periphery831 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) 1. Keuchel 2. Giolito 3. Dunning 4. Cease 5. Kopech It's become more obvious that our hitting is post-season worthy but our pitching will be where we probably falter this season. Next season, Kopech is a huge question mark and Dunning and Cease will need to solidify their positions. Despite the promising young talent, we will probably have to get another elite pitcher. Is Bauer the guy? Edited September 5, 2020 by periphery831 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 You really think Kopech is going into the rotation after missing 2 years?? I don't think so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaroldSouthside Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I don’t think Reinsdorf will spend money this off season. The only money he may spend will be on a closer. And that’s a maybe. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel that it is more likely that the Sox will sign Stroman than Bauer. But obviously I would prefer Bauer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm putting a lot of weight on the SSS of what he looked like in March both in sides and his one time on the mound. Stuff was electric. Normal Spring Training for pitchers is 7-8 weeks. That's a reasonable amount of time to shake off rust, especially considering he'll have a normal offseason to ramp up. I can see a world where he's in the minors until June 1, but if he can't go at all as a starter, they're basically screwed. Pitchers with Kopech's stuff just don't grow on trees. Bauer's an interesting name, but he seems committed to signing a one year free agent contract every year for the rest of his career. If true, can you imagine the Sox giving up their first round pick and $18 million for a guy who has been as inconsistent in his career as Bauer? I'd be surprised.

Dominikk85 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I hope kopech comes back strong but you probably can't expect more than 120 IP or so from him in 21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 what's the inning limit on Kopech in 2021? I would hope that they have him building up that arm over the winter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we honestly see JR willing to put up with Bauer's attitude and antics? I don't. So combine that with the price tag, and Bauer is a pipe dream IMO.

The guy signed Dennis freaking Rodman for crying out loud. We had Carl headcase everett on our World Series team too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 With the way this season has gone, I think the Sox make a quick strike this winter for either Stroman or Bauer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
