Another annoying start vs a slop thrower.

Btw, TB is for real. Those guys aren’t going away, and the Sox can I’ll-afford to cede too much ground early. I feel bad for Andújar, yet at the same time the Sox really wanna take advantage of NY’s injury bug, with Stanton out for a bit and Severino and Andújar down for a *while*. And Chapman is under for velocity. He got hit hard by Detroit tionight. Hicks having back problems, too. They’re in rough shape. That Sale went six (pretty deep, against a solid lineup) and pitched well despite limited velocity, on top of the Speier article, makes me feel better about his health. I recognize FTHW’s concerns re: mechanics and injury, but I liked Sale’s command yesterday and if he were hurt, I think it’d show there. I think the dead-arm hypothesis, given limited ST innings, is a reasonable one. Plus, the lack of extension means his effective velo is especially low, hence the lack of Sw/Miss. The bullpen has been largely encouraging and if Sale’s OK, health isn’t remotely the issue it is for NY (Andújar down *really* hurts their depth, sticking DJ at third and forcing Tulo to SS full-time). I expect the Sox to bounce back pretty soon.

90% of pitches to Betts is away. He pulls about 3/4 of them.

Could be another high pitch count 1st inning.
And I wish someone would take the idiots' drums and horns and stick them up their asses.

So, how is that robo-ump experiment in the Atlantic League going?
Can’t wait til the let Eovaldi loose so he can get his velo up to full speed, too.

Mentioned lineup balance as the reason he went back to betts 1 and benni 2. Pearce coming back tomorrow according to sources so benni should be leading off tomorrow

Will be over 50 pitches in 2 innings. Yikes.
When will this bizarre nightmare end?

I don’t know which bothers me more.... our starting pitching only being able to last 5 innings max or our hitting getting shut down over and over by soft tossing journeymen

Know what? Devers looks like a real third baseman. He's really quick. Right now it's about focus and control and those seem to be developing.
