Sox MiLB pitching depth is ridiculously bad. Worst in my memory. That’s why they are 30th. Some of their position players actually have promise.

CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Adolis Garcia ends the inning by sliding by the 2nd base bag on an attempted steal. Needed a bigger base. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I wonder if he would be better in the 9th inning of a spring training game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 5 straight have reached. Please just fix this and pay some money for a team to take him. There is no way he can be on this roster to start the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I feel like the general consensus among other baseball fans is that Kimbrel's struggles were a combination of regression to the mean and him not pitching the 9th inning. What they didn't know is that his mechanics were fucked with us and his stuff and control were nowhere near what they were when he was with the Cubs. The fact that he's not even throwing 95 now means he's probably cooked. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he's the last pitcher to realize pitchers can start using it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
