7/29 vs Twins

[mvp 78]

Eovaldi vs Berrios

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX need to bury Berrios.

[a700hitter]

Berrios can be very tough.

[TylerD]

I don’t know much about this pitcher. Is he capable of 9 shut out innings lol?

I think he might have a shutout this season.

[OH FOY]

Swihart playing 3rd base.

[jung]

1. Mookie Betts ® RF

2. Andrew Benintendi (L) LF

3. J.D. Martinez ® DH

4. Steve Pearce ® 1B

5. Jackie Bradley Jr. (L) CF

6. Eduardo Nunez ® 2B

7. Blake Swihart (S) 3B

8. Brock Holt (L) SS

9. Sandy Leon (S) C

[OH FOY]

Swihart at 3rd and Holt at SS, ought to be interesting. I could see bunting at key point in game.

[OH FOY]

Lets see if Eovaldi, got some points from last time faced the Twins on July 13, he got crushed by them. Edited July 29, 2018 by OH FOY!

The Sox or the Twins?

[d-money]

Would be nice to see our lineup beat up a good young pitcher like berrios.

[illinoisredsox]

I don’t know much about this pitcher. Is he capable of 9 shut out innings lol?

 

Yes.

 

Overall, 10-7 (for a club well under .500), ERA 3.48 and a WHIP under 1.000. He's a good pitcher.

[OH FOY]

The Sox or the Twins?

 

Twins. I would test him at crucial part of game. Bunting for a hit.

[d-money]

Need better location from eovaldi.

[d-money]

Hope eovaldi gets into a groove after that very first inning.

[OH FOY]

He's got a nice slider.

[vegasbob]

At 73-33, the Sox are still the only team with 70+ wins. In the NL , no one has more than 60. For all that, the Sox are still 8 short of a guaranteed .500 season. But it's still July, so it's early (Joke)

[OH FOY]

Some pitchers throw 93 and looks like 98, it gets on hitter quick. Some throw 98 and looks 93, because very little movement on Fastball.

[jung]

I am afraid that is what they will do to JBJ late in the season and post season in tight spots.

[OH FOY]

Bigger responsibilities batting 6th to drive in Runs, not a good K there by JBJ. Only positive no DP.

[Station 13]

So f***ing tired of Nunez.

[FredLynn]

I am afraid that is what they will do to JBJ late in the season and post season in tight spots.

 

He is on a little hot streak, but he hasn't proven he can hit with the consistency that would keep him in my lineup regularly.

[vegasbob]

Who held Benintendi at third on Polanco's error ? That ball bounced well out into the grass and Beni was already running because of the force out possibility.

[Station 13]

The only time Nunez does anything is when the game is decided already.

[vegasbob]

I am afraid that is what they will do to JBJ late in the season and post season in tight spots.

 

You certainly saw a good example against a herd thrower. Up and in or down and in, but always IN

[d-money]

Already squandering an opportunity against a good pitcher.

No idea and lately Remy only really points out the miscues of the opponent. He simply ignores many of them from the Sox side of things. Anybody in the park today know what happened there cause that did look really strange.

[OH FOY]

Who held Benintendi at third on Polanco's error ? That ball bounced well out into the grass and Beni was already running because of the force out possibility.

 

Agree

[Station 13]

JBJ hitting 6th shows the length this lineup is cut off after the 5 hole batter.

[vegasbob]

Eovaldi bring it at 97mph with some movement.
