August 31, 201411 yr 4 hits and 3 walks through 2 and 1/3 innings for Rodon with 44 pitches thrown. Wonder if the "pressure" / prospect of getting called up with a stellar preformance is getting to him. Get your bearings kid... Try and make it through 5 innings without giving up anything else. Redemption song, man!
August 31, 201411 yr Author Rodon 52 pitches through 3. I'm not sure the results matter. He's coming up.
August 31, 201411 yr Rodon through 4 innings. 4 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 7 K. Not as it seems it started. He is settling in.
August 31, 201411 yr Author It would be pretty cool if this is the last inning of minor league baseball Rodon ever pitches. (Other than a rehab assignment) 70th pitch goes for a single.
August 31, 201411 yr Author Rodon probably done. 5 inn, 7 hits, 2 er, 3 bb, 7 k, 1 hbp 81 pitches-48 strikes.

August 31, 201411 yr Oh wow. Montas is starting tonight instead of tomorrow. 2IP 1 unearned with 1 K. Defense has 2 errors so far.

August 31, 201411 yr Author Montas 5 IP, 1 hit, 1 unearned run, 1 bb, 1 k 60 pitches Edited August 31, 201411 yr by flavum
August 31, 201411 yr QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 30, 2014 -> 09:21 PM) Montas 5 IP, 1 hit, 1 unearned run, 1 bb, 1 k 60 pitches Wish there were more strikeouts but he obviously pitched real well still.
August 31, 201411 yr We know he has a big fastball and he can strike guys out. I am just happy that he didn't have the jitters of pitching in AA for the first time and walked a bunch of guys. Pretty promising start.
August 31, 201411 yr That's got to be Montas' lowest K outing ever. Rodon is walking too many. Still has plenty of minor league work to do. As I recall, a lot of people were touting Goldberg at the start of the season as future closer. What happened to him?

As I recall, a lot of people were touting Goldberg at the start of the season as future closer. What happened to him? Likely due to mechanics adjustments that the sox have made. But I agree, he does need more work.
