This poor bullpen is going to be so gassed

Nicky No Pop

His momentum completely stopped and then he sat on the side. He could have avoided doing that, no doubt.

He made a lot of outs on the bases in the minors also

He hasn’t pitched in Schaumburg I thought.

He’s been better than I expected. He’s not getting the bat knocked out of his hands by big time fastballs. And yes, he’s the perfect 9th hitter on this team (especially once RF is upgraded). I knew the base running and defense was overrated, but it’s not like he’s bad on defense. Also, I do think anyone hoping for 12-15 homers should see it’s not going to happen. He has Juan Pierre type power, not Pedroia.

Would rather see Flores get the start and then see what Lopez can do. Disappointing that it looks like they’re giving him another start so soon.

Stoney even tweeted McCann calls a better game, blocks pitches better, etc

Nah, Stone has been taking some shots at him. That’s the kiss of death

Umpire squeezed him

I’m thinking Flores

They’ve said Gio is only stretched for 2-3 innings now.

Lopez isn’t starting it sounds like

He’s definitely in the bottom percentile in terms of strength. Hopefully he can keep his elite hit tool as pitchers adjust to him.

So he throws one ball away in Summer Camp and you come to the conclusion he is bad defensively? I guess based off Summer Camp, Cease is now an ace.

This team is a contender because the super prospects came up. Vaughn is a super prospect, end of story. Also, I think the Sox go outside the organization for a back-up catcher

People are making this way too complicated. Abreu and Vaughn will be 1B/DH next year and McCann will be elsewhere.

I think the dynamics in play have changed just a bit

The Brewers were very interested in bringing back Grandal, Fyi

Just win 5 more games. Don’t really care if they’re a 1 seed or 8 seed. Bad losses like this are fine, just can’t let it snowball.

You know how many people said that about him on the Dodgers in the postseason?

The last two innings was just horrible effort by him

Would have been close, as Cordero took his time just like some of his teammates did tonight also.

Oh come on, that game was easily the ugliest game of the year. You had bad base running, terrible defense and a player gave up a free base because he sat on the rail.

Talk about pathetic body language as well
