Just thought I'd throw this topic up there to confuse folks with some baseball discussion. Moncada has had a nice first week, and it's nice to see after watching Rosebowl on Facebook all winter bitching about how awful he is. Would be nice if he can keep this up.

Maybe he has figured it out and is going to live up to his hype ….lets hope so

I like what I've seen so far this season from him.

Lemme guess...he didn't put up Babe Ruth type numbers last year and Rosebowl thinks he's a stiff.

That's pretty much been his last 6 months of commentary on Facebook's Sox page.

Rosebowl wasn't wrong, he did suck. 217 K's in 578 ABs for a .375 K average and an OPS of .715. Does anyone know if anyone has had a higher K average? Where's Roger when you need him?SoxIlliniRob wrote:cream919 wrote:Lemme guess...he didn't put up Babe Ruth type numbers last year and Rosebowl thinks he's a stiff.

That said, he was only 23 and his numbers look great this year. K rate is way down. I may have to start watching again.

Even for all those bad numbers, Moncada somehow managed a WAR of around 2 or 2.2, meaning he was somehow productive.

Speaking of Davis, he's like 0-55 so far this year, with Palka not far behind.

You DO ned to start watching again. Hit two HRs yesterday-one from each side. Nice easy looking swing-and the ball rocketed out of the park!jaywit wrote:Rosebowl wasn't wrong, he did suck. 217 K's in 578 ABs for a .375 K average and an OPS of .715.
