5/30 Jays Bleu

[mvp 78]

Not when there’s a guy on 3rd base and less than two outs. Maybe someone can hit a damn sac fly on this team.

 

Maybe somebody can be given the opportunity to hit a damn sac fly.

Good gambles, but idk why Bradley didn't release for the plate when the throw went through to get Benintendi.

 

JBJ has some speed but he is not a good base runner.

 

Having said that, if Beni went on his own, he may not have known. That’s a play you have to anticipate; the coach can’t help you there.

[mvp 78]

Lot's of talk about JBJ batting recently. It was mentioned he got rid of the leg kick about a week ago to simplify the swing.

 

WRONG

 

His swing is less loopy and his hands are getting inside the ball or his hands aren't less loopy and he's just not closing his eyes when he swings or his shoulders are looking better or something. It depends on which TS hitting coach you ask.

A base runner with good instincts would have taken off.

I agree.

[d-money]

Offense looks awful today. Not surprising.

Half the team has piss poor instincts.

[d-money]

Come on ERod

He doesn’t have good instincts. Betts has them; Beni and JBJ not so much.

 

Two of the best runners in recent years were Lowell and Napoli. No speed but they knew when to go and when not to. Ortiz was pretty good as well, especially until what little speed he had left him.

True. Lowell was an excellent base runner and he had no speed.

[d-money]

Let’s get some runs plz

[SoxHop]

Talk about bad base stealing, they could have shown a commercial during Morales leaving first and being tagged out at second.

[SoxHop]

Let’s get some runs plz

 

do that again will ya

[mvp 78]

Not enough reviews today! Guess humans are so good that they don't really need help from non-sentient scorers.

Whereas Pedroia has no speed and no instincts.

The last day game that I attended was against the Royals. There were 4 or 5 reviews that day where the calls got reversed. Maybe the umps are hungover at the day games, or their eyes are hypersensitive to daylight.

Josh Hamilton is the prototypical umpire then.

@alexspeier

 

Granderson is the only Blue Jays LHH in the lineup. He's 0-for-2 with 2 strikeouts. Rodriguez has struck out 22 of 44 lefties he's faced this year. He is now a scheduled day off for most LHHs.

 

Is ERod "back"? It seems like he's back!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

With POM pitching tomorrow it would behoove the SOX to win today. POM will have something going for him tomorrow night; the law of averages.

god damn you MVP.

I should keep my dumb mouth shut.

You were just the messenger, I blame Speier

If you were a Professional couch sitting athlete, you would have known the etiquette about jinxing your players.

[d-money]

Amazing how a walk can bite you in the fanny. Rodriguez was rolling and he walks a hitter then boom.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

E-rod has pitched a very good 6 innings.

[Slasher9]

why the f*** is our #2 hitter trying to bunt?

f***ing cora

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wtf!

[SoxHop]

Defense shift that you bastards...

[Slasher9]

I like this JD guy.
