Quero's pop time and pickoffs got a lot of attention. Teel has really improved through the year and has that captain of the team infectious personality/leadership.

Yeah, and so you could rotate Korey Lee with Quero? Korey Lee hasn't exactly been a world beater in AAA this year. I agree it's crazy to move Teel off catcher for him.

I think it would be crazy to move him to 1b. He's a better framer, but his blocking, etc. needs work. Quero is one of 3 catchers with 0 passed balls in 400+ innings behind the plate (Raleigh, Dingler). He has a .998 fielding percentage which is also top 3. Teel has 5 passed balls in fewer innings, and a lower fielding percentage (.991). I also prefer Quero's work with pitchers, but some of that is biased because I've seen much more of it since he's been in the system longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomtom Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Is it just coincidence that Shane Smith pitches his best game with Korey Lee calling the game from behind the plate? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was Sosa trade talk on the Future Sox podcast by James Fox. Just idle speculation though like a 3 for 1 trade to get a serious legit LH Outfielder or something. I just remember Sosa , a Starting pitcher and relief pitcher mentioned for 1 guy. Cant remember if any name was mentioned for the return piece.

Probably. Smith's been pitching a lot better lately since his IL stint. Plus he pitched great early in the season without Lee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably. He pitched well to Thaiss, so there could be something to a "vet" being good for him, but he's also just made some tweaks that have resulted in overall improvement recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Autumn Dreamin Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 It's actually very cool that Luis can go 0-4 and it's not a death knell for the offense. Also stole a rest day for Colson, Tauch, and Teel, and only used two arms to boot. Good stuff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the highlights, it sure looks like he had a sno-cone hit the ground, and the ball bounced deeper into his mitt. Beautiful play, tho.

caulfield12 Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Raleigh with 51st fifty homer season. Barry Bonds only did it once...73 homer "record setter" in 2001. Maybe 1600 Penn can rehabilitate him like Rose and Clemens... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
