And how they brought in extra oxygen tanks and water. Even went with folk remedies like beets/beet juice trying everything to not be affected. Has been an issue since the very first time he pitched there a decade ago, exacerbated by how hyped up he gets and the hyperventilating leading to obvious breathing issues.

Expand What is the use of many more relievers when we have a bad outfield with poor defense and no everyday lefty, and a power outage team playing at homer friendly GRF. We don’t score enough runs and most relievers are always in high leverage, close games late, situations. IMO is like placing the cart before the horse. Let’s beef up everyday position players so we can get more runs and not have to depend on relievers so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The record books say the Sox are off the schneid, some people may feel differently. Literally the only things the Sox have going for them right now are Mike Shirley and Marco Paddy.
