Kruk was just talking about the pitchers they have hurt. Dylan Bundy has potential, but is coming off TJS. Tillman has baffled the Sox twice already, and Jimenez is inconsistent, but solid when he's on.

 

Bundy is a rookie. He might be dominant, or he could burn out. Tillman is a guy who can burn through innings, but he isn't a true #1. Their #2 is probably Jimenez, but he's never shown the capability to be reliable aside from one season in Colorado of all places. Chen took a step back last yr and has been destroyed thus far this yr. Norris is a JAG, and Gonzalez was a AAAA player until last yr, and is pitching like one this yr. Their offense is solid, and is likely to remain solid. But I don't have faith that their rotation can hold up

Decided to look this up, since it always seems the sox are always trailing early in games. The sox have scored 37 runs in the first 6 innings of games this yr. This is game #20, so they have averaged 1.85 runs through the 6th inning this yr. The sox have scored 27 in the final 3 innings, or 1.35 per game. But if you average it out, for the first six innings, the sox are averaging 0.3 runs per inning, but for the final 3, they are averaging 0.45. To contrast that, the sox pitchers have allowed 58 runs through the first 6 innings so far this yr (2.9 per game) and 15 in the final 3 innings (0.78 per game). Therefore, the sox are, on average, losing 2.9-1.85 by the 7th every game.

Basically, I noticed the sox always seemed to be trailing early in games, even in games they win. The numbers bear that out. The sox hit better in the last 3 innings and the sox are stingier in the final 3 innings on the mound. It is a strange model thus far to follow

trailing early in games because they are the 13th lowest scoring team in the AL? It took them 16 games before they score a 1st inning run.
