I think first and foremost the staff isn't as good as they performe early on. Secondly, as Jester and I have said the roof is playing a factor, lot of balls are sailing out that last year weren't. With that being said the pitchers still need to do a better job and try to keep the ball down in the zone.

They are inconsistent for sure. But, Showtime, the Sox management claims that roof doesn't affect the ball. You obviously disgree.

Well thats the only explanation I can see for all these fly balls just floating out of here. I mean how many times have we seen mutli homer games from both teams and it leaves you shaking your head?

Well, they've said they we're told by the firm doing the work that it wouldn't have an effect. I'm not an expert, but lowering the roof has a big effect on the wind and how it helps or hurts the ball.

 

Either way the staff needs to get it in gear.

I am not disagreeing with you at all. I have to wonder too. It is a bit ridiculous when you hear the stat that the Sox hurlers are second in most homers allowed.
