JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 But seriously, if the playoffs started tomorrow I’d be starting McCann over Grandal at catcher (assuming both healthy). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will never sign to be a backup nor should he. Sox should move him before the deadline to get some value from him before he leaves for nothing.

Tnetennba Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Sox scratch 3 across and make Turnbull throw 37 pitches in the 1st. Let’s hope that long inning hasn’t cooled Gio off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to him, ask if he'd sign an extension if he were guaranteed a rotational role. If not, the way to maximize his value is trade him, unless you believe the Sox can win the World Series this year. I'm not saying they should trade him, just that this would be the logic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTruth05 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Gio's pitch sequence with McCann is just better Edited August 20, 2020 by TheTruth05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also hear a lot about Grandal’s framing skills but it seems like our pitchers have performed better with McCann catching than Grandal. I don’t know how to look up CERA but that’s my sense at least.

EloyJenkins Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I know its the Tigers...but the lineup is starting to have some consistency in order and results and the Starting staff has most definitely started finding a groove. This looks like a playoff team right now. This weekend will really be a good eye test. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything is possible. McCann has been the Sox best hitter behind Anderson. They will need him to make the playoffs and going into the playoffs. Shoot for the world series if you are making the playoffs. Edited August 20, 2020 by Yearnin' for Yermin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
