South Side Hit Men Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) One solid takeaway is Cease has pitched well outside of the one mistake. Would be nice if he could get through 5 today. Edited September 5, 2021 by South Side Hit Men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Line Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 So basically the Sox have 1 serviceable starting pitcher (the one who is getting shelled today) and Lopez going forward. Great news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same issue as before (shoulder fatigue and soreness). In free agency he will not get anywhere near what Boras wants with his injury history.

chitownsportsfan Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 we went from an offense that would score 5-6 most nights to one that is now boom or bust. That's not a great development and it speaks to losing TA and Madrigal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can probably go with the excuse that he hadn't thrown this many innings in 3 years, but the fact that we're giving him 10 days off between starts just for him to throw 95 and then feel sore for a whole week after is not encouraging.

Dick Allen Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I would like the Sox chances a bit more if JR wasn’t so cheap and brought McCann back, let RH trade for a real RF in Jason Heyward, whose OPS is almost .600, and is only owed around $50 million. Cheapness is also the only reason Garrett Richards wasn’t signed for the rotationand LaStella isn’t at 2B instead of Hernandez. Complete fail.

chw42 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Feels like Dylan always finds his breaking stuff towards the end of his outings recently and just ends up dominating guys before he gets to 100 pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
