At least Gio has turned it around in a big way. If we were getting more 2018 Lucas things would be very grim. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gosh this team has a pathetic make-up. Um, aside from Alonso and maybe Yolmer (who should be a platoon tbh), the lineup isn't that bad. Leury has been solid all year, Moncada is in a slump right now but we saw what he can do in April, Abreu, McCann still one of the best offensive catchers in the league, Eloy is still adjusting, we know who Anderson is now, Tilson is hot. Houston just is a really good team, and they are showing us how far the Sox have to go to get to that elite level. "Pathetic" is overkill. I would say work-in progress but still major league worthy...I like Yonder but he has zero place on this team right now. Cut the losses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Nova has it tonight and the Sox somehow pull this one out of the hat, they have a decent chance at splitting this series with Gio on the bump tomorrow.

I agree with you but didn't feel like getting jumped on by half the board. We lost the 2 games I expected to lose because our pitching situation looked kind of bleak.

soxfan49 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Nova vs Cole Besides Covey vs Verlander, has there been a bigger pitching mismatch on paper in the MLB all year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannerfan Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Why is Anderson hitting 7th? Can anyone explain the theory behind one of your best hitters with speed not hitting either 1, 2, or 3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harkness99 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 If there was a stat for swinging at pitches the farthest out of the zone.. our team owns that one. Which partially coincides with why we are perhaps the worst team in baseball the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
