Timmy U Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Schultz just gave up a 3 run shot in the Futures Game. Not worried yet, but things are not trending well at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah fastball flat with little movement and slider lacked his bite of previous years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Schultz and Smith have both regressed. Is it time to question the Sox pitching program? McDougal went to an outside pitching lab to fix his issues. I don’t think you can just assume Bannister is a genius. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 I’ll also add Iriarte is basically a NP now, Eder regressed until he was DFA, and Nastrini turned into a disaster. I’m not expecting perfection, but the track record is starting to look a little frightening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does not seem great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when Luis Alexander Basabe hit a 3 run homer in the Futures Game. 43 minutes ago, Chicago White Sox said: I did not realize McDougal went to an outside pitching lab. That does not seem great. Yeah he went to Cressey supposedly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Some teams, including Sox teams of the past, discourage or prohibit use of outside labs/coaches/etc. At minimum I'd say it's a good thing if the Sox current leadership lets guys go get external help when they want it. Even better if it works when it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that's how Randy Johnson was handled early. He's the guy Schultz has been compared to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 16 hours ago, fathom said: I don’t particular like how they handled Schultz last year. It was odd pushing him to AAA when he was struggling in AA. Taylor wasn't struggling in AA and skipped AAA; but he has command issues...too much over the heart of the plate. Now maybe the major league pen is the proper place to develop that, but it needs development. All of this another reason I'd rather they not use early draft capital on a pitcher.
