5/11 North of the border

I see, so basically Hanley doing usual stupidity on the base paths?

[a700hitter]

Man Barnes got lucky there, awful AB by that guy who couldn't lay down the bunt.

If that guy had gone to the plate without a bat, he would have walked.

[Sox75]

Yeah dude we get it, literally every player on the roster sucks, DFA them all.

 

Look . . . I love ya kid, but if you don't see what an exceptional talent Beni is, you need a cup check.

 

Yes. He's been a DUMB f***ING KID on the bases. No doubt about it.... BUT! Beni WILL come on soon, & you will wonder what the f*** you were talking about.....

 

Time for a check?

[jung]

It is a bit disturbing that most of our hitting problems are from the left side because it ties Cora's hands. Thats why I am glad Holt is back. He might add something that we are struggling with at the moment.

[SoxHop]

Yea. Hanley being Hanley. Nothing unusual.

[Natick to NC]

Hitters go through streaks. Beni and JBJ happen to be on bad streaks which makes sense based on how they are swinging at the moment. Vaz is as well. The top of the order is pretty hot except for beni and the bottom can't seem to buy a hit. Just the way it is dude.

 

Jung ...I may be the most negative Redsox fan here ...ill wear it .I see poof poof puff from those two all to often ...I'm freaking tired of it and Vaz .....dude I'm done with that kid done .

[Sox75]

i think Benny is over-blown. He's good, maybe very good, but he's not great, and I don't think he ever will be great.

 

His extra bulk hasn't had any results, but a good mythical hot streak could change my mind.

 

HE has an EXCEPTIONAL eye, and a fantastic swing!

 

IF he puts it together, the kid is going to soar!

[d-money]

Our offense just sucks dick right now

What overblown? I have never read anything on talksox suggesting that he is great or even near great. I think most of us would be happy with good, maybe very good.

 

As I said earlier, he's only 23 and last year, his rookie year, he was second on the team in rbi's and total bases. If we have a great player on this team, it's Mookie Betts and no one else.

[Natick to NC]

Carson impress me

[jung]

Jung ...I may be the most negative Redsox fan here ...ill wear it .I see poof poof puff from those two all to often ...I'm freaking tired of it and Vaz .....dude I'm done with that kid done .

 

Beni I have faith in because he is young and I have seen what he can do with a bat when he keeps his hands inside and does not have that ridiculous long swing. Doesn't he look at video. Does he not see how ridiculous he looks with that big swing? JBJ has a much more disturbing problem. He is older, should have figured more out and his problem is worse. He can't see the baseball because he has no head discipline right now. Its a bit late in the game to lose his head discipline.

[SoxHop]

I'm good with sticking with Benni and Devers. I think they they both will be very good. Close to all stars. Just picture these guys in two years.

[Station 13]

nearly 85% of Mookie at bats are with no RISP. Criminal.

[Maxbialystock]

You don't do yourself justice. You are not only the most negative Redsox fan here, but the one most often dead wrong. For example, the Red Sox currently have the best record in MLB. But, judging by your usual commentary, they have one of the worst teams in MLB.

Max we play at Fenway ...the guy as a hitter just isn't cutting it either ...I hope he blossoms but I don't see it ...projections for this guy is what 15 HR ? 265 average ..25 stolen 12 caught stealing ?? Hey he's talented sure but he's not even close to great .

Chances are one will make it big and the other won't ... we just don't know who is who.

You aren't just the most negative Red Sox fan here right now, you are the most negative Red Sox fan we've ever had here. You may be the most negative Red Sox fan, period. In all the world.

[Natick to NC]

Now if Vaz walks it off alllllll you owe me big

[SoxHop]

Nice face stickers Pillar.....

[Natick to NC]

.I hear you .

[Station 13]

Smith looking alright. Where has he been?

[jung]

Now if Vaz walks it off alllllll you owe me big

 

Well, hard to walk it off on the road. So yes that will be a miracle and yes we would owe you big in that case.

[jung]

Atta boy vaz pick it up with your hand, not with your mask.

[harmony]

Smith looking alright. Where has he been?

I've tempered my expectations for Carson Smith but the big right-hander is throwin' strikes tonight ... until he didn't.

[d-money]

Just terrible

[SoxHop]

Just terrible

 

What is? Did something happen to you?

[d-money]

Can we get offense already and win this game? Let's go fellas!!

[jung]

Now if Smith can put two one inning stints back to back like that, we might have a way to move some of these stiffs to "shall we say" a more fitting spot in the pen sequence.

[Natick to NC]

Well, hard to walk it off on the road. So yes that will be a miracle and yes we would owe you big in that case.

 

....true

[Station 13]

Vaz defense has totally evaporated over a winter.
