chw42 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I think over the course of a full season, Maeda would flame out. He's never really thrown a ton of innings in any year cause the Dodgers were worried about his longevity. But a 60 game season is perfect for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almagest Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Maeda looks nasty so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Yeah he looks good. Maybe we can get away with Lopez throwing just fastballs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southwest Sider Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I was really hoping they would win this series but the offense has been kinda flat lately. Get the slumps out of the way now before the playoffs start I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 At least Lopez’s mound presence has been upgraded from baby face to simi-baby face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twins are throwing probably 90 pct of the pitches this series to Yoan on the outer half. If he doesn’t walk, he’s an easy out for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Why waste a Keuchal start against Maeda. I can see why they went with Lopez here. The Sox don't stand a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Robert against the Maeda slider next inning should be.....interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan49 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 The last 11 innings offensively has been nothing short of bad. They look to have no plan up there, and they seem careless. Maybe the second time through will be the cure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, Robert's done the best against sliders this year. Mostly of the hanging variety though. His whiff rate on them is awful.

BigHurt3515 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Fastball/Changeup working well. If he can keep his slider at the bottom half of the zone he has been good so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
