Vaughn is unstoppable all he needed was a chance. 

He has a 740 OPS?

As good as Kopech looks tonight, I have a feeling 2 runs will not win this game.

Sweet molasses of Parnassus. Kopech is straight filth right now.

Let's Do This!

For a catcher, Melendez makes some nice plays out there.

Feels like Kopech's best starts are always on extra rest. The gems against NY and LA last year come to mind.

Greinke has very good command tonight. Not gonna hit those sinkers fading to the bottom of the zone.

Sub 600 OPS for TA, well done!

TA is cooked

You know what day it is, Kopech Day!

 

Despite some recent success from KC and their hitters, Kopech should have an excellent start tonight if he can rely on the fastball and command it in the upper part of the strike zone. He really needs to dial it back a little and let the ball naturally move and not try and throw it 110 mph bc that is where his command issues originate.  Most importantly if he can avoid the fastball sitting middle-down and avoid anything hanging he should come away with the win tonight as our hitters are facing grandpa Greinke

Go Sox let's get a win tonight!

 

You were absolutely right.  Kopech dealing tonight, perfecto thru 5.

In other goings on...

Damn it.

Still an excellent outing, has a great shot at 7 - 8 innings. Nice double play to get out of the inning.

Damn, if Vaughn was 5'10 that's an out

im still pretty pumped about a kopech facing the minimum thru 6 with a minimum of pitches

Michael "fucking" Kopech

and TA's ops drops below 600. Bat speed be gone. Those biomechanics classes really paid off!

Massey ruining it for all of his friends.

Greinke may be the worst starter in baseball or one of 'em. Tonight has to be an automatic W. Don't care about jinxes. This team isn't good nuff to worry about jinx statements.

Just beat this pathetic Royals team or will Massey and Lopez single handedly beat Chicago cause they have a few family and friends in the stands? This sad excuse for a team needs to dust off the pathetic Royals like everybody else does.

Final: Sox 9, KC 2. On to game two. Right?

Greg McAuley night tonight and BR day Sunday.  You should have flown in. 

Massey connections to both. 

Bradley should get pulled off the field for that... or just his sub 500 ops. 

Bradley can cover some ground. Thought that was in for sure.

so that what's happens after one of our hitter takes four "balls"

ah....bases loaded. our old nemesis

Can't teach that arm strength from Witt Jr.
