July 12, 201510 yr 2 for 4 for Alvarez with 2 doubles. However he made 2 throwing errors. He has 25 this year. YIKES. I'm guessing he just doesn't have anything close to the reps that other guys have to excel fundamentally. Matt Cooper with the elusive 4 K inning.
July 12, 201510 yr QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jul 12, 2015 -> 08:58 AM) Uh oh, there was a Noesi siting last night for 2 innings, lol. And 2 good ones. The Cooper project lives!
July 12, 201510 yr http://www.chicagonow.com/future-sox/2015/...nd-the-knights/ Recap posted. Kevan Smith perfect at the plate, Thompson continues to impress. Signs of life from Cleuluis Rondon.
July 13, 201510 yr QUOTE (BlackSox13 @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 08:16 PM) Trayce Thompson 2-3 2B Megan Smith 3-3 Drabek looking good through 6 WTF?

The pitchers at Kanny have had nothing but great things to say on Alvarez' play. He makes some spectacular ones and has the quickness and range, but also boots some simple stuff. So yes, I'd agree he needs reps more than anything. But the tools are there.

July 13, 201510 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 11:42 AM) So what to make of Drabek? Stuff-wise, multiple scouts I've seen quoted were not impressed.
July 13, 201510 yr QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 07:53 PM) Stuff-wise, multiple scouts I've seen quoted were not impressed. wow..... many thanks for the snippet.
July 13, 201510 yr QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 02:53 PM) Stuff-wise, multiple scouts I've seen quoted were not impressed. Good to know. Have not been excited by him since his ML stint, but he has been successful that's for sure. Sounds like he's not supplanting Carroll's role anytime soon.

July 13, 201510 yr QUOTE (kevo880 @ Jul 13, 2015 -> 09:25 PM) Santiago? He's an All-Star this season. well, i know this is on me, the state of sox system, i want all the success for players..... this org needs them. maybe i am being unrealistic.

"it like he is better than most minor leaguers but not good enuf for the majors. pretty much like hector." This line makes it sound like Hector isn't good enough to be in the majors. I was simply pointing out he is an All-Star this season...Maybe you are being unrealistic if you don't think Hector is good enough to be in the big leagues.

July 14, 201510 yr QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 14, 2015 -> 11:14 AM) yeah ... that will be a better description. Lol alright man I have to dig a little further into this then...Why exactly is an all-star quality pitcher, in the American League no less, not even good enough to be a big leaguer in your eyes?

Hector Santiago was traded in the big 3 team deal that sent Adam Eaton to the White Sox.
