unrelated but Tatis put on the 10 day DL guess that suggests he's not gonna do he surgery?

I mean he wasnt drafted, he was signed as an intl FA because of his bat presumably, then he mostly played in the pecos league until the Sox put him in their actual minor league system

two days ago someone on reddit said he was a piece of shit person, granted it was just some rando online but that was a specific criticism to me (I didn't know there were issues about him in his past until that post in this thread)

Grandal gets a lot of days off

I almost made a rage thread about how much I hate leury garcia, just looking at him pisses me off go Sox, let's sweep these clowns

I'd imagine they're gonna try the chris sale approach, granted I don't remember him getting too many 2+ inning outings, though back then the 3 batter rule didn't exist either

that slider is filthy, unreal

KopeK

the story after tonight, assuming the Sox win is 17? straight wins vs a LH starting pitcher that's like worthy of national attention I would think, that hasn't happened in decades

espn? which game is on espn?

yeah, he's got a strong arm, dunno how accurate it is though but he looks serviceable out there

Vaughn runs better than eloy too, fuck it let him figure out the hitting ?

btw Vaughn threw that ball from the LF fence and bounced near 1B lol, might have a sore arm tomorrow

you're up 6-0, I pull Rodon after this AB, don't need him throwing 100 pitches before the 6th inning, bring in Kopech ??

agreed, doesn't look ready at all

he's just a good hitter, some guys just don't overthink their at bats Vaughn is the complete opposite so far

Rodon gonna leave his arm in Seattle, I'm scared

a big leaguer sprays that 92mph fb into RF

does Vaughn still not see how they aren't giving him hittable pitches, like everything is low and in, stop chasing dude

lmaoooo, WHAT IS HAPPENING

man is this what a DH is supposed to be like, amazing

YERMUFFIN

attaboy, might wanna get the pen warming up after the 4th tho, high pitch count and these are all high leverage

nice to face an evenly matched lineup

48 pitches through 2.1 so far
