This guy doesn't throw hard. I think we'll eventually get to him.

Yeah position players going isn't so bad, but the fact that we probably can't use Rodon or Lynn until the 2nd series of the 2nd half is pretty dumb.

Weirdly enough we really haven't done much against the Orioles' starters (probably the worst group in baseball right now) in our 5 games against them this season. Most of the damage is coming against their bullpen.

Can they wrap him in bubble wrap out there?

Foster just threw a cutter. I hope he's working on another consistent pitch, cause he really needs it to succeed.

Wow Vaughn got out against a position player. Trade him for Frazier.

Position player pitching

Nice.

Love the Leury chants

We torched this guy so hard he got DFA'd by the Twins. Now he's on another team and we're torching him again.

Launch Engel!

They ruled it a throwing error.

I would start Kopech in the postseason. I trust him way more than Cease or Keuchel.

He'd have Bauer like spin rates if he used whatever Bauer used.

As long as he can pitch on Sunday it's all good.

I'm guessing this was a pre determined appearance. This is also the best he has looked since he came off the IL. He's out there throwing 99 with late movement.

If Cleveland somehow ends up winning some games after the ASB and the Sox hang around .500 for July, they still have a shot given just how tough the Sox' schedule is in mid August. We go through a similar tough stretch that they have after the ASB in July. Sure we might have Eloy and Robert back by then, but they aren't certain to contribute and produce right away. I still think the Sox will win the division, there's a reason we have the highest playoff probability in baseball right now. But I'd rather not sweat it out in August and September when you can put a team like Cleveland away for good in July.

AV just missed it.

Yeah and the Twins had a 60% chance to start the year. Where are they now 3 months later? A lot can change in a 6 month baseball season.

Indians' schedule is really tough after the ASB. They play 4 contenders right off the bat. They won't have Bieber or Civale back until maybe August. If the Sox just play about .500 ball in July we could be up 10+ games come August. It looks great on paper, but we know that's not how it always works out, especially with the injuries we've had this year.

We can't let his option vest. If he gets 320 innings this year and next year we gotta pay him for 2023. I say take him out.

They should have won yesterday. They gave up a go-ahead homer to a catcher hitting .145. Just sad.

Royals just wasted a leadoff double off Karinchak.

Seby's got a hit!

It seemed like he was in more trouble today than his Detroit start, but he made the pitches to get out of it today.
