Winckowski is hurting his trade value. I think he'll be good in the bullpen, but he's not a starter in the AL East. Maybe he'd survive in Oakland. He doesn't have the stuff to miss bats. I don't think he could make a good reliever unless we're talking about mop up duties.

there is way too much personal back and forth going on here. Check your big swingin' dicks at the door.
This is the GD game thread. As a 9 year veteran, i got the credibility to say so.

Winckowski is hurting his trade value. So has Yorke. Nick Yorke has been battling injuries. Winckowski is just mediocre.

Is it just me or have the Sox played a much different version of the Jays and Rays this year compared to the rest of the league?

Yeah I don't like the personal attacks myself. I resisted saying something 10 times now. It's not necessary. We are all rooting for the Sox. Save the attacks for Twitter Yankee trolls.

This series will actually affect the Sox playoff chances.

I root for the Red Sox, I don't watch the Red Sox to avoid kicking puppies. I only disappear when it gets insufferable with the complaining, which is constantly. So bye for now.
I also don't kick puppies, because there's more to life than the Red Sox winning every game without a single player who ever struggles.

I don't think he could make a good reliever unless we're talking about mop up duties. counter point...he has been facing tough teams and giving solid innings. Maybe when they get the book on him, that will hurt. But we have had way worse, he might be the outlier.

Winchowski is fine, not much hard contact, decent command. He’s basically pitching like Porcello (not 2017), should be a solid innings eater in the long run. He’d look a lot better to us if our offense were scoring more/nog running into outs

I must confess, I've never thought too much of him when he was in Portland so maybe I'm bias toward him

For all the “he’s not a starter in the AL East” talk he can pretty conceivably get a quality start with one more inning of work…
6 baserunners in 5 innings with one xbh. The horror!

One small blip for McClanahan in the fifth, but mowing the Sox down.

McClanahan showing why the Sox getting to him in the playoffs last year was impressive

When the question was Renfroe @8 mil v most mlb outfielders I saw the basis for the trade. When they took on 18 mil to trade him away for Binelas I thought “ok, I like Binelas and it’s not my money and JBJ can be our fifth outfielder. When they didn’t get anyone else in the off-season I I though “OK they’ll play it out til May and then fix it”.
Enough already, for the love of God.

I know this is a post directed at me. I say that out of respect about how good the division is. I already mentioned he probably would work as a starter in another division.

We had about 100 years of pitchers who rarely struck more guys out than Winckowski is striking out now.
