justBLAZE Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2012 -> 01:20 PM) Yeah, it would be nice if our 7th starter wasn't needed, so I agree, please let this be it for Axe in the rotation. Yup I agree he has no business being on this team, but I'm really not a fan of giving up games like this one and the Stewart Cubs one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 8, 2012 -> 01:20 PM) Would you throw a strike if you faced a home run hitting club with the stuff he has today? Walking them working so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 8, 2012 -> 06:20 PM) Isn't starting Axe on short rest = a bullpen day? Especially when the bullpen already has 6 other rookies? The rest of the bullpen throw 107 pitches on Wednesday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're going to be competitive with Chris Sale as a key starting pitcher, giving up a game is going to be unavoidable. It's just another hangover from being "all in" and putting him in the bullpen last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on, the guy maxes out at 90, "less than his best stuff" is 86 instead of 87 mph. Maybe he just is getting burned because he isn't all that good.
