April 9, 20224 yr He might be protecting his ass without a long term contract. Be conservative with your body.

April 9, 20224 yr Gio just spoke, seems nothing major. Felt a few tweaks and said something. Feels ok today.... fingers crossed
April 9, 20224 yr Hopefully that's all it is a start or 2 missed. I really don't want to redo last season with the "Next Man Up" war cry or the Mt. Rushmore collage of faces that kept growing all year to injuries.

Stoney was saying there will be an unprecedented amount of injuries to pitchers this season because of the short ST. "Spring training is for the pitchers not the hitters."

April 9, 20224 yr Yeah if he’s unlikely to make his next start they obviously need the extra warm body to sacrifice out of the pen. A 10 day IL trip is basically one missed start.

April 9, 20224 yr I guess it's because of what has happened with injuries for the last few years, I expected 6-8 weeks. If it's 2-4 starts, that should be OK. TLR will need to "eat" some games and not burn pen. One thing that makes me not pessimistic right now is, I agree with Stone. This April/early May is going to be a fiasco for most teams. There are going to be crazy games with non-MLB pitchers. Best case for Sox is they get healthy by early May.

Agreed, but the frustrating/scary thing is there’s no limit to how many of your guys can get injured. Sox have already had some huge pieces get hurt...it doesn’t mean they’re safe from now on. If our opponents stay healthy for the next few weeks, nearly every pitching matchup is going to see the Sox at a disadvantage. I would argue the Sox have the worst pitching in the division currently.

Oh, I agree, it's frustrating as hell. It's why I said "not pessimistic" and not "optimistic" ? Edited April 9, 20224 yr by SoxFan562004

April 9, 20224 yr Giolito injury or not, I still can't believe Vince Velasquez is getting the home opener. That's absolutely embarrassing for the team during their "World Series Window"
