i miss Heidi

 

Have a thing for blondes with no personality?

[VA Sox Fan]

My back locked up on me last year. No fun. Hope Gonzo can be ready for the ChiSox.

 

It's amazing how easily it happens. Not fun at all.

I just don't think Youk was going to make it possible to keep him. So as much as I wish we still had him especially in situations like this, I just think it was as folks thought....a situation that would grow untenable.

 

Then looking at what WMB did in that spot with Price...granted a mistake pitch in a terrible place....having the batter down 0-2, but that was still very special. The fact that he can do that reinforces the point that he was just ready to be up and playing....I don't think there is any denying that.

 

I do hope that the FO explored how this might work out with Youk thoroughly cause I think all said and done, the Sox would have been better off with Youk admittedly not in the role he had grown accustomed IF he would have tolerated the diminished role. If they just assumed it would be bad, I would be kinda' disappointed.

Lillibridge is on base!

[NativeBostonian]

B.J made that one close.

[NativeBostonian]

Lillibridge is on base!

 

Don't get used to it. Lol

[mvp 78]

Danny Ballgame doesn't need to bunt.

[VA Sox Fan]

Alright Ells!

[Laser Show]

Ciriaco, bases clearing 2B down the LF line..... And Go!

[Laser Show]

Fuuuuuuuck..

[NativeBostonian]

Omg why do you send someone who can't run.

[NC Sox Fan]

Shoppach aint built for speed

[VA Sox Fan]

DAMMIT! Great throw and Shoppach is slow!

[mvp 78]

BV sucks at picking base coaches.

[NativeBostonian]

DAMMIT! Great throw and Shoppach is slow!

 

If he raced a turtle I don't know who would win.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Just got back, and the Sox are up one

I was settling in for the fun

but as soon as I sat

Ciriaco did that

I guess I should never have come

[mvp 78]

With Papi on deck, that was so f***ing stupid. I mean really...

[jung]

Wow, that was a pretty good throw but if Shop can't get home on that the message is Shop is not gettin' home on anything.

 

They would have had to pitch to Ortiz bases loaded as well. That could easily have been a game winning inning.

I agree. You don't send a guy that slow.

[Laser Show]

Oh Aviles..

[lesterkett]

f*** aviles useless piece of s***

[NC Sox Fan]

Aviles! :thumbdown

[lesterkett]

Bring iglesias UP

[jung]

The thing about a play like that is that the coach has got to have played that scenario out in his head before sending him. "I got bases loaded, 1 out and a 1 run lead. I got Shop who I know can't run at 3rd and I have Ortiz on deck. A fly out leaves me with the lead....bases loaded....Ortiz at the plate.

 

You just have to accept that Shop can't run and you want Ortiz coming to the plate in that situation.

[lesterkett]

f*** after normar we cant have a decent SS

[Elktonnick]

Scuturo would have made that play.

[lesterkett]

Trade AViles and bring Jose >> he is ready

[a700hitter]

Scuturo would have made that play.

Ciriaco makes the play. He should be playing SS and Aviles should be at 2B.

[mvp 78]

It's ok. Ciriaco will be at SS when Pedey comes back.

[jung]

Once again....ball right at Aviles is the play he has difficulty making...big time. He has range left....no range right and real problems with ground balls hit within a couple steps one way or the other.
