Hopefully Eduardo Rodriguez can strengthen up the rotation when he comes back. I always assume young pitchers as talented as him will improve and get better from year to year and he does have the stuff. However I can't help feel a little concerned that there is also a chance that he takes a step back and continues to have issues tipping his pitches. It would be huge for this staff if him and Smith can come back and contribute to the Sox, I believe E-Rod is making his first rehabilitation start on Thursday.
I think Price will be fine and Porcello has been very encouraging this year. There is definitely more talent and reasons to be optimistic this year than last year on the pitching, but to date.....it's pretty much stunk.
