He didn't look good against Yankees or Rays either

I know what his splits are, but he seems to have no prayer against lefties at the moment due to his command.

It is a huge issue going forward this year. It seems obvious he needs closing opportunities to see if he excels in that role for the Sox, but we don't know if the Sox are willing to do it. His performance this year with the team has done nothing for him to deserve it, and that's coming from someone that only wants to see him in save situations in the 9th.

Nice to have Grandal back. Top 6 in the lineup really battled every at bat.

Hernandez and Kimbrel aren't exactly improving the team

I'm fine with them not keeping in Lopez for the 7th because he didn't necessarily prepare for a long outing.

I'm going to go the opposite way and say how sexy that lineup looked with the top 6 rolling, and Lopez pitched a gem.

all 4 homers he's allowed have been on the fastball

Great comeback win!

I've never seen his velocity this low

game would have been over with one curve to Wisdom

Gotta get Hendriks ready

Good lord, his fastball is just meat

Fastball at 94

deja vu to Toronto 8th inning pitch

shows how dominant Lopez was

Oh look, another 95 mph fastball. He's messing around so much with the fastball on the Sox trying to get cute.

great sequence there, you could tell he was working on his fastball with the leadoff hitter

and you notice his velocity is down again in a non-save situation? Amazing how mental it is for some of these guys.

To see if his mechanical tweaks are still working

It's a joke, as ray ray hates using resources for bullpen guys

Sox are going to get 30+ homers from the catching spot this year

I would trade him for a reliever

Grandal must have had some amazing gummy bears during his time off

He made that look way too easy
