8/21 vs Cleveland

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

And Jerry Mathers as the Bieber.

[Station 13]

Beside Mookie, who actually has a good at-bat??

[harmony]

Leoni Martinez or some guy who got a viral infection

Leonys Martin, the fleet outfielder the Guardians acquired from the Tigers in a deadline trade.

Mookie K'd, but, yup, he had the best at bat.He did hit a hard foul ball.

[redsoxrules]

For someone who throws hard he doesn't make hitters swing and miss much

And Jerry Mathers as the Bieber.

I had enough confidence in young Shane Bieber to include the 23-year-old righthander in my fantasy lineup against the Red Sox.

[Station 13]

IT's perplexing he doesn't miss bats indeed.

[d-money]

Cleveland appears to be as good an all around team as the SOX, yet the SOX are 5O games over .500 and the tribe is 20 games over .500. Is Cora that better a manager than Tito? However, the Guardians may be warming up at the right time of the season. Hopefully, a word used too often, the SOX don't see them in the playoffs.

 

It doesn’t matter what the Guardians do. This team has high expectations come october. This group has done diddly poo compared to the Guardians.

[redsoxrules]

Ffs get out of this inning

[d-money]

This team’s coming up small thus far in a big series. Need to get their s*** together.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Now that Tampa has taught Beeks how to pitch, can we get him back for Eovaldi?

[Station 13]

What a bad time to slump with Sale not returning when he's eligible to do so.

Sale would be one of the all-time great pitchers if the season ended on August 30th.

[Slasher9]

Now that Tampa has taught Beeks how to pitch, can we get him back for Eovaldi?

 

Lol.

[jung]

Unfortunately, this is a good ump for this kid. He is yielding low strikes and we can't even do anything to get him to get the ball up in the strike zone.

[jung]

There's one. Beni got one up and out over the plate.

[Station 13]

Why is Betts swinging at garbage all series and taking the good pitches.

[redsoxrules]

Ffs, that was meatball turned into a double play

[d-money]

They better not allow more runs. 2 runs look like 20.

[Station 13]

It has been a forgettable few days for JD.

Kid has got them all looking at their shoelaces for pitches and they can't hit the pitches out over cause .....they are looking at their shoelaces. Oldest rule of hitting....don't look for pitches you can't hit anyway. Find a way to get the pitcher to throw you something you can hit and then be ready for it.

[d-money]

s*** show pitching by this team. Pathetic!!!

[jung]

We don't need the getting another run right here.

[jung]

That was a ridiculous play by kinsler. Defense keeping us in this so far.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great run saving play by Kinsler. Eovaldi appears to have swing and hit stuff.

[d-money]

Get some damn runs!!!

[Maxbialystock]

I missed the first 3 innings. Right now it sure looks as if both hitting and pitching are problematical.

[Maxbialystock]

That was a ridiculous play by kinsler. Defense keeping us in this so far.

 

Not ridiculous, but definitely good and a play Nunez would not have made.

[Station 13]

Jose Ramirez is having a season like JD Martinez and playing great defense. Nobody really talks about it.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hey, Allen, you can thank Fred Lynn for not getting killed out there.
