Jack Parkman Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think they're going into the season with Lopez and Velasquez as the depth. Idk how they're going to carry all of them as I think Lopez is out of options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They now have to move Kimbrel to keep Lopez and Ruiz on the roster, unless Lopez is being floated as a trade chip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I’m thinking in April they expand rosters to 28 or 29, so I’m not too concerned…yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lillian Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 WHIP last year was 1.50 and his career WHIP is 1.39 Why are they giving up a roster spot for such a below average pitcher? If he sees any significant innings at the Major League level, that would not bode well for the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since no one else has specifically said it, maybe Katz sees something in him that he thinks is fixable. We got the obligatory Coop will fix him comment but this should be a minor league deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are he spends most of the 2022 baseball seaon in AAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This definitely wouldn’t have been the insurance policy I selected, but oh well. Keuchel is and was always going to make 20 some starts whether you guys like it or not. I’m not sure how this prevents us from adding another starter. This is probably a $2M signing that sends Burr to AAA to start the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eminor3rd Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Good depth piece flyer. I like these types of pickups, but I fear the Sox tend to see them as reliable solutions instead of insurance policies with upside. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Def like this better if they plan to use him out the pen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
