The 2 most important players in today's game for the Sox were Moncada and Jimenez. Moncada crushed two pitches that were caught and had a soft single. That's a positive. I'm done with the negative stuff. Kelvin Herrera fucking sucks and he isn't going to be here when it matters so fuck him, Manny Banuelos, Leury Garcia and every other schlep that Renteria trotted out there today
They won 2/4 against Houston with two of the Astros' better players out, and now they're going to lose 2 or 3 of 3 against the best team in the AL because the pitchers the Sox have trotted out absolutely suck ass.
It's not "dying," it's that they're simply being out-talented.
Is Zavala someone to truly monitor? I know there was a decent amount of hype around him last year but it has seemed to cool. Is there some good potential here or will be just another guy by 2021?
Yeah, besides McCann (albeit a small sample size) nothing is jumping out at me as a "good acquisition" unless we're counting Cease, Jimenez, Giolito, Robert, etc.
