Resign Eovaldi and ride Sale, Eovaldi, Houck, Pivetta, and Whitlock for a few year run

This might be one of the best 6 inning pitching performances any of us have seen.

I know this is ridiculous, so you can let me have it, but Whitlock is looking like Pedro. Sorry. Ridiculous, but, I mean… Blasphemy! Kidding aside, I said in his last start that he was becoming a guy you make a point to watch. Like 2017 Chris Sale.

Whitlock coming out for a 5th inning? I assume that would be the limit if he did?

Just wanted to remind everyone the Sox got Whitlock for free. You didn't complete your sentence. "Just wanted to remind everyone the Sox got Whitlock for free FROM THE YANKEES!" Sentence complete.

There was a story in The Herald today that said the Sox have a 13% greater chance of winning when JD plays. Believe.

I know this is ridiculous, so you can let me have it, but Whitlock is looking like Pedro. Sorry. Ridiculous, but, I mean… Interesting...if Pedro was starting out in today's game would he be allowed to pitch 8 or 9 innings (120 pitches)? Over the last 2 decades things seemingly have evolved where an elite starter was considered solid for 7-9 innings. Then it became more pitch count focused. Now it's pitch count (trending lower), and times through the order. I really think if Pedro came up now, his career might very well turned out not as spectacular.

I loathe the pitch counts So ridiculous I think Nolan Ryan has spoke out extensively against them. Let the guys pitch. Cap it at 120-130

Welp. Tied game. He is obviously getting tired over 70 pitches. I thought his cap was 65 and Why I was wondering if he would be out for the 5th

> Pull Wacha, a career SP, at 60 pitches with 2 outs in the inning in a start he's dominating > Leave Whitlock in at like 75 pitches, 10+ pitches over his career high, with 2 outs in the inning in a start he's dominating

Whitlock sucks what can we get for him It has become clear that it will be the rare start in which a Sox pitcher goes more than 60-65 pitches. Cora is kicking himself for letting Whitlock go beyond that. Or maybe it is Dave O’Brien who caused it.
