Not too shabby. If you had told me we'd do that a week ago, I would have been very content. The bad: Lucas is cooked and we lost 2 players who are good defensively and have been contributing offensively. This team won’t make the postseason if Giolito doesn’t snap out of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how they really measure sprint speed, but half our guys loaf it down to 1B so I wonder how much that affects their average sprint speed.

caulfield12 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) 85 pitches for Giolito now. Continues to absolutely wear it. ERA at 5.46. Hello 2017-18. Edited June 22, 2022 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankchifan Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) Burger has sucked since coming back from getting hit by a pitch on his wrist. Too bad as he was on a roll before being hit. Edited June 22, 2022 by hankchifan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already used a lot of pitchers last night and have a 4 game series starting tomorrow. GIolito is eating an inning here because the bullpen needs it.

Not even sure why he’s rostered if not for this. Then Foster. Then position players…just not ones we can afford to get injured pitching.

But I don't think his ERA ever got above 4.2. His ERA is in the 5s now and that was with a pretty solid start this year. He's basically replaced Keuchel in terms of production ever since we DFA'd Keuchel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only meh lineup he's faced the past 6 starts is the Rangers and they're not that bad. That doesn't excuse just how awful he's been though.

Jack Parkman Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) At some point, you have to blame the players for underperforming. Idk what has happened, but Kopech, Lynn and Giolito all took a major step back with their stuff this year. Kopech has been the only one who has been able to pitch through it, but idk how much longer that's going to happen.
