John Silver, this is awesome. We'd love to use them on the site with your permission. Can we credit you as John Silver? The other photos would also be appreciated. We keep an updated list of the player photos we need at www.soxprospects.com/photos. No need to cut them down - I prefer the larger size so we can trim them down ourselves. Thanks! Mike |

More than welcome Mike and no real need to credit me with anything. Was happy to take the pictures while was there and chat up the players, especially the super friendly ones, like Baldwin and Watt. Baldwin actually waited for us to come out of the disabled section and was in the runway to ask us about where he could *FIND* the 1st picture I took of him (not yet sent up) and also? Where a site on the internet was to look himself up!!
Mike, the 1st-2nd year kids don't know about your site yet, I told Washington, Baldwin and Watt about it and imagine many others have -0- idea it exists.
Have a couple more of the photos you are looking for from that list and will upload them here, plus have 50 (or so) more pitching mechanics of Pimental, Pennington, Duron, Lau.. Might upload if anyone wants them, or you want them too Mike.
Cheers,
JS
Oh.. We are heading back to the Fort next month also and will work on some more of those names didn't get as well.

As everyone has said these are fantastic pics John. Thank you for sharing! Based on these Nick Duron sure has nice form on the mound. Baldwin looks like he is 10.

It was and same could be said of Lau IMO also. Neither had the velocity of Pennington, Pimentel and Espinoza. Radar was off on day 2 (Tuesday) anyway. Shame cause was really curious to see how hard both Espinoza and Pennington were throwing. Am thinking Pennington just might be sitting a bit harder than the low 90's. Yes.. It's hard to judge with just eyes, but wouldn't shock me to learn he was sitting 93-94 and touching another 1-2mph higher yesterday. |

These pics are great, thanks for sharing! Not to call you out, but I'm pretty sure the guy in the first two pictures that follow Josh Pennington is different from the guy from the last three.

Not at all and THANKS!! Thought had taken more Adam Lau mechanical pics and that's them!! Will move later on, after find the movement pics of Pennington and APPRECIATE the help, as with anyone else who sees a mistake I might have made. JS |

The key is to check the cleats. The first two in that post are Pennington. The third and fourth are Adam Lau. I think the last one is Nick Duron. |

Agreed and what was looking at, along with a certain facial feature. LOL Thanks for the help and think everything is fixed. Found and uploaded 1 more correct Penning mechanical pic and will do more later. JS |

Couple more pictures of the mechanics of Espinoza: I also ordered a Bushnell radar.. Tired of having no reference here at Lakeland and especially at Fort Myers when the stadium gun was not being used.. Won't be an issue in August, or anywhere else from now on.   |

GCL-Sox played a doubleheader yesterday (7/21) and stayed for both ends of it. Espinoza pitched 1st 4 innings of game 1 and Pennington threw 1st 2 innings of game 2. Wonderful time, but more of that on another post. Will put lots of pictures here cut down some of various pitcher's mechanics, some up close of guys don't think Soxprospects has in a Soxuniform yet (and is more than welcome to use, take, anything they want to do with btw), as I still have the large and resized ones here also should they want them.. Same thing applies.. Just ask and they are yours.. No strings..
