Sox defense f***ing sucked

Yeah, but you still have to look at how he pitches when faced with adversity.

 

I know he's pitched better of late, but he annoys the ever living f*** out of me when men are on base.

 

My wife is like "why are you always yelling at the tv when this guy pitches?"

I thought he was still pitching well with guys on base. Tons of weak contact and the Sox defense just kept letting him down.

He pitched fine with adversity. Not like they hit him hard. Hated the 3-2 pitch to Beltre that inning though

I disagree. I get they weren't exactly barreling him up but he also doesn't record outs. He just wastes pitch after pitch after pitch and then walks guys. He can't put anyone away.

 

This isn't anything new. He's a great pitcher when things go well. When he has to pitch out of the stretch, he's a completely different guy.

The problem is he has no way to get a FB past Beltre, so he tries to get cute and basically hopes for a trick K with offspeed stuff, but no conviction behind it. Then pitching out of the stretch takes a couple mph off his FB.

 

Still think Swarzak draws some interest.

Anderson should be sitting dead red against Frieri but caught in between...like he couldn't believe it was a fastball when that's pretty much all he threw.

 

 

And if Giolito and Fulmer are going to end up struggling, and we can't be sure about Rodon taking the next step...keeping Q wouldn't be the worst thing, the old he has more value to the Sox argument.

 

With Kopech, Hansen, Lopez, Dunning and Guerrero, at least two of those five need to make it. Minimum.
