Red Sox v Orioles March 30th

If Kluber is the SOX #3, then the SOX are in more trouble than I thought.

 

Look at it this way: Not only did Tampa decide to move on from him, but they paid good money instead to Eflin, who hasn't made more than 18 starts in any of the last three years. Eflin was also Boston's first choice before Kluber...

This has a chance to be the league's worst defensive OF.

 

I never liked moving Kike off CF for Duvall. Just get an interim shortstop…

And we could have had him had that cheapskate Henry been willing to relocate the team to Orlando…

[iortiz]

Wow! Way to kill a rally.

[illinoisredsox]

Damn shift ban. Probably a two run single last year.

[iortiz]

...and here comes Brasier.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I have confidence regarding the SOX offense. I have no confidence in the pitching or defense.

Not saying he will definitely improve, but it is one game. Right now Corbin Burnes is getting beat up by the Cubs. Not so sure he’s a #3 pitcher…

6 walks and a HBP, 2 HRs while recording 12 outs. Could long game

At least his last Cy Young Award was in this decade.

When I say the pitching, I'm mainly speaking of the starters. I believe the BP will be pretty good.

[redsoxrules]

I have no high expectations for this year so if they manage to make the playoffs it would be a win for me.

 

Our defense in the outfield is going to be one of the worst in the league if Kike stays at SS.

 

I am liking this new pitch clock thing I must say. No more pitchers funding the dog for a minute after a pitch

[iortiz]

Wow, wonder how/why Brasier made the team, again.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wow, wonder how/why Brasier made the team, again.

 

I'd call a friend, but I doubt he'd have the answer either.

[vegasbob]

The natives in Fenway are already rumbling as they see no sign of progress in building the team. Brasier at least is not disappointing, since there wasn't any expectations

[jacksonianmarch]

So that Kluber opening day bid went well I see

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yuke explained why there have been so many walks. "No control." Thank you, Captain Obvious.

[illinoisredsox]

Leave him out there and let him take the pounding.

Hey, honey, look what the cat dragged in.

[vegasbob]

I assume the Orioles turned down a Dalbec/Duran package for Ruschmann. Maybe if Bloom had thrown in Brasier ??

[jad]

Wow. Getting booed off the field on opening day. I hope BLoom and Henry (if he bothered to attend) are enjoying their lattes.

[iortiz]

Feel sorry for the people who showed up for this s***** show.

 

Btw, while Brasier has allowed 3 thus far, could be worse. Speaks volumes of this bum.

New phone. Who this?

[illinoisredsox]

I’d send Brasier out there again next inning.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Based on the forecast of 100% chance of rain on Saturday, maybe the 2nd game should be played tomorrow. Just trying to be helpful.

[jacksonianmarch]

Hey, honey, look what the cat dragged in.

 

The cat dragged in the Sox team as well. All mangled and covered in hair and s***

[Maxbialystock]

Sox already meeting expectations.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hey, honey, look what the cat dragged in.

 

Are you referring to Kluber or Jackson?

So unexpected. And look, the Yankees are the greatest team in the history of this year, too. They beat the Guy Ants.

The one who generally shows up in game threads when the Sox are losing.

 

His insight on medical issues is useful and interesting; his game thread contributions are not.
