In response to was he good?
1) No.
2) Maybe he’d improve, but I don’t see a compelling case. He didn’t get better over time with the Sox. https://t.co/ubCP1L5Ccq— Phenomenal Source (@SouthSideSox) October 5, 2017
And if you’d like to read the article Mr. Sox tweeted – here it is.
Ventura didn’t have that advantage, because the White Sox struggle to both develop and acquire reliable talent. Instead, Ventura’s flaws were exacerbated by the Sox’ particular shortcomings.
In that article he mentions that Ventura left his starters in. After a year of Extreme Bullpenning I think I might enjoy that. The 2018 Mets are going to lose 90 games anyway, I’d rather watch Harv tough it out than 17 relievers.
