Look at the bright side, Giolito is gonna cost less in arbitration next year.

I complained about this start time yesterday cause I knew this team would show up flat after the game last night.

Cause he grounded out a lot yesterday.

Can't do that when Kopech is also in the rotation.

Senztela has a WHIP of near 2. I'm not sure how his ERA isn't 6.

With him the fastball has kind of been a show me pitch, especially after the sticky ban. With less to show due to lower velo, teams don't think he'll throw it later in the count and just sit on his off-speed pitches. His control on it has also been incredibly inconsistent this year.

I swear Giolito always bombs when he pitches on getaway day.

That last hit by Iglesias was on a 91 MPH fastball. Honestly Lucas has been a bit unlucky in his last 2 starts, but a lot of that is the product of the other teams just poking hits against him on his change up. His fastball isn't good enough to make them respect it so they end up sitting on his best pitch.

2 starts in a row where Lucas can't get out of the 1st with his team still in the game.

Rockies are clearly sitting on change with 2 strikes. That last swing from Rogers on the fastball said it all.

Until Gio can establish that fastball they're gonna keep sitting on the change up with 2 strikes like they did the last 2 hitters.

I guess they're sitting on the change up already.

Maybe just throw change ups until they start sitting on it.

No fastball command so far. He's gone back to his old ways.

He made Blackmon look terrible on a change up but decides to throw him a hanging slider with 2 strikes...

Guess AJ in the 3rd spot wasn't such a good idea today.

Cron has played OF in the past, so don't give him any ideas.

Looks like Hahn is gonna have to trade for a real OFer if this is a lingering issue with Robert.

Telling Gallo to stop pulling the ball might actually help him. Also, he was having one of the best years of his career before being traded to NY. He might just be one of those guys that can't handle the spotlight and pressure of NY.

Check the date

The ability to give Kopech more days between starts so we can limit his innings.

Alright I guess we gotta make it Jackie Robinson day every day from now on. It only makes sense cause we have TA.

Just wear the 83 uniforms everyday and burn the white pinstripes.

Liam in the 9th today:

Why the hell is the game at 2 tomorrow when the Sox have Thursday off and the Rockies stay at home on Thursday?
