Also, I don’t think anyone here ( including me ) has really properly appreciated Grich and what he’s meant for our team.

Really hope we see Castillo come out of the gate sharpe and are able to get him to throw like an ace again. We really need some starters to step up and throw like reliable frontend guys.

His stuff isn't bad; his command on the other hand.,,, But I agree with comment above - the other orgs turn the Cannons into relievers. The Sox spend their scarce personnel budget on relievers.

Jacob Misiorowski is similarly running away with the NL Cy Young at -750, with Chris Sale (+850) and Cristopher Sanchez (11-1) posing outside shots. In the AL, Cam Schlittler (-170) continues to hold a slim lead over Dylan Cease (+135), with Sonny Gray the only somewhat close contender at 28-1.

Agree, we really haven’t had a period of good consistent pitching all year which is why our longest winning streak has only been 5 games, since we are leading the league in runs scored and if we had more consistent pitching the Sox would probably be leading the division by 8 games.

Also 5 GIDP in 82 PA. Yikes

It's def an interesting area of politics with a lot of brain rot on both ends. In general development is good. There are cases where it's too much too fast, but in general without development cities would decay over time or at best stagnate. I've been part of it for the last 20 years of my life first in Brooklyn now in Seattle, it is disruptive at times, but I sure wouldn't want to live in neighborhoods going the other way. I saw Detroit, Flint, and the entire SE MI area depopulate growing up you don't want that!

If the car parked in the strip mall is a rockin’, don’t come a knockin’.

He was the first player posted here for 30.

Before the cops went a knockin?

For some unknown reason, liberals now hate zoning and love letting real estate developers do whatever they want, thinking it's like a 'progressive' point of view. Reagan and friends did a number on people's brains.

It's been about a month since this thread was posted and the Magic # went from 60 to 30 even though the Sox record since then is 13-14. . If the Sox can play just a little bit better they could wrap up the division title by mid September. The Central being terrible is helping more than the Sox performance. That being said nothing comes easy especially with the starting pitching staff being as precarious now than at any point in the season. At various times though we have got great performances when we needed them and for long stretches of time from Martin and Burke and better from Kay and Fedde. Kay has been better since he changed where he stood on the rubber. He has picked up some of the slack created by the Martin decline . He has 7 consecutive starts giving up 3 runs or less. Since the beginning of May he is 8-5 3.43 ERA and 4.25 FIP. Sox are 12-9 in the 20 games he's pitched since then covering 102.1 innings . Fedde has been pretty steady over the last few months. Since 4/24 any game in which Fedde has pitched at least 3 innings the Sox are 13-7. Burke had an incredible run even though his last 2 starts have been a struggle . Since 5/26 in 16 games covering 93 innings the Sox are 11-5 . Burke's ERA in those games is 2.81 with a 3.35 FIP, 112 K & 28 BB.

The Jay Cuda chart he posted the other day was illustrative. Sox have least starts of 5+ innings from SP but also the best winning % when SP go 5 plus. We have a good offense but a mediocre at best rotation. The bullpen honestly has been pretty fucking good since the ASB. Yea we've blown a couple but also they've locked down (like last night) a few times and given us 3-4 scoreless.

I can picture the car rocking slightly.

But they have been showing signs of fatigue since the last Boston game at Fenway, four games lost where they had a lead in the 7th inning or later. And Brazoban has been a failure to this point.

No love for #30 Magglio?

The nimbyest post of all time actually

It all depends on the pitching and what they have left in the tank.
