flavum Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Really like Giolito’s new delivery if he can repeat it. The arm swing thing was killing him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBWSF Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Big win. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the start of great things. This team is Playoff Bound in this 2019 season. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insp Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Team MVP thus far this season: Alonso. If the team can both dump Palka and bring back Davidson as a bullpen member/pinch hitter, then the team will be on the right track. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lip Man 1 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 The good things today: Sox actually won a game. Sox weren't swept by a 104 loss team from a year ago. It wasn't raining or snowing. Giolito looked great (who would have thought that?) Nate Jones didn't pitch so he couldn't give up runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Happy for Giolito. Not going to point to one outing as anything super meaningful, but I've been of the opinion that he'll put it together and turn into something for the Sox, so this was good to see.

The velocity was promising at the very least. We need to see more before we consider him fixed, but at least there’s reason for optimism with him now.

Look at Ray Ray Run Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 The more I watched today and this... I think this was done to prevent Lucas from flying open. That was a huge issue for Giolito when he had the arm whip motion going back - it took him off balance and caused his shoulder to fly open. This compact delivery seems to be an attempt to streamline his drive towards the plate, maintain his balance, and keep his front side closed. Today it worked, but Giolitos problem - due to changing his mechanics numerous times - will be consistency... but in theory, it should be easier to be consistent with better balance and less moving parts.

Chainsmoker Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I hope this is a new Giolito. Nice to get the first win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Giolito looked good though beyond the runs and hits. Only 1 walk, a lot of Ks, good velocity. And watching him pitch, he really seemed to know what he was doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 The back action on his delivery reminds me a little of Jon Garland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the home plate umpire DID have a generous strike zone. Hopefully we see more of good Lucas, and no more of bad Lucas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I thought it was accurate: he called the high strike and the low strike and both corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
