SoxFan1 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Liriano, give me 2 runs in 6 innings every time and I'll be a happy camper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Much needed win this was. With Diamond going tomorrow, I was worried that we might get swept if we didn't win tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Lariano will get better. Cooper hasn't even advised him yet. Die Detriot. Let's pick up one here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Beautiful. Hopefully Boston holds on and the Sox take the series tomorrow!!! Nice game for Liriano and clutch hitting by AJ. Nice awareness by Addy on that final out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 i will be happy when Reed starts nailing down saves without making them interesting. Loved Liriano tonite, he looked really good. AJ was nails tonite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I would not be surprised one bit if Myers is closing for the Sox down the stretch (and thats the exact reason why KW got him -- insurance). Reed is scary right now and I don't know if I can take his ninth innings in August and September haha Liriano looked filthy, If he can cut down those walks, he is gonna be a nice nice addition to this team... Still need more consistency from the offense though. They've been this way all season, but they need to get together at the right time and put more than 2 or so games between them and Detroit.

I realize he gave up a run. But he is still holding opponents to a pretty low average, is getting games closed, and is averaging a strikeout per 9. He's been nothing but solid, especially when you consider the fact he's a rookie. And he's significantly better then Myers. The only hard hit ball was Span's single (which was crushed but he's killing everyone right now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 The Tigers have bases loaded, so I can imagine the umps will feel the pressure to wait it out as long as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been consistently mediocre, especially over the course of the past 6 weeks or so. He's allowed the leadoff man to reach in what seems like 5-6 consecutive outings.

He's been consistently mediocre, especially over the course of the past 6 weeks or so. He's allowed the leadoff man to reach in what seems like 5-6 consecutive outings. He's getting the job done. He has gave up his fair share of hits, but by and large hes' been solid. And to be honest, the hits haven't been excessive or anything. His WHIP isn't bad. He's not pitching lock-down right now, but he's doing pretty good for a rookie and he's still the best option on the roster (IMO). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The margin for error isn't there. I just hope he can make some adjustments, because he is really playing with fire right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 And PK, repeat after me: "What will I do if the ball is hit to me? What will I do if the ball is hit to me? What will I do if the ball is hit to me?......" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Reed in the month of July (prior to today's game): WHIP is 1, ERA is 3.75, strikeouts to 9 is 5.6. Not sure what people's expectations are, but that isn't terrible. I realize he isn't pitching like Mariano but as a whole solid numbers (k/9 is a little low). But as a whole he is average a k per 9.

Noonskadoodle Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Nice on the day of the Danks news that Liriano goes out & pitches well. Former Twins in Liriano, Crain, & AJ all played well against their former team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
