5/01 Jays @ SOX 7:10PM ET

[moonslav59]

The guy can hit. Defense needs work, but 2 run homers will cover up some other deficiencies.

 

Maybe he ends up at DH with Turner moving to 1B, at least on a platoon.

 

vs RHPs

1B Casas

DH Turner

2B Valdez

 

vs LHPs

1B Turner

DH Valdez

2B Arroyo

[moonslav59]

The play at second could not have been more routine, Valdez could have taken a nap after catching the throw-in. If the Sox lose, it's on Enmanuel

 

Despite the jack?

[vegasbob]

Martin is pitching up in the zone, could get hit and not yet looking good on his control

[vegasbob]

Despite the jack?

 

Moon, it's a running sarcastic discussion with Max who felt it was necessary to remind me that we have differing opinions on a play

[moonslav59]

Phew!

Okay. I just joined. As I fast forward the game and get caught up live, I sometimes join the game thread.

 

It would be nice if Valdez could field a position just average.

[Jasonbay44]

Lucky to get out of that with 0 runs

[Jasonbay44]

Hell of a play by Kike

[vegasbob]

Kike with a big play from SS to get the leadoff man

 

Without that play, Blue Jays have a run

 

F'ing Kike cannot play worth a damn

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

There's a web gem!

[Jasonbay44]

Then Kike gives it right back

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX have 18 E's so far and Kike has 9 of them.

[Jasonbay44]

Bichette has 5 hits…

[vegasbob]

Wink doesn't seem to have anything so far

[redsoxrules]

Kike is NOT a SS

[redsoxrules]

Wink doesn't seem to have anything so far

 

To be fair he should have 2 outs with no runs in.

[Tedballgame]

Kike giveth and Kike taketh away.

[redsoxrules]

Ffs Kike

[Tedballgame]

Can we please get a SS

[a700hitter]

Kike giveth and Kike taketh away.

He taketh more than he giveth.

[Jasonbay44]

What the hell Kike…

[vegasbob]

I grant you the boy made a play, but then completely messed up the conclusion of the inning. Kike is a butcher at SS. 10 errors to date ( May 1) Never liked him Edited May 2, 2023 by vegasbob

[Tedballgame]

This feels bad

Kike is not a SS. He can play there, and make some plays, because he’s athletic, but he also going to make lots of errors.

[moonslav59]

Kike giveth and Kike taketh away.

 

Where?

 

Who makes trades in May?

 

We have 3 SSs on the IL, with none due back very soon.

[vegasbob]

Yoshi tracking that pop fly used the only english he knows to ward Kike away, " GTFOH"

[redsoxrules]

Can we please get a SS

 

We had one but you know, genius Henry and Bloom f***ed that up

[d-money]

Saw it coming from a mile away.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Maybe Kike should make all his throws from his knees.

[moonslav59]

It is sickening to watch an excellent defensive CF'er play like a clown at SS.

 

With 3 SSs on the IL, we have very few options.
