He doesn't take his at bats into the field. He's a rock out there.

He's been nails this year and for most of his tenure in Chicago. When he's around the plate it's hard to square him up. No complaints about Alex.

This dude has put in the work and has turned himself into an MVP level player. His work defensively is frankly mind blowing. An aging DH type is playing a gold glove 1B in addition to slugging: what more can you say? FO nailed this one and happy to be wrong.

He showed some flashes. Not great velocity sitting 92-93 (touched 95 I think a couple times) but after the 1st inning he was able to find the zone more often than not and had good command and a decent breaking ball. Change is a huge work in progress I thought. Give credit to him he really struggled with stuff and control in the 1st then buckled down, found his breaking ball and was able to shut down a bad but not horrible detroit lineup.

Great job Alex!

Why is engel not in, don't get it.

Sox haven't gotten that pitch all day and Detroit has.
