fathom

of course Yoan gets the first truly bad ump call

oh yeah, Collins can't hit LHP either

tough play, but he needs to get rid of his mask quicker. Twice tonight he seemed slow to go after it.

Yeah, but Calhoun can't hit lefties. Either you get a good matchup against him or you force Texas to PH for him already in the 6th inning.

Well that was pointless to let him face Calhoun

He's not a major leaguer

Is that like 11 of last 12 batters have reached off of him?

Cordell probably stays on the roster until next Thursday, as Sox have 3 straight games vs LHP at Boston

going as expected

Nice pitch! Would love to see them have Bummer go 2 innings.

This would be his last inning for me, but I know there's like a 5% chance of that happening.

I remember being told a month before it was announced that it was a done deal to the Cubs. Could have been #scoopcity for me

well yeah, he hasn't adjusted to the new style of launch mode in baseball. It's similar to how the Bulls tried to adopt a slow style and didn't utilize the 3 point shot.

Best sequence in weeks for Lopez

Yep, you've seen a lot of the same at bats I've seen him have in the minors. I just want him to swing if it's close with 2 strikes, as too often he resembled Yoan from last year.

He took an ungodly number of called 3rd strikes in the minors

his swing is just so amazingly long

As long as he swings

nice swing, hard contact

He doesn't admire the grounders, he just doesn't get out of the box quickly when he hits it to the left side. On pitches he's leaning over and hits to the right side, he flies down the line.

Yep, made good pitches to Mazara. I feel like Bummer could give two good innings against this lineup tonight.

110 pitches for Cease

Oh look, another hanger

Nice cheap hit for Eloy

Nice catch, crappy AB
