Another no doubt simplistic generalization. Sox pitchers, at least for the last few years, have never been as comfortable pitching low in the zone as other teams pitchers have been--or so it seems to me.

 

Today Andriese has thrown the majority of his pitches either low in the zone or below the zone and still had no problem with walks.

Porcello is know as a sinker ball pitcher, but that only works if you go low in the zone, which today he seems to have a problem doing.

We have at least two starters that now rely on high FB's as their K pitch that probably should be trying harder to just keep the barrel of the bat off the ball and let them hit it somewhere to a fielder. Porcello used to rely on the Sinker but now tries to get outs on high heat. Pomeranz now tries to get outs on high heat. Eddie definitely tries too hard to K people though he is starting to do better at that last couple of starts.

 

Of late the entire staff has thrown crap for location no matter what they are throwing up there.

Nunez really needs to start hitting. His glove is so bad that he's literally a negative right now.

 

That was only a matter of time. Only dif between Nunny and a port-o-potty at 2nd base is that Nunny is a port-o-potty with a glove hanging off the handle.

Utter s*** at home. Yankees will be taking over first place very soon.

 

Still in this damn rut since the no hitter. I know Tampa is playing extremely well lately but we are killing our selves. Porcello is looking like hammered s*** today and offensively struggling again. Night and day to how this team looked a week ago. At this rate Yankees and Rays are going to challenge for the division.

I have no clue why we think nunny is a 2nd baseman of any sort. What....he showed up with a 2nd base mitt in his bag and we thought that was enough. He can barely stand up out there at the position.

Send Leon packing already.

 

This team can't do nothing right. Have to stop the bleeding in the next series. Unacceptable especially when you playing at home.

Take Pedey, X and Mookie out of this batting order and they look helpless. They should be better than that but with two guys in diapers, basically they are not.

Why not send Nunez there? I mean really, what could possibly go wrong?

 

His wheels these days can’t handle 180 ft
