Might have to add a 3 starter, too.

 

No rhythm or tempo, everything's going wrong. Zero confidence right now.

 

No doubt Carlos Rodon has all the talent in the world. Problem is he us learning to pitch in the big leagues

Lawrie's OPS is down to 717 now. Not bad, but we got fooled into thinking near All-Star year there for awhile.

 

He's just really streaky and strikes out a ton. Not dissimilar from Frazier. And he's clearly our 5th best hitter.

 

Avila takes more pitches for strikes than anyone in baseball.

Can't wait for the offseason conversation killer...well, we can't add salary because of James Shields now.

 

Fortunately, the Indians rallied from 3-0 down against Huston Street but lost in the bottom of the 9th to the Angels or we'd be 4 1/2 games out.

 

 

Another 93 MPH fastball on the first pitch for a hit. They've got to start varying his pitch patterns.

 

Morneau might just want to retire, lol.

 

 

Avila 1/13 throwing out runners entering today, now 3/15 for 20%.

I am more thinking the Sox should sell and deal off anyone with value and rebuild this thing.. Just not sure can trust the management to do a good job of that either.

 

They should fire Ventura first and see if that does anything for a few weeks.

Completely agree. I guess they can wait until Thursday before they hit the road, but if they lose today and to the Tigers, it's just time to do it.

They definitely should, but they won't. They also need to add another hitter ASAP. This team is going nowhere with a 5-6-7-8 of Lawrie-Avila-.Garcia-Shuck. Too many bad players in the lineup right now.

Rodon just with terrible body language. Frankly, doesn't seem comfortable out there, if you compare it to the way he looked pitching for NC State a couple of years ago.

 

Meanwhile, Michael Fulmer has a 2.66 ERA with the Tigers.

 

 

More issues for KC on the basepaths. 3 runners reversed or things would look far worse.
