    I believe the only player on the SOX right now who could be referred to as a contact hitter is Masa.

    He did have a 7.4 fWAR from 2022-2023 (17th best in MLB.)

    He must have done well vs others, too.
    When you say it's gonna happen now
    When exactly do you mean?

    Yup.

    We don't have many high OBP guys, either.

    And George Kirby did not make his MLB debut until May 8, 2022.

    What is point of this thread when all of talksox ignorant?

    Jansen unavailable Saturday night, but everyone condemned Cora for not using him.

    Jansen out and Devers missing 2 out of 3.

    Maybe the starting pitchers will surprise us all.
    I write fictional stories in my spare time. So don't fact check me. Better?

    Did Breslow have any plan?

    Any thoughts on Abreu? He looks totally lost and nothing like last year. Taking good pitches and swing at bad ones.
    He appears to be unconfident.

    So Bello threw his 4 seamer 540 times last year and was hit hard....ops above 1.000.

    His first outing? 0 4 seamers.

    It has been a good week to have George Kirby, Brayan Bello and Nick Pivetta in a fantasy lineup. We'll see how Bryce Miller does Sunday.

    Unprepared, overmatched, on his way out when Refsnyder comes back.
