Sox may have more starters out though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 6-2 through the first 8 games is tied for the best start in recent franchise history. Despite us winning a lot in 2020 and 2021, we started both years playing pretty poorly.

He's running more which is what I was begging for last year.He's trying to keep Abreu from hitting into the DPs. You cant argue about BP usage very much because overall, despite the new arms like Crick, Sousa,Banks, Severino and the guys we had last year Foster , Ruiz, Lopez, Bummer, Hendriks only Bummer is looking bad while Hendriks is just a little off. Graveman is looking nails. Some have said it seems like we are shifting more , though I have no idea if its true. There's probably shifting info located somewhere online. Starting pitching has been above average. We get the daily Leury and lineup construction complaints but the results are good so far. Actually really good especially the pitching staff which is kind of shocking given the new arms and injuries. For the 1st 8 games there's not much to cry about.
