Soroka is no longer an MLB pitcher. His stuff is terrible. He's not fooling anyone. I know he's always been a sinkerballer but whatever he had before the injuries is gone.

I die a little bit inside every time I see him bat or play in the field.  The dude just brings nothing above average to the table and is actually bad in certain areas.  What a great parting gift the late great Rick Hahn.

And yet Boston protected him and Devers in favor of Moncada/Kopech.

Smoked. 113 exit velo.

Great effort trying to get to that one. I knew Witt was gonna go for 2 as soon as I saw Robert slow down trying to field that ball. 

That was a double all of the way.

I would like a Bobby Witt Jr

That’ll happen when you blow your leg out twice

Explain your Hudler comment bro

That was a double as soon as it left the bat. Doesn't matter who is in CF or how hard they were going.

Benintendi was the first ask for Sale...no.

Then Moncada.

Devers was going to be the second or third piece if they couldn't agree on Kopech.

No again.

That pitch wasn't even close WTF.

How can umpires suck so bad year after year after year. Like, figure it out.

I dunno. He looks like a serviceable 5th starter to me. Certainly better than Flexen.

Who had a higher average sprint speed than Moncada after two Achilles' tears.

Just hustles.

 

Sheets will be in that lineup forever.

Yeah he has looked fine today. First run shouldn't have even scored. Vaughn should have had it.

I don’t think you’re understanding…why are you watching the Royals broadcast is what I’m asking

He got it up!

The problem is he’s got nothing. He’s getting hit hard. 

That was prime Tim Anderson there.

he's performed as well as I would've expected so far and is doing what he was tasked to do: generate weak contact and grounders. I think he'll start hitting his spots better over time. Whether or not that's a sustainable recipe for success is debatable but I can't quibble too much with the pitching/defense thus far.

no double play this inning!
