There is a difference between saying we need 7-8 starting pitchers and understanding the lack of reasonable depth at our AAA level as seen by Sox being forced to use stiever last year and drew Anderson. Yes, other contenders do have more organizational depth at that level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUSTgottaBELIEVE Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) Giolito, Keuchel, Lynn, Cease, Kopech, Lopez, Stiever, and Lambert is decent depth. And they’re still going to add another proven starter as well as a spring training invite or two to a vet. They can always trade for a starter in July if needed as well.

Yes, other contenders do have more organizational depth at that level. If we add a legit #4 starter, we’ll have Kopech, Stiever, & Flores waiting in the wings at AAA with Lopez in the bullpen. That’s pretty decent depth, but definitely that one additional starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonofaRoache Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hector seems to be very sensitive and said he felt bad about the Sox not getting Machado. This is not a problem, but can someone who has twitter ask him what type of player we'd get? Let him know that we will be very disappointed in him if we can't get a decent answer lol.

On paper, the best in baseball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make any sense to start him in the majors on an innings limit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
