ron883 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 People always say he needs to "focus". Does the guy have bad ADD? Is it really his focus, or is it just because throwing a high velocity fastball and breaking pitches is just really hard to do consistently? He may just not have the control.

Gio, Keuchel, Cease, Gonzales (until Rodon comes back), Dunning. Gio Gonzales looked pretty damn good his last start. Got a ton of swing and misses. He may be a little long in the tooth but he knows how to pitch and when it comes time for the playoffs he won’t be a mental case. Lopez just looks very uncomfortable out there and it takes the whole team to try and calm him down it seems like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's ever offered one, he'd be a fool not to take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 As long as Moncada stays on the field, then we can live with him banged up. Not like he utilizes his speed much anyways other than going from 2nd to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) No jokes, I wonder if the Sox have considered Yoga for moncada. Can work wonders for chronic hamstring strains. He seems to have tightness issues. He lacks the flexibility to stay loose once he uses his muscles strenuously.

I wish they'd have ILed him so he was healthy for the Twins series. They can take Pitt and KC without him. He needs to be as close to 100% as possible for the gauntlet to end the season.

You could even have a consistent split start between him and Detwiler. Gio starting going for 4-5 and then let Detwiler go a few. There is just a lot of options in the pen that we could take advantage of during that start instead of having the inconsistency from Lopez non stop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
