That’s certainly a…take.

I am pretty sure if you just stood there at the plate and didn't swing the bat Rock would walk you every time

FWIW, per Statcast, that 0-0 Rock pitch is only the second call that went against Sox pitchers and the other one missed by just 0.1". There have been 4 other missed calls by the home plate umpire, all against Sox batters.

Because this bullpen wasn’t built for a team that was supposed to contend and then they’ve had injuries on top of that.

I will grant you that, but this guy is lucky to get a 50% strike rate. That's not something you can live with. There are other pitchers in the Sox system.

Rock doesn't know where he's throwing it lol

forget changing eye levels

Oh trust me I don’t disagree.

So did he throw strikes in the minors or something?

Woof

Venable is a damn moron

No. 1.79 WHIP in AAA. No idea why he is here.

Rocks walk rate is awful. Why the hell is he still in there with the based loaded.

Walking that bum is very much DFA worthy.

He plays such a negative role in this team’s chances.

This Rock guy sucks

Did our scouts think he was a righty?

I guess we are throwing this game since we are going to leave Joe Rock in there to die

walks

defense

no clutch hitting/trying to do too much

dfa worthy back end of bullpen

To be fair outside of newcomb there isn't a good left handed reliever

They are still winning the damn game.

This Rock is The Peoples nightmare.....

Grichuk can’t really hit RHP and is a negative defender. Don’t see how this is an upgrade at all.
