun

Robert HBP first AB. He has the oven mitt on for base running.

Madrigal bunts for a single.

Bryce Bush is in RF

Collins with 2 singles today so far.

Looks like one of Collins' singles was changed to an error.

Remember when you yelled at me that Eloy wouldn't get hurt just because he was playing the outfield....or that Cuonzo Martin is a good coach   :)

Cuonzo is a good coach and I said he wouldn’t die. Both were true.

He has 7 Ks in the last three games, and a 27% k-rate overall. Sox fans freak out when dudes get rushed up and totally suck, but never seem to learn to not beg for the same exact mistake in the future. What's the rush with this guy? He's 1.6 years younger than the average at WS. Let him spend his age-21 season there, his age-22 season at B'ham, and start his age-23 season at Charlotte, working towards a late season call-up in 2021. There is NO rush.

Many scouts thought he was MLB ready when we signed him in 2017 and you want him to stay in the minors until late 2021? Who cares about k-rate when the guy hits lasers every time he makes contact? What does he have to gain from that? 

Robert works an 0 - 2 count where he swung at the first 3 pitches into a walk. Encouraging at bat.

Cool. Now demote him to Kannapolis until he learns not to swing at the first 3 pitches. 

Robert now steals second with his big floppy oven mitt on.

Well, because Yoan hits the dogshit out of the ball every time he makes contact, but last year posted a .714 OPS because he struck out 33% of the time. So, uh, k-rate is a bit important, I think.

A .714 OPS from a 22 year old in MLB is bad?

And it ruined his career
