As a heads up, I am in Charlotte covering the Knights tonight. Check out the FutureSox twitter machine for observations and games notes

Delmonico, Coats and Viciedo with HR's.

 

Winston cancelled due to rain according to MiLB.

An awful start for Montas. He needs to be trade bait this offseason.

Lucky you!

 

I'm not on twitter so forgive me if you've covered this but any idea if Marin's velocity has increased since his move to the pen? Marin looks like a realistic option for the Sox pen in 2016.

why... b/c of 1 lousy start.

Because I believe there is a very slim chance he can be a starter

excellent opinion. the sad thing, i totally agree with you. this yr trying to stretch his arm, just got it stronger for the closer / relief role.

 

i am still questioning on his command.

 

nice post.

But could he become like a Wade Davis type out of the bullpen?

Matt, what do you think about Connor Walsh? Interesting peripherals as a reliever, but doesn't always have the results.

If Montas and Micah gets you a long-term starting position player then sure. If not, I wouldn't mind seeing Jones, Montas, and Robertson at the back end of the bullpen. Still a lot of people who think Montas can start though.

He was throwing 89-91 in his outing but was very effective (3 K's in 1.1 perfect innings). With Marin I think his location and ability to change speeds is what makes him so difficult to hit. He works quickly and has excellent mound presence.

Good to hear and thank you for the reply. Hopefully Marin gets a shot in ST and runs with it.

Gracious, Kanny has lost 13/14
