reiks12 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Eloy got us on the board, 2-0. Also I cant tell if Moncada went against the shift with that hit on purpose, or if he just got lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackDoorBreach Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I'm so happy he got to 30. That is a great benchmark for him, especially with how much time he missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Way to go Eloy! Also, Lopez doesn’t look right. Fastball at 92 to start and just lollypopping his curve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GermanSoxFan Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 I sure hope the Sox sign another starter and let Lopez compete for the #5 spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a great benchmark for him, especially with how much time he missed. And that HR wass probably the one he has pulled the most all season. Usually they are to left center when he pulls it which I don't even really count as pulled. That one was to straightaway left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he just hits the ball where it's pitched and doesn't try to do too much except make solid contact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted September 22, 2019 Author Share Posted September 22, 2019 Nice piece of hitting by Mendick. Didn't let that bad strike 2 call that put him in the hole 0-2 affect him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean two starters? They’re obviously going to add at least one guy this offseason. Adding two would be prudent as Lopez should probably move the pen long-term.

But Lopez shouldn’t be just handed a rotation spot and instead compete with a buy low candidate like Wacha or Archer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Lopez's stuff is still good enough to keep throwing him out there as a 5th day. When he's on, he's pretty devastating. He just can't find consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think an org the Astros would quickly turn him into a solid #3 type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
