I hear that is a myth perpetrated by those of us who wanted them to try harder to get HFA against Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sox offense is different at home. Last thing we should want is to face McCullers on the road again imo. Yep. Maybe scratch out a win tomorrow and face the lefty game 5.

XplodingScorbord Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Good news with the delay is Yas can go both games with a late (8p) start in Houston Wednesday. He probably would have gone both anyway, but giving the man a little extra rest is good. Rest some arms too, so all hands on deck for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Frankensteiner Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I wonder if that says more about their confidence in Rodon, or their lack of confidence in a good matchup for Lynn. Hopefully the former and they saw something they liked in Rodon's bullpen session. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Cease, the velocity isn't necessarily an indicator of his stuff as his stuff is always good. With Carlos, velocity means the arm is back and if the arm is back and not fatigued he's a different animal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTruth05 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Just have a feeling Dusty is also gonna push back his starter. I really would like McCullers to start tho, he's their best and having him pitch at the rate is much better for the Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A July road game is much different than an October playoff game in front of a crowd like last night's. I want to face him in Chicago, without question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were going to have to face him to advance, so better for us if it is at home. If we can win game 4 under that scenario, I feel alot better about game 5. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause if he goes tomorrow, he can't pitch until game 3 of the ALCS at the earliest unless he goes on short rest. If he starts game 5, he also won't be able to pitch until game 3 of the ALCS. But if they somehow win with Urquidy in game 4, McCullers can start game 1 of the ALCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EloyJenkins Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I gotta think Dusty wants the safety Net of McCullers at home. Honestly if they switch that up...and pitch him tomorrow, Sox are winning this series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
