Never, ever, ever, under any circumstances, throw Will Middlebrooks an inside fastball.

 

Funny, because that's what they got him to ground out on in his first two AB's.

Correctamento! That one is almost more unbelievable than Scherzer leaving that middle middle slider up to WMB after blowing Ross away with 97 mph heat.

 

I am actually OK with WMB taking care of business on inside FB's as I think that is what he was born to do....some of the fans here don't like it and apparently the Sox themselves don't like it. I just don't see WMB making a career out of hitting sliders low and away. If anything that pitch may cost him a career before it is all done.

I think I'd settle for him being to spoil sliders low and away. We know "approach" is born and not made. He's never going to walk a ton and he's never going to see a ton of pitchers. That's fine - Nomar and Vlad Guerrero made fine livings being up there to hack. He just needs to square up the pitches he wants and being able to at least get a bat on the stuff that bothers him.

This team is on a roll. I wish the playoffs were starting next week.

 

So do I. Skanks wouldn't be in, and the Rangers would run over the Rays in the WC game.
