8/29 vs Miami

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I think SWI has proven he can catch at a high level, and with Sandy devolving at the plate, I wouldn't mind making SWI the #1 catcher starting tomorrow. He definitely brings more tools to the offense than Leon.

Mookie's was that sort of HR. A nothing FB going nowhere...poorly located...right in Mookie's wheelhouse.

 

We need this complete inning at least out of Valazquez

[Station 13]

So sick of Leon.

[d-money]

Offense nowhere to be found. Come on!!

I agree with this. He could bring more to the table.

[redsoxrules]

I don't get the love here for Velazquez. He's been giving up baserunners all year; it's now starting to catch up with him.

 

He's allowed 1 run in 3 innings. He got the job done. I'd rather see him out there rather than Pom

[jung]

If we face a pitcher that does not have to throw FB's for strikes, we struggle.

While JBJr picked himself up very well and is in the upper .220's, Sandi has slipped now below .200 . His swing looks like his arms are made of lead, although his throwing to second is still good.

[jung]

Lost the strike zone. We may be able to get Richards outta' here.

[Station 13]

Benni has struggle this month, it has gone quietly.

[jung]

Mattingly waiting for us to take the lead before he pulls Richards

 

Richards has thrown 1 strike this inning...sorry 2 strikes

[vegasbob]

Benni has struggle this month, it has gone quietly.

 

Showed a lot of patience in that AB but wonder why he doesn't rip that inside medium fast ball

[vegasbob]

Pearce is no answer in this lineup.

[redsoxrules]

Pearce is no answer in this lineup.

 

He's only effective vs lefties

[a700hitter]

The analytics worked like a charm tonight replacing Moreland with Pearce and his 3 k's.

[vegasbob]

Pearce is no answer in this lineup.

 

JD Martinez on the other hand is.

[vegasbob]

He's only effective vs lefties

 

Last 45 AB's hitting about .210. At least it wasn't a DP.

[Station 13]

This game is about to get out of control.

[a700hitter]

It is time to get NeckTat out of the game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Beware of questionable new pick-ups by the SOX who make good 1st impressions. They tend to fizzle and you have to swallow every good thing you may have said about them.

[d-money]

Need a double play. Can’t allow more runs.

I will when Kinsler starts boxing balls like Nunez at 2B.

[d-money]

Throw strikes Velazquez

[a700hitter]

A little late Alex.

[d-money]

Velazquez getting himself in trouble here.

[redsoxrules]

Thanks Cora. He gave you 3 good innings and tried to squeeze another one out when he was clearly tired.

[Carbo-Diem]

Pray for Brasier, not any of the "gas can amigos".

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I will when Kinsler starts boxing balls like Nunez at 2B.

 

Actually, I wasn't referring to Kinsler. I think it's obvious what 2 players I was referring to.

[bmattioli]

Cora woke up.. Too late.

[d-money]

Skankees got the bases juiced and one out.
