He did get to bat and the struck out. Have you been watching the game?

 

Yes I'm watching the game. No telling how his chance to hit will be with Vazquez on. That is pressure on the pitcher in that instant. Betts was uncharacteristic in that ab.

hey I'm with you. ive been suggesting trading him while he had value since I joined this board, but I'm an idiot and jbj is an all world defender who will eventually get hot!

 

He deserved a chance IMO. He had it. Now its time to sit him. His numbers this year: .178/.535/44. These are intolerable. He needs to sit from now on.

more times then not we make outs on the bases "being aggressive" its being stupid, is what it is. pitchers struggle more from stretch then they do wind up. if Vazquez is on first with no one out, its way different than no one on and 1 out, mookie could've seen a better pitch too. we don't know what woudlve happened.

 

It was a close play on a perfect throw from Judge which not only went straight to the bag, but went hard to the bag. Anything else and Vazquez is safe at 2b with nobody out. Two ground outs can score him. A single can. A grounder and a sac fly can.

That was as predictable as rain in Seattle ...

FWIW: Seattle's average annual precipitation (37.49 inches) falls short of Boston's average annual precipitation (43.76 inches).

 

During the baseball season* Boston averages more than twice the precipitation that Seattle receives.

* from April through September Boston averages 21.11 inches of precipitation while Seattle averages 9.11 inches of precipitation

different situations cause for different results. just because a player struck out with no one on and 1 out doesn't mean he would've struck out with 1 on and none out

 

He didn't just strike out. He looked bad doing it. Plus it was a very close play that took a perfect throw to beat Vazquez.

I don't know why, but with all the random ranting and absurd comments being posted, this made me laugh.

If you had told me Pom would have gotten through 4 innings against this team in this park giving up only 2 runs I would not have believed it. When a pitcher knows he can't throw a four seam for a strike because it is that weak a pitch, he is defenseless. Heck of a job so far by Pom.

Playing a hell of a game and looks confident with each pitch. Couldn’t have expected anything more so far. Offensively we are laying an egg.

Like I said, these clowns judge plays by results.

Hey this could be one of our patented 2017 rallies. Strike out gets past the catcher. An error and a walk plus a bloop and we are back in this thing!
