Great pitching both starters and pen. Really nice defense and hustle constantly. It will be really nice watching this kind of baseball on a nightly bases. They are much better defensively than we will be not to mention having a much more competent manager who is aggressive with his guys on the basepaths. I will say the Sox pen will easily be better than theirs (hell it is already). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Posted this on the minor league GT, but Durham won tonight and Charlotte lost (are now tied for the wild card spot). Will be interesting to see what Hahn does with September callups if Charlotte continues their epic collapse and miss the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most professional writers thought that improved them significantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 2 for his last 20(looked it up) with 12K, including the 2 AB tonight. Good pitching has a way of making hitters look bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
