8/11 Sox @ O's game 2

[illinoisredsox]

Cuevas won't even get a shower before he is on the bus back to Pawtucket. Some fresh limp noodle will be called up tomorrow. Sale, Pom, wet noodle.

 

Cuevas was added as the 26th man for the doubleheader; he's going back anyway. Sale will be activated and (probably) Workman goes down.

[Tedballgame]

Holt comes through.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Manny & Ortiz; Betts & JD. Lynn & Rice. In one particular season, these would be my top 3 combos for the SOX.

[Slasher9]

The point being that the games now are every bit as important as the ones in September. Win now.

 

He rolled the dice with the kid in the 8th with no one warming. If your gonna do it to try and save some pen might as well do it against the O’s which is basically like pitching in AAA

[Station 13]

Tomorrow is probably Mookie day off. He likes giving Mookie a day off before an offday.

 

Just close this out without drama, Kimbrel

And my point was that attitude is one reason the Sox blew that lead 40 years ago.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This game is like walking in a dark alley in Tijuana. You don't know which mexican is going to ruin or save your day. Cue the racism remarks in 3,2,1....

 

Why even post s*** like that unless you're a dotard?

He's trying to provoke a reaction; don't humor him with one.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

You're right.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

You're right.

 

 

But he's probably looking up 'dotard.'

[Station 13]

God Kimbrel is not making it easy.

[d-money]

The Os suck! Sweep this s***** ass team tomorrow!

[Slasher9]

Cuevas > kimbrel

[a700hitter]

Kimbrel had better break out of this Home Run streak that he has been on.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Lately, Kimbrel is making DD's decision for next year easier.

[Slasher9]

He's trying to provoke a reaction; don't humor him with one.

 

Yup. I typed an essay response 20 minutes ago and deleted it. Not worth it.

[Slasher9]

Sweeping a doubleheader is never easy.

We have Sale tomorrow. We may have 100 wins before September

[d-money]

Kimbrel has a bad habit of falling behind. He seems to give up runs lately.

[Station 13]

This pen has better shape up. They were good until the MFY series.

[OH FOY]

This team is relentless. Been watching Baseball a long f***ing time. They are going to be tough, against anybody.

[illinoisredsox]

Kimbrel had better break out of this Home Run streak that he has been on.

 

Better he be in it now than later, but it is a concern.

[Carbo-Diem]

Si Se Puede pendejo!

[Carbo-Diem]

Magic Number is 36

Actually, as I posted earlier, going into today's games, the O's had the highest team BA in the league since the ASG. They were 6 and 6. No question, this SOX team has been amazing.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, the game was almost 4 hours long w/o a rain delay. Of course, our BP could be described as a rain delay.

[Larry Cook]

Kimbrel is one scary closer.

 

Maybe his agent needs to remind him that the big pay check next season is earned by not given my up tons of runs this season.

[OH FOY]

Don't worry about 1 run if you win by 2.

[OH FOY]

Crack me up on this place you want perfection, not going to happen. Ever. Win and move on. You lose you get stronger, and build on it.

Actually, they want perfection to start with, and then improvement from there.

[moonslav59]

Actually, they want perfection to start with, and then improvement from there.

 

The funny thing is, we're playing pretty close to perfect ball and have Sale, ERod and maybe others (Kinsler, Wright, Vaz & Swihart) coming off the DL soon.

 

Hard to see how we can get any better, but just sayin'...
