Not good

Cricket's velocity down?

Gun must be slow if Crochet is at 95-96.

I want to feel bad for Madrigal, but his personality rubs me wrong. Little man syndrome, always trying to prove himself.

That says less about him and more about you

Did Katz take 4-6 MPH off everyone's fastball, lol?

We were freaking out in the playoffs when he dipped down this low from 100-102/103.

 

SEVEN fastballs in a row?

WHAT?

Nope that’s where he’s been in ST

I was wondering why you made this reference and then I remembered this avatar I chose like 10 years ago and never changed

This gun has had Kopech and Crochet sitting around 96 so it definitely has to be slow.

Well, you gotta throw strikes, kid.

Ball isn’t coming out of his hand well. Lacks zip

It sucks whenever I ask someone why they have a Sox or Bulls hat on they tell me they just like the hat.  I guess at least they are popular in the culture.

Ugh, I just hate how they’ve neutered him.

Really not good

Get him some vaseline out there, he's overholding it.

This bullpen...and some of these pitch selections, sheesh.

Crochet was great last year, but he found himself in a lot of 3 ball counts. He wasn’t exactly pinpoint.  

DP time, let's go

get someone up

Are they calling pitches from the dugout with Collins in?

Listening on radio, and they haven't mentioned it. Watched pitches called for Collins and Mercedes on the internet streamed ST games.

Thanks in advance,

double play please.

?‍♂️ think the kid just needed to come up and play fundamental baseball instead of saying he’s going to have 3,000 hits. Sox fans would love him if he played solid defense and had a solid OBP. 

Not quite as effective when he works around 95 mph...

Starting to think Crochet being able to hit 101 may have been a fleeting star situation.

This team is ridiculously young, keep reminding myself that.  This dude has like 20 innings in pro ball.
