Keuchel is gonna pitch himself off the playoff roster at this rate.
Even if he's pitching well I don't see a spot for him. Cease will be the #4 starter and he isn't ever going to pitch over Crochet or Bummer.
-
If Keuchel isn't getting the low & outside corner it'll be a long night for him

Not sure what Abreu is looking for there. You got 2 fastballs at 91, you were definitely gonna get a slider on 0-2.
He had to be sitting on slider the first 2 pitches, right? It looked like he was auto taking both of those fastballs

Non competitive AB from Jose. That was brutal. Guessed wrong on every pitch.

Might as well let Engel steal, too, if he's not tired
Especially with Jose up, definitely

Any concerns about TA's inability to pull the ball in the air are officially gone

He can take his empty batting avg to an empty team. It's a match made in heaven.
Madrigal has a higher wRC+ than Tim Anderson and until a week ago it was higher than Jose Abreu's as well. The Sox lineup is filled with hitters that fall in the ~110-120 wRC+ range and no one struggles to see why most of those guys are valuable, but for some reason with Madrigal people fixate on the lack of power when the end result for him is still a well above-average hitter.

Wes Kath's HR had a 105 exit velo, per FutureSox. That is elite raw power for a 19 year old, wow.

everybody fell asleep, wow.
If this game was 11-1 the other way it'd be a 40 page game thread, at least

It's such a deep lineup, it's scary.
Not a single guy you can relax against really.Not to get ahead of myself, but there's going to be a season when this team gets good health luck and they have one of the best team offensive seasons of all-time
-
Imagine how scary this lineup is going to be once Grandal is in there for Seby
there won't be anywhere for pitchers to relax or hide.

There's the team leader in wRC+ coming through again 😎

Where do you find a live leaderboard for fWAR?
Under split on Fangraphs select "Live-Stats Full Season"
Their leaderboards update within ~30 seconds of what happens on the field.-

If that's it for Lucas, his ERA is down to 3.81. 24th in fWAR amongst SPs.

He also barely missed a concourse HR to RF in his first PA that ended as a walk

Wes Kath 2-3 with his 1st career HR!

Maybe this should be in FutureSox only, but Wes Kath hit his 1st career HR tonight

I think it's safe to say TA can pull the ball again

Grandal-esque.
It's just insane to me that he can have such a high BABIP and be considered unlucky.
There was an article on MLB.com about this exact topic earlier in the season. Apparently, Moncada's secret sauce to high BABIPing is avoiding weak contact at a higher clip than any hitter in baseball

You know Lucas will be pushing hard to get the CG tonight

Nice to see Sox positioning finally taking that hit back up the middle away.
