5/28 O's @ SOX (2nd game) 6:10 PM ET

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

D. Reyes (0-0) vs J. Winckowski (0-0)

 

Winckowski making his major league debut because of the SOX 10th game in 9 days. He does have 'win' in his last name so that's encouraging. His WHIP at Triple A is a minuscule 0.853.

The SOX BP, thanks to EO, should be better than last night. HOPEFULLY!

 

 

Go SOX!

Btw, Winckowski averaged just a little over 4 innings per appearance at Triple A. Not expecting another complete game, but I've been wrong before. Edited May 28, 2022 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

We might start this on time, or very close to it. The timing of the thunderstorms was quite perfect

Win is aiming the ball. Doesn't work . Did he sleep over at Barnes last night?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Not bad; only 16 pitches to load the bases and get 3 outs.

Winck, winck.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Reyes very economical and he appears to be throwing his patented pop-up pitch.

Over/under on pop-ups in second inning for Boston: 1.5

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Didn't the SOX once have a pretty good pitcher whose first name was Josh?

You win !

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

JBJ was robbed. Hopefully, we are witnessing the beginning of a Dalbec hot streak.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

You win !

 

 

Just donate my winnings to Cure For Baldness.

Might be a tough inning for Wink.

I was thinking BD must have been reading our assessments of his future and decided to get on his horse and ride with the wind

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Winck. Over/under 5.5 innings?

[vegasbob]

Winck. Over/under 5.5 innings?

 

I'll take the under because , with EO's complete game saving the BP, Cora will not want Josh to get bombed or lose his control for multiple batters

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nothing worse than giving up a base hit on an 0-2 count. Clubs used to fine pitchers for that.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

We didn't lose a Weber; we gained a Winck.

[vegasbob]

Might be a tough inning for Wink.

 

Hate to say you can see things about to happen. All this is with 2 outs and after an 0-2 count

[vegasbob]

Guess it is all part of a learning lesson .

Sign reads at every SOX minor league facility: "If you're looking for pitching, look elsewhere."

Reyes looking to lower his 6.48ERA.

[vegasbob]

This just in, POPS goes up again. How the hell does this guy stay as leadoff ?? Ok, maybe , somewhere in the lineup for defense but a .265 OBP at leadoff?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I actually feel bad for Winck. His family and friends were there to see him succeed. I'm glad my family and friend wasn't there on my first day of work. I sucked at selling aluminum siding.

Agreed. What a difference one more strike would have made
