GreenSox Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 (edited) That was just wonderful. The relievers we have, good and bad, are going to tire because the best the starters can do is go 6 and that's on a good day. Fulmer is just.....

You are absolutely correct, we still aren't good! However, are we 'better' because we are 'better', or are we 'better' because we have played a pretty weak schedule to this point? Last season, to this point we played teams like Houston, Oakland, Seattle, St. Louis. This season we have had 6+ games against the Royals, Tigers and Orioles. So, aside from seeing some individuals like Anderson, Moncada, Lopez (the last few starts) being better, I am not sure I am comfortable saying the team is better. That said, those individuals are the ones we need to get better if we are going to be competitive beginning next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 (edited) 6 minutes ago, flavum said: Rodon dealing with a blister Unsurprising. Give Carlos a break today. He did ok staying out there as long as he did. Bullpen situation would've been worse if he had been pulled an inning or two earlier. I have a feeling a few starter ERAs are going to take a beating shortly because the bullpen situation is going to force Ricky to leave them out there for the full 100-115 pitches.

Maybe the Sox can bolster the bullpen with a few upgrades. Similarly, we can't rely on the same guys to get two or three hits and put us over the top every game. We need Eloy back and Robert to come up with him. That might change the offensive dynamic in close games like this. Is DFA on that bingo card ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
