chitownsportsfan Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 (edited) There are so many parallels to the Twins' 2021 campaign here on this board and on the field for the Sox in 2022. Literally the exact same comments are being posted here as on the Twins board last year this time. Granted they were further under .500 but the run differential and overall performance was similar. Sometimes a bunch of guys just get hurt and/or have shit years at the same time. Sometimes you have absolutely no depth to weather the storm. This is a bad team and wishcasting career slash lines on the lineup at this point (or health) is a fool's errand.

KrankinSox Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Harrison can't catch up to 94 MPH down the pipe on a 3-1 pitch. He's so cooked. Anyway, credit to him for drawing the walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were willing to pay up for Wheeler so that's proof to me they're willing to break from precedent for the right pitcher. I still think it's possible Lucas ends up signing an extension here for a bit more than what Berrios (7 years 131M) got from Toronto. But I understand I'm in the extreme minority in believing that's a possibility. I think he's a guy the Sox will do everything possible to keep, but I understand why everyone on here is very cynical about that possibility. Expand I thought an extension was a possibility until that arbitration in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
