Not sure Kopech makes it to the 4th...Taveras notorious fastball hitter. 

And Kopech has already given up 15 stolen bases this year... sigh. 

Clevinger also has 15.  Tied for second in majors. 

Injured Thor with LAD the worst.

The book is out on Kopech. Make him throw strikes and he will beat himself with walks and a huge pitch count. He is at 86 through 4 tonight and will be lucky to finish the 5th. 

I would probably shop him at the deadline and see if you could get a contender to way over pay for him.

Begs the question, do the Sox have any books on opposing pitchers.

Teams aren't willing to pay for potential anymore with limited control. 

That said, he AND Cease consistently struggle to get to the 6the in the majority of their starts.

86 pitches for Kopech, 40 for Perez. 

Almost to the point of cheering for the Twins and Guardians, because you just know whatever Hahn does at the deadline will absolutely be the worst possible decision. 

All our guys are pretty much swinging at the first pitch.  Can anybody adjust or be coached to take a pitch here and there to work counts?  Swinging at everything is not producing results.

Hahn doesn't make decisions, he executes Jerry's decisions poorly.

They are selling regardless of what their record is or where they are in the standings. That's why Hahn said what he said Monday, saying they are sellers if they don't feel they can compete in the playoffs.

Fans aren't paying to see this garbage, so they will cut bait and payroll like they did in the offseason, and then take much bigger cuts over the next two seasons.
