TheBooneLoganEra Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Why did Grifol burn through both our lefties in game 1 of a 4 game set? Not that Bummer sitting out a game is a loss but that was a head scratcher to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Well ... that one stunk. One of the 60 you will lose no matter what? i prefer to shut up and wait for the next game while acknowledging that was a horsebleep performance. Four hits? Cmon. ... You know I'm starting to think Moncada is a huge key to this team. Cmon Moncada! Emerge!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the game on the line and lefties coming up, I have way more faith in Middleton and Kelly than either of those guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kids Can Play Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I get Giolito didn't have his best game, but my god, we let a loser pitcher have his best start ever and career high strikeouts. We had 4 hits, 0 walks, 13 K's. We are never going to get to 500 or win a division with pathetic numbers like that. Btw, Crochet has been struggling lately and maybe he should have been kept down at AAA, not only to work on stretching him out, but work with him to develop another pitch or two. Crochet has talent and potential and the Sox are clueless and ruining him. Bummer flat out sucks! When he is on the mound, he looks like a "Deer in Headlights!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think that Crochet has enough pitches -- his change is better than I remembered -- but it's going to be a lot of innings for him to get anything like command back. He should either be back in AAA getting some work, or be put into lower leverage situations for a while. Frankly, if you're looking to win today's game, Banks might be a better choice for lefty reliever than Crochet or Bummer right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They face another stiff with a sky high ERA tonight too, maybe they can actually score three runs! ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handedly was my intent, but not for those reasons. Rather their preference to face LH pitchers. @Quin- Can the game thread for today be pinned and this one archived?
