07/16/19 Blue Jays (Waguespack) @ Red Sox (Cashman)

[TylerD]

The starting rotation struggles ends tonight!!!! Because....... One man will rise above the authority..... One man will enter the gauntlet..... One man will solve this pitching problem one batter at a time.....That man is Andrew.....Andrew Cashner.

 

 

 

Say you prayers Jays. Tonight the Cash man enters the ring!

 

DUN DUN DUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Thunder]

Well, since I kept score of last night's game for the first time in probably 5 years, I guess I gotta do it again. That was actually a pretty entertaining game to score. Did it on my phone, though, and tonight I was gonna go paper.... Does that jinx it?

 

Win. Dance. Repeat. x2

[YastrzemskI]

Lgrs!

Do it on paper. No jinx.

 

I had to go to bed before that 4 run 8th by the Jays.

 

Yes, I hope our new starter will go at least 6, but the key stat is that the Sox lead MLB in runs scored.

 

The best defense is a good offense. As George C. Scott said about a year after we landed on the moon, "We're going to hold onto him by the nose, and we're gonna kick him in the ass. We're gonna kick the hell out of him all the time, and we're gonna go through him like crap through a goose!' Believe it or not, Francis Ford Coppola wrote the screenplay for that movie (and got an oscar for it).

 

As it turns out, our best hitting lineup will play tonight--

 

Betts RF

Devers 3B

Bogaerts SS

Martinez DH

Benintendi LF

Vazquez C

Bradley CF

Chavis 1B

Holt 2B

Haven’t seen that movie in years. Scott delivered a somewhat more sanitized of one that Patton actually gave in the spring of 1944. The real Patton had a very squeaky voice as opposed to Scott’s gravelly one.

It feels like we have to sweep the jays. Just win!!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Interesting that the SOX have 3 starters named PRICE, SALE, and CASHner.

It also relates to their other starter POORFELLOW. (I know that's a stretch)

[FredLynn]

Too many pitches

[Swiharts Ghost]

This is sad

[illinoisredsox]

Works quickly, I like that.

 

So far, he’s fitting right in. 6 foul balls so far.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Guys we have a catching problem or we just bought a dud .

[d-money]

Seems like cashner fits in with our other pitchers who take a zillion pitches to get an out.

[Swiharts Ghost]

ThankGod

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That was a textbook in leading off.

[FredLynn]

Nicely done by Devers

[Swiharts Ghost]

Didn't we have a closer that looks just like this guy .similar stuff

[FredLynn]

Something is nesting in Guriel's hair.

[Thunder]

Well, s***. I won't be scoring tonight's game. A little bit after 6, I feel asleep reading on a chair in my bedroom. I just woke up almost an hour later, but on my bed. How did I get there? The real mystery of the evening

[Swiharts Ghost]

Hey it's a start ?

[illinoisredsox]

Gurriel’s triple was on a pitch 6 inches outside. Shades of Vlad Sr.

[TylerD]

Alright just got home. How’s Van Damme Cash Man doing?

[illinoisredsox]

Sogard’s AB would have made Wade Boggs proud.

[Swiharts Ghost]

Yeah I'm not trading Mookie for atleast a year .

[Swiharts Ghost]

Yet to be determined .Kind of a typical Redsox start .High pitch count high blood pressure and some surprises .

Sogard singled on a 9 or 10 pitch AB, fouling off 6 or 7 pitches. Vlad Jr. hit into a DP. Gurriel tripled on a pitch 6 inches outside and Grichuk bounced out.
