He might beat out Legend

The hitters stopped fouling him off. That bothered me as far as what he could get away with in velocity. I think they stopped swinging at so many pitches

Well, have to say despite the concerns about velocity, Kopech gave us hope today bottom line.

Eloy not out for the year!

Guys had like 7-8 pro seasons now? Cmon

This is hella bad sign for the season. Low velo Ko

Kopech loss of velo allows all these guys to foul him off

fair enough, but the Sox are abysmal in getting value for prospect trades for old dudes. These guys should learn to just say no, and try other avenues.

not sure if serious

Trading to Oakland our newest prospects for now older ex-Sox prospects sounds vaguely familiar. Could work out well this time.

If they’re now asking for Vaughn, they are gonna ask for Vera or Montgomery if the Sox say no

Has he ever done anything like this before?

I think the Sox delivered a Larussa model then. 5 or 6 starters, and platoon everything else with people that nominally all can play musical chairs. This is fine.

What a stupid approach for TLR. Of course the season is a marathon, but let us get out of the first week guy.

Perhaps Leury brain cramp yesterday earned some bench

This is alluding to the penalty for blowing off Rodon.

Kopech hair is too long. Oh noes. Harrison beard as well. The humanity.

Looks like Babe Ruth rounding the bases

Been saying it. Not signing him will cost more than signing him. In money and prospects traded to fill the hole

I am a fan of Freddie Mercury

Can Micker come up for a cup of coffee?

TLR not using great judgment.

Bring him up at Charlotte as a starter

As a starter too.
