caulfield12 3,729 Posted August 28, 2021 Grandal finally over 200 at .203. Reynaldo/Keuchel controversy. Doubt TLR is going to mess with that unless Keuchel gets rocked his next two starts, as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy to me how underappreciated he is by such a large section of the fanbase. Grandal had 0.4 WAR in this game alone. Started the day at 1.7 and is now at 2.1. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Timmy U 664 Posted August 28, 2021 24 Sox outs. 10 made by Hernandez and Garcia. Pretty hard for 2 guys to make 40% of the outs in a game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
