How did Lopez lose almost 2 MPH off his fastball?

I know many of you will be shocked but Reynaldo will not be throwing a no hitter tonight

I‘d be happy if he gets through 3 innings somehow 

It may not matter in the long run, but Lopez's stuff looks lively tonight, to me at least. Just gotta throw strikes.

Netflix movies?

The real question is will he get an out today.

100% predictable. 

Oh boy. This might be a game where a hitter gets to pitch. 

Missed his spot by the whole width of the plate

Lopez is not a quality starter

This is a deadly serious, question...does Ricky KNOW we are in a playoff push here? Does Hahn have a say in rolling Reylo out here? I'm so perplexed right now.

When does this shit show end with this dude, I don’t understand why we continue to trot him out there

Last night I said Detwiler should be warming up after Lopez's first pitch. I also said he'll go 8 tonight (I meant innings but then joked that I meant 8 pitches). At 8 pitches he has given up 2 hard hit singles, so Detwiler should be up already

Wow a called strike in the zone

How many runs will be scored before Ricky gets the bullpen up? I’ll say 4

Guy is a shell of the prospect we traded for

It’s not like there are many alternatives right now

Based on Stone's comments so far, he seems to be hinting that this is Lopez's final Sox start if it's a bad one

*bob uecker voice* THANK GOD

He’s gonna leave Reylo out there to the wolves tonight with how we’ve used our pen lately

Lost in everything last night was a quote from Keuchel about Rodon possibly being a reliever 

I was thinking the same thing today- why not? Especially if Bummer doesn’t come back. And if Rodon isnt stretched out anyway to go very long, why not relief?

Call me oldschool, but I  always thought most managers like to put their best hitter in the third spot.

VeTeRaN PlAyErS DESERVE RESPECT!

At least I came into this game with low expectations. 

I'm so surprised

Well, good start.....
