caulfield12 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) 7 minutes ago, ChiSox59 said: Hopefully Tony tries to win today. Los Angeles Dodgers' Tyler Anderson became the first pitcher in MLB's modern era to go 7-0 with six walks or fewer in his first 10 outings. The unbeaten Anderson extended his scoreless streak to 26 innings and became the first National League pitcher with seven wins as the Dodgers defeated the New York Mets 6-1 on Friday night. “He was just once again so consistent. He made pitches when he needed to and kept guys off balance. Just another outstanding outing,” manager Dave Roberts. Anderson is with his fifth team since 2019. The 32-year-old lefty came into the season with a 34-38 career record and 4.53 ERA, but has found his stride with the Dodgers. https://mlb.nbcsports.com/2022/06/04/anderson-extends-shutout-streak-dodgers-defeat-mets-6-1/ Edited June 9, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somebody could trick TLR into believing that every opposing starter is a lefty, we'd consistently get better lineups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a rough year. This will be one of those games where the pitcher never has to deviate from his spot and mows everyone down as the entire lineup is left handed. Why did McGuire not play yesterday or today? Edited June 9, 2022 by Harry Chappas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The answer to what ails the Sox is to cut bait with half the starting team, since that isn't going to happen, I'd opt for the best possible offensive lineup and sacrifice some defense to try and right the ship at the plate. Sucks that so many guys are having terrible offensive years, but I want to get the best bats in there for the time being. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further downgrading 2 defensive positions isn't the answer to what ails the Sox. If Moncada sucks that bad on defense at 2B then there's really no room for him on this roster because he sure shouldn't be starting at 3B ahead of Burger right now. Let him play 2B until if/when he gets his hitting back on track. Then if Burger begins to falter you can always move Moncada back to 3B. If his defense is so bad at 2B that he's costing games send him down to get his act together at Charlotte. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our leading home run hitter is Abreu with 7. Burger is coming on , we need him in the lineup everyday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you leave Burger at 3B where his defense hasn't been bad, let Vaughn and Abreu alternate at 1B/DH, and keep real outfielders Pollock and Engel in the OF corners, you have a decent defensive team and the best offensive lineup you can play at this moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
