10/2 at Nats

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

DEVERS DEliVERS business has been shut down, but hopes to re-open soon.

[YastrzemskI]

f*** you Devers!

 

The guy hit the ball hard. Jeez.

[iortiz]

Unlike Rodriguez, Houck had balls and attacked Soto.

 

Let’s go!

[d-money]

Ok fellas let’s try and get a lead.

[vegasbob]

The guy hit the ball hard. Jeez.

 

But needed a flyball not on top of the pitch. Bogey missing the FB in the upper part of zone would have been ok as a flyball too.

[iortiz]

Wow. This pitcher is a bum and we can’t score lol!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Knowing that the Yankems are getting clobbered has really fired up the SOX offense so far.

[Tedballgame]

Scoring first would be huge. Unfortunately, Devers wasn't up to the task.

[illinoisredsox]

f*** you Devers!

 

Devers ripped that ball and the Nats 2B made a really good play.

 

Let’s not pretend it was a soft room service grounder to second.

Nothing happening in Washington. Need to go to a wedding (not my own), so fellows, you are in charge of scoring some runs and offering sage advice. Get it done !

[d-money]

These slow starts offensively are just not good. Smh

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If the Nats' pitcher throws fewer fastballs and more slower junk, he will make it very hard for the SOX batters.

[Maxbialystock]

He hit it hard right into the defense.

[illinoisredsox]

A snake bite start to this one.

 

Not good.

 

Yep. Schwarber pulls his 3 feet snd it’s out. Even if he doesn’t do that, Devers pulls his about 2 feet and it’s an RBI single.

Lol. We got some s*** luck right now.

The junkballer always give us us trouble for sure. Smh

Let’s see what happens the second time through; they SHOULD have a better idea of what his pitches actually do.

 

Note, I said should. With these guys …

[YastrzemskI]

Mr. H is slingin’ it so far.

[iortiz]

Sending Houck to the pen next year would be a mistake. If he needs to add a couple of pitches, help him to develop them. He has the nerve to be a SP, and a very good one.

When discussing the SOX below average defense, Kike is excluded from the conversation.

This offense has been anemic recently. It’s beyond the pitcher. We have faced plenty of bums recently and we just can’t hit.

[YastrzemskI]

#17 sure kept the Nats in the ballgame last night.. had like three or four great grabs.

[d-money]

Plz score first.

I think that it’s a combination of some tough luck too. Plenty of hard hit baseballs last night but in the wrong places.

Hence the use of the ellipsis

When discussing the SOX below average defense, Kike is excluded from the conversation.

 

 

Sox players with positive DWAR's include Kike, Vazquez, Arroyo, and Bogaerts. Plus Iglesias has been pretty good at 2b, Renfroe has made some great outfield assists, and Dalbec recently has been decent at 1b.

[iortiz]

Plz score first.

 

Devers couldn’t deliver. People will excuse him. f*** him!

[iortiz]

Houck has way better idea of the strike zone than plenty of our hitters.

[Maxbialystock]

Tanner Houck, who bats what--10 times in a season?-- had a better at bat than JDM.

[Maxbialystock]

No runs in 3 innings by a Sox lineup stacked with their best hitters but not their best fielders (by a long shot).
