South Side Hit Men Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 You need to warm someone up NOW. Giolito nearing 80 pitches and is lacking command with the lineup about to flip to 3rd time through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EloyJenkins Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 GIO has to get more aggressive with this bottom order. too much nibbling for his pitch count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 1 minute ago, GradMc said: And that's exactly the problem. This team is built on the almighty homer and throwing through a brick wall. The Sox need a more robust, multi-dimensional offense. Hahn has the same problem as Pace: neither has a clue how to get that done.  We are still more a collection of RH hitting talent/individuals than a cohesive team resembling what we had in 2005. Wonder if they will consider trading Moncada...which would be one of the few ways to even up the payroll down the line for Burger. No easy solutions or answers that don't involve spending a lot whereas we usually spend 50 cents on the dollar with just a few notable exceptions like Grandal and Robert. Then holding on to Abreu one year too long becomes yet another risk factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone here is blaming Lucas, just recognizing he can't do everything. The Sox have $40M + and two high 1st round draft picks invested in the bullpen. Time for them to do what they are here to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almagest Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 They can't score because the bottom of the lineup is like 0-20. Sure it hurts that the middle isn't doing as much as they should, but you can't sustain or build long rallies when you have 1/3 of the lineup doing absolutely nothing. This is why they need to go after a 2B and RF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
