Capn12 1,492 Posted May 8 Dallas Keuchel with a QS and a win. That is a sentence I was pretty sure I wouldn't be typing out, today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caulfield12 4,084 Posted May 8 McGuire is really making a massive difference behind the plate...starting to think we can overlook his offense if they can overcome Sheets Pollock Harrison and Leury overplaying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheFutureIsNear 353 Posted May 8 6 straight without scoring more than 4 runs in any game…wonder how many times that’s happened? Not that I’m complaining Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaliSoxFanViaSWside 3,630 Posted May 8 I think I read Keuchel is "guaranteed" to give up 5 runs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ultimately all that matters is winning rings, though, and if the Hall of Famer wins a ring with the Sox that would be huge for his legacy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That said, Katz should get a bigger extension than Leury if he keeps this up with VV and the "expendables" bullpen. My god, Foster suddenly looks like he could be a quasi-closer.
