The fact that so many of those 120 didnt even qualify for that stat means they got what they wanted. 63 out of 120 1-4 starters couldn't even qualify ? Seems pretty odd or just reinforces the fact there were very few innings eaters they could've got for just a year. Rightly or wrongly that's the way they wanted to go. Dude, Hahn traded a prospect for Nova and his $9 million, he has looked terrible, he is looking like a T-ball stand tonight, and has an ERA around 8 and a half. How can you possibly be defending the move still? It was bad. Nova may not even make it through the season still on the team. No one wants an innings-eater with an ERA of 8.50. Why not just start Covey at that point? Edited May 2, 2019 by Harper2Sox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova has a 9 ERA with no upside. Stephens can't do much worse and could surprise. It's a tank year anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time will tell if he has some positive regression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's what Hahn wanted, he's an even worse GM than I already think. The truth is, he chose poorly with Nova. Just like he did with Yonder Alonso, Jon Jay, and Ervin Santana. He spent around $22+ million on crap. Edited May 2, 2019 by Harper2Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is no bueno Covey definitely has better stuff than both Nova and Santana. Covey is worth another shot if they had/have no problem wasting starts on Santana and Nova.

He spent around $22+ million on crap. He obviously didn't want him to have an 8.5 ERA that's just silly to say. Anybody better would've cost more and been for more than a year. If you go cheaper then you get to chose maybe 2 injured guys like Miley and Pomeranz who together would ve cost just as much as Nova. Obviously they chose the healthy guy.

southsideirish71 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 high school shortstops make that play. Dip the shoulder, bury your head in the mitt and then pick up the throw. I swear to god I watch fielding guru's work with major leaguers and they get better and our guys cant even work a basic defense at times. Our development staff sucks.

OneDog847 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 It's days like today that show how far the Sox still have to go in this rebuilding process.
