At this time last year Rodon was throwing 90 MPH. At this point I'm just kind of convinced that he broke down last year cause it had been forever since he threw that many innings. I don't know how he'll take throwing 170+ innings and having to pitch in the postseason though.

His expected stats are also pretty good. Even better than his DIPS numbers. I wouldn't mind getting him, but he's gonna cost a decent amount. I feel like anybody that's not a pure rental will cost a lot prospect-wise if the Castillo trade is any indicator of where the market is.

Did you also change your Twitter name to @Gallo2CWS?

I want the Sox to win badly. It's clear they're not gonna fire TLR this year so we might as well try to do something instead of laying down and rolling over. I just don't want Hahn to think like this team has a chance at an actual championship and overpay for a SP.

lmao what is wrong with you? Try adding something to the discussion next time instead of trolling.

Garcia is worth twice the amount of WAR Graveman has produced for about 1/3 of the salary. He's actually produced more than Kelly and Graveman combined this year.

This might be the first time we've been this close to the Twins since May. Also the Padres got Luis Garcia for 2 years and $7 million. He's throwing 101 MPH sinkers. That's a way better investment than Kelly or Graveman.

This was the 1st home series win for the Sox since June 22nd.

Manaea has been pitching like crap, the Padres are gonna need a few more runs to win that one.

It wasn't a pretty 2 wins, but with the team kinda struggling offensively, you'll gladly take 2 out of 3. Especially at home, where they've been god awful this year.

Stop it. You just gave Harold a giant erection.

Alright we'll take that call blue.

Don't throw inside fastballs to Laureano.

This team has been better in close games this year. That was one of the things we sucked at last year. A lot of it was cause of the 8th inning issues and TLR being a bad manager. Unfortunately the offense just hasn't been very good and we play a ton of these close games.

WTP

Shoulda been a walk but the ump gave a gigantic plate to Selman.

Unless we score a bunch here, Liam is probably gonna pitch and not be available tomorrow. That's the biggest problem with this team. Every game they're up in is close so they need their best relievers to pitch nearly everyday. It's hard to string together more than 2-3 wins that way.

Nice play by Josh.

Great effort but just late.

What if he meant to throw it at the 3rd base ump who he bumped into on Friday night?

Righties hitting .280 against Graveman...that's really not good for an 8th inning reliever.

KC is always a pain in the ass to play. Outside of 2020, we haven't really played them all that well.

I think his ERA would be like 1.8. McClanahan had a bad start today so I'm not sure he's the CY favorite anymore. Verlander is probably in the lead now.

No kidding. Blackburn was god awful coming into the start yesterday and threw 5 shutout innings.

Oller had been giving up 2.5 HRs per 9 coming into this start. At least we tagged him with 2 homers.
