The orioles have a bad major league lineup. The white sox have a good AAA bullpen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orioles pitching keeps hanging pitches and Sox do nothing with it Figured. I still think they have some potential with Kopech/Cease/Lopez/Giolito but I'm starting to sour on Rodon. He struggles to get through 5 innings. He's becoming the LHP version of Rich Harden. I don't really think they can count on him anymore.

He was typicaly good for 4-5 innings and 1-3 ER. He'd have games where he was outright unhittable for 5 innings, but Rodon has those too. Lots of walks, lots of pitches, an ERA around 4.00 and roughly 140 innings/160 K during a healthy-ish season for Harden Edited May 1, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GermanSoxFan Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 That inning could have been much worse. Kudos to Fry I guess, even though he was the one who pitched himself into trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 AT least only gave up a run despite all the issues the last few innings. 3.1 inning for the BP so far only 1 run. WHIP sucks but ERA decent. 7 th 8th and 9th are SOx good hitting innings this season so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 (edited) I can't believe how Moncada and Anderson can't hit the O's pitching staff. Makes me a little concerned about the remainder of the season for both players. They both struggled in Baltimore, and now at home too. I was about to gloat about Moncada to my buddies, and now I'm going to hold off for another month. Edited May 1, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
