caulfield12 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) For all starters not named Giolito, Lynn, Kopech, Cease and Keuchel…the optimal goal would be a .500 record in these games, although .450-.475 is perhaps more likely. Team Record 1-2 Velasquez (0-1), 8 2/3 IP, 7 H, 4 ER, 6 BB, 7 K’s=4.15 ERA Lambert (0-1), 3 IP, 2 H, 2 ER, BB, K=6.00 ERA Total…11 2/3 IP, 9 H, 6 ER, 7 BB, 8 K’s. 4.63 ERA. 1.37 WHIP. About as good as could possibly be expected so far, right? (Looks pretty similar to what we're HOPING to get out of Keuchel, actually.)

About as good as could possibly be expected so far, right? I thought Lambert did ok but last night the bats couldn't carry him. I may be wrong but I thought he pitched a little better than the bare stats and Velasquez was a little worse than his bare stats, but if we get away with a .500 record in their combined starts then we will be doing very well!

CentralChamps21 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 If Giolito/Lynn/Cease/Kopech combine for over 110 starts, it's going to be hard for this team to not win at least 90 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcq Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Interesting tidbit in the Tribunal. Vince V debuted against the Sox in 2015 with five shutout innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScootsMcGoots Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 So, this rotation has literally been the strength of this team without Rodon, Lynn, and Giolito. ERA: 2.27, OPP AVG: .153, OPP OPS: .506, K %: .270, WHIP: .95 Thats first in the AL for all those stats 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 17, 2022 Author Share Posted April 17, 2022 First Sox starter to give up more than 3 runs. Michael Wacha @ $7 million >>> VV and Cueto Plus we are about to destroy the bullpen before two important divisional series on the road.

Not many starters are going past 5 innings. At least VV got 4+ innings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this was said in the first inning when it looked like VV wasn't even going to escape that situation... They used mostly the back end and guys who won't even be on the roster in a month, but it's looking quite likely they will have at least one doubleheader this week.
