It took Kopech throwing a no hitter through 6 and using all our best bullpen guys to beat the Tigers on a night where they started a guy with a ERA near 7. That's a win in the standings, but a definite loss to the ego.
Pre-injury Grandal was fine last year. Not pretty to watch, but he did something nobody else on the team did (walk) and hit for power when he needed to. Unfortunately for Yaz, his power has pretty much disappeared.
Unfortunately, Grandal seems cooked, so there goes that 5 WAR he gave you last year.
MLB needs to juice the ball again if this group is ever gonna go back to being an entertaining bunch on offense.
