Now he's just 15 percentile. I wonder if Vaughn would have any shot winning one of those giant sausage races they have in Milwaukee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimizing his batted ball mix even a little bit will cause him to tap into more power. I think the Sox rushing him really hindered his development in terms of plate discipline and power.

baseball_gal_aly Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) This season has 2007-like disaster written all over it. Hopefully it's enough to get Hahn fired finally. Edited April 10, 2023 by baseballgalaly 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be more ok with the Crochet pick if they wouldn't have rushed him to the pen and actually let him start in the minors, but Burger/Madrigal/Vaughn during the tank years were terrible picks.

It's still too early to declare the AV pick a mistake. If you could use a time machine to select Corbin Carroll, sure, but he wasn't in the mix for teams that high in the draft.

I like how Soxtalk has decided a guy in the top 10% hard hit rate last year in his first full big league season, that currently has an OPS+ of 131 and isn't in the field today is a terrible pick and player.

Sure, because you don’t waste that high of a pick of college 1B. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
