Frank is right. The rainout was great. Lynn tonight, followed by Keuchel, Giolito, and Rodon.

Detroit has been playing good ball over the last three weeks. Swept the Royals, Mariners, and Yankees. Their pitching has carried them.

To win your division, you have to beat your division. Sox need to take 3 of 4 this weekend.

Sheets has been killing the ball in Charlotte. I want to see what he can do

If Sheets is good enough, he might just take Yermin's spot when Vaughn returns. The Sox telling Charlotte to play him in the outfield this last month is indicative that they at least considered this possibility Sheets stays as he had exclusively played 1B in the minors since 2017. If Sheets sticks in the OF, Eloy is your fulltime DH in August/September

I forgot how much Mazara sucks. Glad to see that bum stayed in the division

Lynn gives up 1 run over 6 innings, and his ERA goes up.

What an odd 9th.

The difference between Lynn and Dunning is literally the difference between 1st and 2nd place at this point in the season. Imagine if we had Lynn last year

Taking into account that up to now, it's a career year, but his efficiency blows my mind. I haven't seen a pitcher like him since Tom Seaver. His fastball runs from 89 to 96 and he can sink it, tail it, and cut it. People have no idea how hard it is to command that type of variety and speed of fastballs. The fucking guy is must see TV.

Agreed. They need to get him signed to an extension.

I gotta think this is Yermin's final shot tonight. I mean, as far as his name in the lineup being ink. Rumor is Mercedes didn't get much sleep last night as Sheets was breathing down his neck.

Keuchel getting hit hard for outs while the Sox don’t seem to be hitting. He’s not pitching poorly, I’m just not confident it’s sustainable.

Need some things to turn around these next few innings.

All of a sudden, we're living and dying by the HR ball.

He's fun to watch, and a great innings eater. I have zero confidence with him in the playoffs or against a good team.
