I think they'll carry 12 pitchers, and they will be Lynn/Rodon/Giolito/Cease starting and then Hendriks/Kimbrel/Kopech/Tepera/Lopez in RH relief and Crochet/Bummer/Keuchel in LH relief. For me Ruiz lines up 2nd behind Burr as next in line in case of injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely don't look like a championship team since the break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomtom Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Maybe an embarrassing loss like this is the kick in the pants this team needs. Stop listening to the media saying how good you are. Right now there are several teams in the AL alone that are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck outta here Hey ol' fuckhead, now you know when you can use this stiff: when you're punting or you're up or down 8 runs. Dude fucking sucks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjusttyped Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 The team struggling to this extent without TA highlights how important it is they add quality SS depth this off-season. One of the premium SS that are free agents this winter will end up getting squeezed out and sign a 1 year deal like Semien did with the Jays. The Sox need to be all over that as an upgrade over Cesar and depth addition behind TA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically I recall TLR's lineup being pretty regular after moving Fisk up in the lineup early in the season. Result: 99 wins (ok maybe they weren't rested enough by the time the played Baltimore in the ALCS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Team is now 1-5 in games TA hasn't played in since the ASB. We've scored a grand total of 13 runs in those 6 games. The lone win was mostly because Berrios got tired and completely lost it in the 7th inning of a double header.

wegner Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Just checked the score....I don't understand? Gordon Beckham said yesterday that they were set up great for today's game. Oh well he also said these games don't really matter so I guess I need to be ok with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
