Will the Price finally be Right?

[TylerD]

A win is a win baby

[SoxHop]

This game is all about Price finding his mojo

[d-money]

Yankees losing. They have been awful lately. Hope we take advantage

[S5Dewey]

How does this happen? How can a team that played as well against the Sox as Baltimore hit the skids and can't win a game? And the same with the Yankees.

 

I just refuse to believe that the Sox played so badly that they made these two teams look like world beaters.

Such is baseball. In 2009 I think we beat the Yankees the first 9 times we played them and they beat us the next 9.

It's all due to the random nature of the game.

[Bellhorn04]

It's all due to the random nature of the game.

 

I don't believe it's 100% randomness, but there's certainly a lot of it in the game.

[a700hitter]

It's all due to the random nature of the game.

Or one team was hot and the other cold, and the next time, it was different. Those hot streaks are not repeatable skills. Therefore, they don't exist.

[Spudboy]

So Holt to the 60 day DL, Rutledge out with a concussion and Pablow out with his clogged cranium.

 

Some 23 year old kid named Lin is up from Portland.

 

Yeeeeeehaw!!1!!

 

Technically he is down from Portland. But you know what I meant.

[S5Dewey]

I think I saw Lin in ST.

 

I remember that because I said, "WHO??"

[TylerD]

This game is all about Price finding his mojo

 

Ya it would appear that isn't happening yet.

[d-money]

Price still looks like s***

[a700hitter]

I think I saw Lin in ST.

 

I remember that because I said, "WHO??"

We saw him play against the Pirates. I think he got a hit.

[S5Dewey]

LOL. Your memory is better than mine!

[a700hitter]

LOL. Your memory is better than mine!

I remember asking you about him because I wasn't familiar with him and I was wondering if he was another Asian player with a similar name from a few years back. I sought of remember him doing something positive at bat, but had to look it up to confirm that he got a hit. Edited June 24, 2017 by a700hitter

[TylerD]

Awesome inning for Price there.

[a700hitter]

It is about time that Moreland got a hit.

[d-money]

Price's velocity not an issue. 96 on that pitch

[d-money]

Price a little wild

[OH FOY]

He has no secondary pitches that he throws for strikes. Live and die with the fastball.

[d-money]

He has to add some type of pitch.

[TylerD]

Price atarrting to settle down. Two solid innings.

[d-money]

Where's the offense? They should destroying this pitcher

[d-money]

Bogey error leads to a run

[Bama Boy]

Just cant make that many defensive miscues in an inning an not expect it to bite you in the ass

[Station 13]

I Loathe this f***ing infield.

[TylerD]

Get that run back! Price hasn't been too bad. Offensively we're struggling

[TylerD]

Where's the offense? They should destroying this pitcher

Typical of us to do this against average pitchers.

[Maxbialystock]

Price appears to have little command of his changeup, knuckle curve, and I think slider. that's why he throws all those fastballs.

 

At the same time, Bogaerts makes two errors in one inning to ensure an unearned run.

 

And, as stated above, the hitters ain't hitting. Was it the 2d inning when Moreland led off with a dinger followed by Beni's double? Then HanRam strikes out looking, JBJ is HBP, and Vazquez and Marrero ground out weakly.

 

A terrible game so far.
