It helps that both are lefties, but there just aren't that many successful pitchers with that low-end velo. That said, at this point the sox could just use dylan axelrod type depth and even if they are that that's useful too. The struggles of stephens, adams, guerrero, etc to be remotely usable really sucks on that front.

Edit: Because Buehrle was so absurdly unique. If you never read this Grantland piece on Buehrle, read it. The Curious Case of Mark Buehrle

The other part with kubat though is there are a lot of reasons to discount him that people may be missing on the thing that may actually make him effective so I do just want to see him keep up. Junior Guerra type situation where maybe we get a couple useful years as a starter for nothing.

May 13, 20196 yr Sosa's multi game hit streak ended today (only picked up 1 hit). So now I'll say he has a 5 game hitting streak now.

May 14, 20196 yr WALKER BOMB. Despite his average, he has quietly been very good at W-S. Has 11 BBs and only 6 K's down there.
May 14, 20196 yr Man, Rutherford just looks like a baseball player to me, if that makes sense. I thought the same thing about Ryan Sweeney though. ? Edited May 14, 20196 yr by TaylorStSox
