Soxfest Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I really thought Rodon would step up this year he is not progressing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condor13 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Rodon just threw good enough to end the 1st inning with only 12 pitches and no runs and everyone is piling on him like he is pitching bad, wtf is wrong with some of you. That inning was solely the product of bad outfield play. He gave up 2 hits, got a shallow fly ball and a double play ball. If Sale did that everyone on here would be so far up Sale's ass they wouldn't know if it were night or day outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about the outfield play, but his pitches were meat. No disrespect...just observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Damnit that single was just bad luck. When you're a guy like Rodon who can K a lot of batters, but aren't K'ing any batters, you make your own luck. Teams put the ball in play way too much against Rodon, plus the amount of walks he has... this isnt bad "luck", this is a pitcher who doesn't look like a MLer.

Green Line Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I would be ok with a long rain delay. Not liking the sox mojo to start this game, maybe a couple hours will change things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Dye Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) 20 months ago Rodon was pitching in college games. Seems many here dont grasp that to move that fast into being an above average pitcher is very hard to do. The one hard hit ball so far was an out, btw.
