Nothing says 'let the pitcher settle in' like a 1-2-3 inning.

How many bad pitches can these guys miss? AV missed a BP fastball, with a 0-1 count.

Vaughn, brother....that was 91, down the middle, my friend.

Hey, look! A pitcher with actual 'good stuff' !!

Haha, TLR said "Yeah, mid count, you're gone." What a 5th starter.

Now, back to the Keuchel BP session.

He's probably a 15 HR max guy, season to season, for sure. This season is the exception.

This is following the normal Sox script... 1-4 with RISP, 3 LOB after 1 inning

This is a pretty beefy lineup, 1-9. We can score some runs. But we have to not have the suckass DK in innings 2-9.

OK Yoan, lefty vs a not great pitcher, this is your time.

I'm just glad Keuchel is doing his part, to make sure he doesn't pitch far into this game. He is only trying to make sure he doesn't hit the innings threshold in the contract.

Sporting that even 5.00 ERA, The 18 million dollar man.

Meanwhile, in "I should be the 5th starter" land...

OK, well the whole team sucks tonight.

"Who could have seen this coming from DK, I mean, he has been on fire coming into this start!"

30+ pitches in the first inning, to the Iowa Cubs. Anyone who assists in DK's option vesting next year, should get an immediate pink slip.

"Thanks a lot Cesar, shitty defense." -Probably DK

Now, because he dropped it, the whole inning is Yasmani's fault -Probably, according to DK

"C'mon Vaughn, why aren't you positioned 10 rows deep, in left?" -Dallas Keuchel, probably.

GTFO of here, Keuchel. Good lord.

Iowa Cubs have DK deciphered, 2 hitters in

Good start

vR, Moncada probably should be in the 2 hole, agreed.

Outside of a REAL RFer, that lineup is as good as it gets.

When he actually catches the ball, Seby is a much better framer. I don't think there is any question, there. But yeah, bat sucks, passed ball machine vs left handed bat sucks, calls an ok game, but can't frame anything.
