Think Palka's alone on the hitless wagon now.

13 swinging strikes for Gio thus far.

McCann should have scored on that

Nice Moncada. 

Stay healthy Yoan!

Man, it's 3 games, but Yoan so far is looking nice.

I like aggressive Yoyo.

Moan for Yoan.

Seems to have a great plan.  He was looking to serve that one, whereas yesterday he was looking to launch in the appropriate situations.

Moncada! New year new player!

I wish all gamethreads were this fun.

Ryan Burr is a ball of personality huh

Sadly his personality is better than his pitching

Moncada is, what, 6-11 + 2 walks with 4 runs to start the year?

Who is this team

Woo hoo that might seal my Alonso PTC but i won't care if Moncada gets another AB and hits a HR.

Engel should be replacing Palka like right now

What do you think of greg's point about all this offspeed crap? Me likey the Sox pummeling it when that's how we make so many outs. Before you know it we'll be getting fastballs. So far Alonso looks like a professional hitter (hmmmm, he's from other organizations?)

Batting .500 so can't be 6-11. 6 for 12 ?

Just over three games, you can just how professional Eloy is at the plate, after a nervous Game 1 he just looks in control. Not going to produce results every time, but I don't envision at ton of bad AB's

Is he wearing a three piece suit to the plate or something?/

Thought the same. He’s seeing the ball compared to Thursday. It’s awesome to have this guy in our lineup. And if Moncada makes the adjustments, we got two stars.

The reason I always said he was going to be so good is that he doesn't give away a lot of at bats.  With his ability to make contact and at extreme exit velocities, he has all the makings of an elite run producer.

Besides the short arm action, by far the biggest change and best change for giolito is the pace in which hes working. Actually can find rhythm this way.
