Beware, someone making their major league debut tonight. Hoping to increase the win streak and start off the road trip on a high note.

Hope the Sox reverse that trend.

Too bad we don't have a Cy Young award winner pitching instead...

Repetoire: Fastball, Curveball, Slider

 

Fastball: Pino does not overwhelm batters with his fastball, but he does have the ability to spot it wherever he wants. His fastball sits in the mid-to-high 80s, and he uses it to set up some great off-speed stuff. While his fastball is not a putaway pitch, it does seem faster when mixed in with the rest of his arsenal.

 

Other Pitches: Pino has a great curveball and slider, and it is used to rack up strikeouts. A pitcher who does not throw that hard is not supposed to have such a great strikeout to innings pitched ratio, but Pino knows his pitches, and uses them to their full potential. He has great command over his entire arsenal, and he is only going to get better as he begins to fill out his 6’3’’ frame.

 

 

I expect both Dunn and Abreu to homer.

 

Yohan Pino is Spanish for Dylan Axelrod.

I know that someone we have never seen before is scary but that was the old Sox. This group should handle the newbie

Yeah, Abreu for one doesn't give a sh*t if he's never faced the guy.

For us out of towners; any word on a start time?

 

@scottmerkin: For those asking about possible start time, we are pretty much waiting. Had heard about a window around 9 but raining hard still
