This isn’t what Drew Pomeranz wanted to happen in a contract year. The lefty is off to a miserable start to the season that has many questioning his place in the rotation. As poorly as he has pitched so far, the Boston Red Sox can’t give up on Pomeranz.
Friday night’s loss to the Baltimore Orioles was ugly. Pomeranz lasted a mere four innings for the second consecutive start. He allowed five runs (four earned) on seven hits and two walks.
Pomeranz didn’t pitch well by any means but he wasn’t quite as bad as this line suggests.
