I remember the Royals got 2 off him that had a combined xBA under .300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 8 minutes ago, EloyJenkins said: He is healthy and hitting 100 on his fastball. He is a lock Pitched 120 IP in 2018 and 165 in 2016. Those are the only 2 times he's pitched over 100 innings. He's at 84 now without building up any arm strength for the last 2 years. I hope you're right but a lock ? That's pushing it unless his innings find a way to be limited by a bunch in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At worst we're 5 games up on the Indians at the end of the day. Go enjoy this 4th of July! Wish we could sticky posts. Sox just gave us no excuse to not enjoy the 4th doing something else lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much the difference in being the home team vs the away team when the Sox lineup has 3 regular starters in it and 1 is Eaton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomtom Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Astros up 3-2 in the 7th. Hopefully, the Sox remain 6 games up after today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradMc Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) Another MEH game from the supposed ace. The closest to ace quality currently is Lynn. Hopefully, the next ownership group will go out and get a real one. Edited July 4, 2021 by GradMc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 The lack of starting position players are significant, but so are the runs allowed the past few weeks.
