June 30, 20214 yr I don't care if we are ahead 16-1. Marshall cannot pitch with ANY lead!! ANY lead!! If he's "out of options" and we insist on not DFA'ing him, then the only time he can pitch is if we hopelessly behind. But NEVER AGAIN with ANY kind of lead.
June 30, 20214 yr It was pretty obvious he had an issue with his hand or arm. Stone called it. He's been inconsistent as much as anyone in the bullpen, but I wouldn't put his implosion completely on his ability tonight.
June 30, 20214 yr Well.....he may not for a while. Hope he is ok. But it may be a blessing in disguise
June 30, 20214 yr Dude is hurt. Crap on him if you like, but he's probably about to hit the IL anyway.
June 30, 20214 yr Marshall will probably be put on the IL and Kopech will be activated. Edited June 30, 20214 yr by maloney.adam

He's been total complete garbage all year. As a person, I hope he's alright. As a pitcher, I could care less if he's out all year.

It looked like he started to turn a corner.

June 30, 20214 yr Hopefully it’s nothing serious but I think he still needs to be put on the IL or sent down to work on his pitches. Edited June 30, 20214 yr by maloney.adam

It looked like he started to turn a corner. Too short a time span to tell anything. Because actually, he appeared he was turning the corner BEFORE the Detroit game. In that game, he gave away a 7-2 lead, and since that time he's had only 1 clean inning in his 6 appearances since that Detroit game, including allowing the tying hit in the big lead we blew in the TB game.

Agree with this guy 100%. He has been killing us. IL him or whatever, but you can't put him in games we're trying to win. Let Burr or Fry or both replace him. If we're really trying to win the division and hang on until we get our outfielders back, you can't put him out there in a tight game. He's had more than enough chances to show he's coming around to his old form, and it obvious he's NOT coming around. So go with someone else, anyone else.

June 30, 20214 yr I witnessed a kid tear his UCL (ulnar collateral ligament - significant tear = Tommy John surgery) when I was in high school. I was playing 3B and in on the grass for a potential bunt. You could audibly hear the snap. I saw the pitcher's grimace and walked up to him. When I reached the mound he was doing the exact thing Marshall was doing last night. Trying to stretch out his hand on his other forearm.

The Sox tweeted he was day-to-day at 10:27. So at that point he didn't have an MRI yet. The Sox announcement really means nothing until imaging is done and a couple of doctors' opinions are given.

June 30, 20214 yr Harsh, Marshall's a good dude who I'd rather have than not Poor season thus far however, hope he gets healthy

I wouldn't be surprised at all if that's what it is; I also wonder if that's behind his struggles this year - as much as people love to hate on him, he's been far above average in 2019 and 2020. Sad to see if that's what it is.
