Um that's precisely why they took him out. 2 hours ago, chw42 said: We took Lance Lynn out for this? 2 hours ago, Vulture said: Why is Lynn out of the game?? see below 2 hours ago, soxfan49 said: What the fuck has happened to Bummer? Why the fuck did this dildo take Lynn out? see below . Not knowing baseball would make you the dildo. 2 hours ago, chw42 said: They let Keuchel throw 90+ but didn't let Lynn throw more than 82? Makes no sense. Yes it does. See below. 2 hours ago, harkness99 said: TLR doing dumb shit like usual... Making uninformed comments , see below. 2 hours ago, StrangeSox said: What on earth was the thought behind pulling Lynn for this trash 2 hours ago, ShoeLessRob said: No reason to take Lynn out of the game unless he was hurting. Dude was dealing, coulda pitched the entire game Yes there was. See below 2 hours ago, Dick Allen said: I wonder if Lynn has that same injury he had earlier. He seemed to be trying to stretch it out a few times his last inning. Hey one guy has a thought other than TLR is an idiot. 2 hours ago, mharkins said: Unless Lynn is hurt, there is no reasonable rationale for pulling him after only 82 pitches. Lance Lynn is a workhorse who routinely works deep in his starts. Yeah except see below. 2 hours ago, hankchifan said: Only makes sense when TLR is the Manager. Yes it does , he did the right thing . See below 2 hours ago, hankchifan said: And TLR as well. Bummer should have never been in the game. Taking Lynn out was inexplicable. Also bringing in a reliever that walks two guys with a 3 run lead..sucks. And once again see below. 1 hour ago, caulfield12 said: The only thing that makes sense with Lynn at 82 pitches is you have to pretty confident your bullpen can hold down the worst team in baseball so that you can keep Lynn as fresh as possible for the second half and postseason. When can you go to them, if not a 3-0 lead against the Orioles...? 1 hour ago, Chick Mercedes said: Pulling the starter after 82 pitches while he is doing work in a short game sort of means he was predetermined to be pulled right? It isn’t like game managing. Pretty much ! 1 hour ago, harkness99 said: made zero sense with another double header coming up... And again another DH coming up is precisely why it makes sense. See below 1 hour ago, hankchifan said: A more likely explanation is that it was another inexplicable TLR move. Um noo. See below 1 hour ago, hankchifan said: Would not have been necessary if they let Lynn finish the game. Most of the comments fall into the Wtf is TLR doing category and only a few actually decided to think a little bit. It was less than a month ago that Lynn was put on the Il for a strained right trapezius which he needs to pitch effectively since he's RH In his last 3 games he has made 111, 109 and 104 pitches. Now look at our pitching schedule recently and upcoming. 5/24 Lynn 5/25 Giolito 5/26 Rodon 5/27 Cease 5/28 Rained out 5/29 DH Keuchel and Lynn 5/30 Giolito (every 5th day) 5/31 DH Rodon (every 5th day ) and ? Kopech ? 6/1 Cease (every 5th day ) 6/2 This is where we have a problem . For both Keuchel and Lynn this would be an every 4th day start. So one of them may be pitching on short rest unless the Sox want to give Lopez or someone else a start. The likely candidate is Lynn which would explain why he was taken out after 82 pitches. Also it could be his trapezius was acting up again. Please try to remember the manager has other things to think about besides the current game situation unlike most of you. 2 Double headers in 3 days tends to screw up your starting pitching rotation.
