Thad Bosley Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 QUOTE (Wanne @ Aug 11, 2017 -> 07:44 PM) I think he'd genuinely like working with anybody not named Hawk.... They've worked well together this year and have churned out some nice broadcasts, despite the less-than-stellar product on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Great debut with the Sox for Lopez. He looks great. Doesn't seem any doubt that he's 2-3rd starter material. He'd have to fall flat on his ass to become a reliever. The change he flashed tonight is more than enough. Hell, it looked about as good as Rodon's change for example.

Rowand44 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 ReyLo's heater and change were nasty for a while. Hung the breaking ball a decent amount and started to hang the change later in the game. But damn, he's impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
