wegner Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Just got home for the last out of the game. Maybe I should have watched after all. But I did enjoy a beautiful afternoon. I guess Cueto is our stopper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brijames1957 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) JC was fantastic today. 9 games left before the break. 6-3 gets you to .500. Need 3 of those 6 wins to be against the Twins. Not going to happen. Don't let today's result suck you back in. The Tigers are not a good team and that starter they sent out today isn't a Major Leaguer.

Ir's bad because Kopech's been crap lately and Giolito's been crap overall. It would be one thing if Cueto and Cease were great and the others were as good as last year. Instead they're in a tier way above the others 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember the last time they scored early and cruised the rest of the game. As I recall, it took a few innings to get to Verlander a few weeks ago.

There are plenty of games left. The Sox have lots of talent. If they stay healthy, no reason to think they can’t make the playoffs. If they make the playoffs, no reason to think they can’t win a series or two or three. Also, no reason to think any of that happens.

Stinky Stanky Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 4 hours ago, CentralChamps21 said: Cueto doesn't have the stuff to strike a bunch of people out and has good movement on all his pitches so he can pitch to contact and not get hit hard. Cease and Kopech pretty much have to strike out over a guy per inning or they'll get hit hard and that's going to take more pitches. Cease has enough command and movement to make him harder to square up. When Kopech is throwing 94-95 down the middle he is very hittable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Have to be fair and post after wins too. Nice win. The bats were back. Is Sheets getting good? New approach to all fields or what? My guy Jose nearing .300. He's a pro's pro. Still we'll all be miserable tomorrow if Detroit wins 3 of 4. Would be nice to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we hit homers at GRF we win, when we don’t, we give away home field advantage to the visitors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, Sox have one of the best starting rotations in MLB. Lack of good OF defense and lack of quality lefties have also hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
