7/23 @ Baltimore

Is Brasier the Austin Maddox of 2018. Unheralded, but very effective so far.

[jung]

That is such a hard play to make....that might be a once in twenty-five efforts play around the league. Pillar can make it. Keirmaier can. I am not sure another AL CFer makes that play more than once in twenty five tries.

[S5Dewey]

Defense. Love it.

 

Run prevention is as important as run scoring.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I hope the Rays game doesn't go extra innings. The Rays have used 8 pitchers in 8 innings. It's almost like the whole pitching staff pitches every night. Very democratic.

 

Most of the season the Rays' #5 starter has been the BP. Hopefully not, but there's a chance the SOX might be in a similar situation.

[vegasbob]

In small samples Brasier and Poyner ( back in AAA) have been the best RS relievers (ranked by ERA) ahead of Kimbrel

Pitchers are definitely going to agree with you. What Jackie does in CF can not be taught.

[d-money]

Well let’s see if the rays can close out the game.

[vegasbob]

Gardner, Judge, gregorius and Stanton up in the 9th for NYY. Interesting challenge for TB

OK, let's trade Kimbrel for Dozier and have Brasier or Poyner close.

Why would you do that.? It was a simple comment about how 2 inexperienced guys are doing well in a small sample.

[d-money]

A single to start the inning for Gardner.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Actually, the main difference between Kimbrel and Brasier is the sample size.

[d-money]

The rays are so pathetic

Do you know how to read sarcasm? And why would you even post something that meaningless?

Alvarado walks Judge for 2 on and no outs with Gregorius up, followed by Stanton. LOL. TB

You seem to have missed a lot of sarcasm along the way too , Ace

[Slasher9]

If 1 of the next 2 nights get rained out then my guess is they will play a makeup on 13-Aug (an off day for both teams).

If the next 2 nights are rained out they will probably have DH on the 11th or 12th and play on the 13th.

Hey, we share the game thread; it doesn't mean we have to like each other.

[d-money]

Skankees playing small ball.

Bases juiced with 1 out

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another shout out that the SOX need a good reliever.

[d-money]

Can they get Gary Sanchez out? Lol

[Station 13]

The Devers disaster continues.

Much agreed. Enjoy the game and the individual takes on it. No comments on relief pitchers

[d-money]

Garbage from Workman. Wanted to shutout this horrible team.

[vegasbob]

Yankees left the bases loaded to lose again

[fxkatt]

Can they get Gary Sanchez out? Lol

 

he drops to .187 and Rays beat Severino Great night for us. Thanks Alvarado.

[Jasonbay44]

Wow, Gary Sanchez didn't hustle at all on an absurdly weird ending to Yankees/Rays game, Yankees could've tied game there easily if he showed any effort down the line.. Lol, Thanks Tampa and Gary

[Slasher9]

Ok.

[Slasher9]

Wow, Gary Sanchez didn't hustle at all on an absurdly weird ending to Yankees/Rays game, Yankees could've tied game there easily if he showed any effort down the line.. Lol, Thanks Tampa and Gary

 

Sanchez and severino got into a heated exchange early in the game. Perhaps Sanchez sandbagged it down the line....
