Don’t forget they leaked they were interested in him two offseasons ago after the Clevinger accusations came out. This makes zero sense though. Lopez had one good season with the bat in 2021, that is all. Only the Sox would be stupid enough to view Lopez as a starter. It’s embarrassing. And does he truly move the needle at all on the fan base, just because he is from Naperville? You have to still be a good player for fans to care about you, which Lopez is not.

nrockway Posted May 7, 2024 Share Posted May 7, 2024 4 runs in 2 innings on 54 pitches. 4 walks, 0 strikeouts. Terrific work, Clev. Maybe 5 days from now he can lower his ERA to a single digit. That would be something. Or he gets cut, that would be fine too. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see it but a balk can be called with no runners on base. Rule 6.02(a)(5) Comment: A quick pitch is an illegal pitch. Umpires will judge a quick pitch as one delivered before the batter is reasonably set in the batter's box. With runners on base the penalty is a balk; with no runners on base, it is a ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say even combined they are like .5 leadoff hitters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
