ShoeLessRob Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Don't let him come back out, throw Burdi/Ruiz out there and let's see if Red Sox can set a record for runs in a 9 inning game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominikk85 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Is there a way to see live in game spin rates? I wonder if his fb is not just slower but also having 100 RPM or so less than usual the way they are making contact with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't seen him like this since he flipped the switch in 2019 I think you would agree with me that I’m not overly concerned with losing just this one game. It happens, but the concerning thing is if he doesn’t have his best stuff this year, it’s going to be a very long season for the team. Sox need him to be a reliable upper echelon starter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalk it up to early game, lack of command, w.e but he's the Ace of this staff and he's gotta be better than this As soon as I saw Merk's tweet this morning about how lucas is not a morning person, combined with his recurring problem last year of struggling to get his body stretched out and ready for gametime, made me hope that today's game wouldn't happen like it did. But, to me it seems just like a schedule loss. But game ain't over, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Vaughn should play rest of the game for Leury. Let him get more reps in a game you likely use. Also wouldn’t mind an early replacement of Collins for Abreu. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
