Shades of Jon Rauch, lol…never seen someone go from a pure power pitcher to this at his size while still in his twenties.

Giolito 100 homers allowed trails only Dylan Bundy over the 2018-2022 time frame.

Giolito is turning into the Yoan of pitchers. Complete loss of their strength when they should be at their physical peak, and COVID has been blamed for both.

At this rate, we're going to need Tim to play half a game.

I swear Pollock tries to throw the ball past the catcher almost every chance he gets. 

Except for Engel, I'm always surprised when any of out outfielders hit the cutoff man

100.  Hahn is afraid of moving folks off the 40 man.  Reminds me of my grandmother hoarding useless shit in the garage.

And those old antiques and Hobby Lobby shops are going the way of the Baby Boomers…disappearing.

 

Moreno now 11/26 in his young career.

74 pitches, 10 outs

How is it that we consistently have an uncoached group of players who has no fucking idea how to call anyone off or make routine plays?  

Coaches don't need to do anything! They've all shown loyalty to the owner. It's sad that I'm beginning to care less and less for this team and I have been a fan for a very lonnnnng time!

Seby gonna get the 9th on the mound

"long covid" is such a BS excuse. I always worried how his arm/velocity would hold up with his half arm delivery.  Hopefully this is just a bad month and not what is to come.

Giolito 75 pitches already and about to lay waste to the bullpen.

He might need to go to the IL to get his head straight.

Giolitto is going to kill the pen today

I've been impressed. He'll go with the pitch and just flick it out for a hit. 

What happened to Gio 

He's cooked, let him eat another game.

Don't worry, Tanner Banks will cover a lot of this game with the way it's going. 

Who are the long relievers in the pen currently?

Lost his fastball and “it’s not sticky anymore”

Hanging slider and bases loaded. How about a double play!

Get me over curve on 0-2...really? 

Giolito is broken.  Might as well make Kelly or Hendriks starters again, lol.

Espinal had been 0/26.

Had been.

God, I can only imagine how upset we’d be if the Sox had signed him to an extension.

Foster Banks

Probably try to save Kelly and Lopez.

Ok, time to turn this one off.

Wow, what a pathetic performance by Giolito. He looks like he did in 2018.

Haha welp.
