May 12, 200322 yr Adkins had another rough outing Sunday for Charlotte. Was he scouted personally by KW?
May 12, 200322 yr Jon Adkins wasn't doing much in the Oakland organization which is reknown for developing pitchers. Why would anything think that we could do better with him?

Alot of posters on this board were pretty high on Adkins the day of the trade and still are to this day. I'm not nor have I ever been one of them. Another deal KW got the Sox reamed in.
May 12, 200322 yr FWIW, I have heard from coaches that Adkins does have very good stuff. Obviously, one needs more than just "stuff".

May 12, 200322 yr Case in point! lol.......that makes a few guys in this org. who couldnt get by on stuff alone...........ask garland whats happening with him too......... ........
May 13, 200322 yr If Adkins were a topnotch pitching prospect, do you really think Beane would have lethim get away?
May 13, 200322 yr Since the SOX have so many guys fail in the arm dept when they reach the ML's, Adkins isn't even worth my time looking through his stats. He hasn't proven a thing until he can do it the ML's. And I think if he really had a good chance for that Beane would have kept him & fleeced KW some other way.
