Jack Parkman Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) 3 minutes ago, fathom said: Oh shut it. Are you watching his swings? He looks like you or I swinging. Pitch 3 was a perfect pitch to line to left, but he’s clueless at the plate. Have you watched the location of the pitches he's swinging at? Yeah, a few times he's watched strikes down the middle of the plate but for the most part he's had nothing to hit all season. He's just getting aced. I can count the number of pitches he's had to hit all season on two hands. Can't expect someone to hit when pitchers aren't making mistakes against them.

brijames1957 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Can't lose games when your ace throws 7 shut out innings. The Sox have to start hitting. Really need TA back in this line up. And I never want to see Lamb and Williams both starting. In fact I don't want to see them anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dumbass put a split-squad lineup on the field today and of course they can’t score. The organization should be embarrassed at the garbage they’re putting out there at so many spots.

SoxFanForever Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 This team looks like a collection of guys who don't want to be there. Are they all collectively playing like crap at the same time or is there more to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because he's a 6'6 lefty who throws in the upper 90s and is in the big leagues despite having zero junior year of college or minor league experience? Lol Just a hunch. But I guess he sucks because he gave up one hard hit ball in the stupid ass 10th inning Edited April 14, 2021 by Look at Ray Ray Run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

102605 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 We were a base hit away from being on top of the standings. Ugh. This team will find its way eventually but it has been a rough start and nobody is playing at the top of their game outside of Mercedes and Kopech.
