EloyJenkins Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Cease has calmed down. much needed. If the Sox can't score 2 off Ohtani, then they don't deserve to win the game, simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Just now, maloney.adam said: Why? With the lack of starting pitching depth, no way to tell how long you can go with these 5 before having to go down to some questionable minor leaguers. Sox have a soft schedule to start and they need to pad their win totals. Much easier to trade a few months from now if there are injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super lucky to have only allowed two runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cease needs to suck it up here and get through 5 to not burn the bullpen beyond the heavy use they’ve already endured, with no off day and late night travel to Seattle.

The longer you go without them, the better. It's not even like two players being out right now is an abnormal amount. You have to build teams with depth. More times than not, you're going to be missing at least 1 key player at a given time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have some good points there but I wouldn’t take too much stock into what’s going on right now. The West Coast has always been a thorn in our side.

We are back to the old format. You either win the division or you are one of two wild card teams. Last year's sox team misses the playoffs if we followed that format. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
