May 29th Orioles & Red Sox

[moonslav59]

Need a win.

 

Pivetta on the mound.

[vegasbob]

Win today or go home....but wait, the team is already at Fenway where they do not have a .500 record yet.... but could after today......or not

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hopefully, the SOX will show more spirit than they did last night. C'mon, SOX, don't force me to discuss my aluminum siding history again.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'm beginning to adjust to JD being a slap hitter and not a HR hitter. I hope he wins the BA title this season.

[vegasbob]

Vaz is on fire, killer bat and runs like the wind. What is our likelihood of scoring with a man on 2nd and 1 out ? Better than no outs, i suspect

[vegasbob]

Still sporting 2 sub-Mendoza line batters with low .500's OPS. Kike has hit his way out with .204/.604 but an ohfer day would sink him. Needs a 2 for 4 with a walk today

[vegasbob]

100% chance of touching them all. Good for Dalbec and the Sox

[moonslav59]

Bobby Dee starting his 2022 Comeback Tour.

 

[vegasbob]

Franchy gets all of it. Makes so much sense to have a guy like his current hitting in the #9 slot hiding Arroyo at 8

[moonslav59]

I've said for a while now, Cordero should play more in the OF, assuming Dalbec starts hitting or we add a 1Bman.

 

The problem is, he bats lefty like all the rest of 'em (except Kike.)

[moonslav59]

Don't look now, but Cordero is over .800 (.817)

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

After giving up HR's to Dalbec and Cordero in the same inning, Zimmerman was immediately put on suicide watch by the O's manager.

[vegasbob]

Don't look now, but Cordero is over .800 (.817)

 

And is showing that he can wait and be selective, then hit the ball hard. He really could be taking long term steps towards being a hitter

[vegasbob]

Devers needs to slow down and begin slapping singles and doubles like Boggs did (LOL), these long balls into the bleachers only score occasionally

[vegasbob]

Dalbec studying video on the bench , next to Devers, saying "Look at mine, Raffy, look at my HR"

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

DEVERS DEliVERS! With JD being an on-base machine, maybe Devers and JD should switch places in the line-up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Zimmerman definitely hasn't gotten over the last inning.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Renteria made the last out for the Cards in that final game of the '04 WS, and he was wearing #3 on his jersey.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I wonder when the last time the 7-8-9 batters hit HR's in the same game for the SOX?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

7-8-9-1-2 adds up to 5 dingers.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It's Han Solo Day at Fenway.

[Jasonbay44]

JD might not be the fastest guy or the best fielder but I feel like I seen him hustle more than almost anyone.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

deVAZtating!

[vegasbob]

JD might not be the fastest guy or the best fielder but I feel like I seen him hustle more than almost anyone.

 

A true professional in his contract year, saying he would like to stay in Boston

[Bellhorn04]

Vazquez is on fire. There's one you couldn't see coming.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

JD might not be the fastest guy or the best fielder but I feel like I seen him hustle more than almost anyone.

 

Yup; he and JBJ always bust it running to 1st.

[vegasbob]

Anyone think this game is over yet ? Pivetta can't go much further , so it's back to the pen soon

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, the SOX FO offered Bogey 24 million per year for 9 years. On what planet is that considered a disgusting offer?

A seasoned Red Sox fan doesn't think very many leads are safe until the game's over.

That's pretty big news. Where did you hear this?
