7/26 Tabula Rasa

[Kimmi]

Thank goodness we won today. I can enjoy the off day tomorrow.

 

Sale is awesome. What more needs to be said about him?

Sale is so good you're pretty much expecting him to put him up 7 scoreless with 11 K's.

He's pitching as good as Ive seen. When he's on he's filthy.

This week my fantasy team has reaped the benefits of starts by lefthanders James Paxton and Chris Sale in their respective teams' 4-0 wins:

 

JP 7 IP, 0 R, 4 H, 0 BB, 10 K, 103 NP

CS 7 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 1 BB, 11 K, 115 NP

Anything but Holt hitting leadoff.

 

No offense but I wasn't asking you. I figured a700 wouldn't bother to respond; I was right.

[illinoisredsox]

Kimbrel definitely making this a bit more intense than it has to be.

 

Kimbrel? He faced 2 batters and struck both out.

 

Boyer pitched the 8th and started the 9th; got the first guy then gave up a hit and a wallk. That brought in Kimbrel.

I never saw your post as I stepped away from my computer after my post.

 

My answer is that my lineup would include a player that we haven't acquired. I realize that you took my post as a slam at Farrell, but it wasn't. It was a slam at our offense.

Fair enough. I don't see how one newly acquired player is going to make a difference in the offense without 3 or 4 of the current players raising their game.

I think one potent bat could make a big difference.

Enjoying this win as best I can. I just realized we have a series starting Friday with one of the hottest teams in the league. Ugh.

KC has won 9 row, I believe. I hope that means they are due to lose a few in a row.

 

We'll be facing a couple of tough pitchers, including Vargas, who is having a near Cy type year.

 

I hope Price is up to the challenge.

Vargas hasn't had a QS over his past 3 outings. He's definitely cooling off.

Meh. I like KC for the Q and little else.

 

Although I would take Hosmer and Perez on my team any day.

Ugh that is 2 very tough series Why couldn't it have been the White Sox and Athletics lol.
