May 6 Tigers (Turnbull) @ Red Sox (Eovaldi)

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

My previous post was me not commenting on how terrible HP umpiring has been in most of the SOX games I've seen this year.

Arroyo is unavailable, Hernández is now out of the game, so the Red Sox now have Christian Vázquez on the bench and that's it. It's time - maybe past time? - to add another position player.

 

You think?

[moonslav59]

Is it too much to ask Marwin to go Gonzo on a pitch?

 

Yup.

[a700hitter]

Cordero is on fire

He’s making a bid to save his spot.

There's no excuse, anymore.

[a700hitter]

What happened to Kike?

[moonslav59]

Plawecki for Mayor!

[mvp 78]

6 left on base for Renfroe so far today.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The Tigers have a Farmer and the SOX have a Barnes.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

What happened to Kike?

 

Tight hamstring. Removed in the 1st inning.

[a700hitter]

1st pitch out by Dalbec with men all over the bases.

[moonslav59]

7 men left on base by Bobby Dee.

 

Bring Chavis up, whether you keep BD on the big team, or not.

[Maxbialystock]

What was the name of that Bill Macy/Alec Baldwin movie? The Cooler.

 

That's what Bobby Dalbec is: the Red Sox very own cooler.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Tight hamstring. Removed in the 1st inning.

 

However, it did give Cordero the chance to shine.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

7 men left on base by Bobby Dee.

 

Bring Chavis up, whether you keep BD on the big team, or not.

 

Replace Brice with Chavis. Why not?

[mvp 78]

6 left on base for Renfroe so far today.

 

Dalbec has 7.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The best thing I can say about Dever's defense is I love his swing.

[notin]

Dalbec has 7.

 

Dalbec going after the first pitch after Funkhouser just walked the ever dangerous Kevin Plawecki on 5 pitches is certainly a questionable decision...

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Don't know why the SOX haven't groomed Devers as a 1st baseman.

[moonslav59]

Devers is lobbying hard for the 2022 first base job.

[moonslav59]

The best thing I can say about Dever's defense is I love his swing.

 

It's really just the arm accuracy.

[moonslav59]

Top of the order with our newly found lead-off hitter.

[Thunder]

As crazy as it sounds, winning this game may be the best possible thing for us. Might straighten us out a little and give us some confidence again

How can you not like the name Funkhouser. There's a character played by Super Dave Osborne on CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM, which all of us posters should do, with the same name.

[Maxbialystock]

Let's not forget "cooler" Dalbec is versatile. What his batting can't do, his defense takes care of. He's the worst defensive firstbaseman in MLB.

[mvp 78]

Franchy x 3

[TylerD]

Lovin franchy today!!!! Wow

[mvp 78]

@alexspeier

Franchy Cordero - who wasn't in the lineup - has tied a career-high with 3 hits. It's the fifth of his career.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Looks like Cordero earns a start in tomorrow's game.
