At that point he was consistently pumping 99+ with a very sharp slider. The upside was very real. This version of him is a shell of what he used to be, add in his refusal to have a 3rd off speed pitch like a changeup and this is what you get.

Yes, there was an upside. But he didn't have command. Hitters were glaring at him because his 99+ fastball was getting close to their heads. He wasn't head-hunting; he just didn't have good control. Regardless, Kopech has been a part of the rebuild that hasn't worked out.

Sox fans are notorious for being fair weather fans.  The team blows, why bother exerting energy over it.

It was two pages by the time the game ended, I believe. I wonder if there’s ever been a game thread that was only one page.

There’s two weeks of Tigers and Royals games coming up. I will not be watching.

Not a lot to talk about when you lose 9-0 and have 2 hits.
