Kluber vs Falter

 

Falter has faltered a lot (0-5) so far this season. Let's add to his falters.

Falter is LH, so there's that.

 

Sox just need to continue Klubbing the ball.

 

This game will be televised on FOX.

 

Go SOX!

I see what you did with the Fox and Sox thing. Innovative. If you get the 8th out of Kluber , you should be HoF bound.

[Maxbialystock]

Kluber and Falter are a pretty good matchup. It helps Philly that Falter is a lefty, which produced this Sox lineup--

 

Refsnyder DH

Verdugo RF

Turner 1B

Devers 3B

Kike SS

Duran CF

Arroyo 2B

Tapia LF

McGuire C

If Kluber goes 8, I'll be renegotiating my contract with Bloom.

This is why the sooner Duvall comes back the better.

Meh. If Duvall had stayed, we would never have rediscovered Duran.

Good point. We lost a Duvall, but we gained a Duran. In about 4 weeks the SOX will have both. You can't have too much hitting.

Hicks from the Yankems makes JBJ look like Ken Griffey Jr. Edited May 6, 2023 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

The Gorilla Tape ad behind home plate at Tampa's home field adds to the circus tent look of that ridiculous ballpark.

Tapia over Yoshida?? Why exactly??

[notin]

Meh. If Duvall had stayed, we would never have rediscovered Duran.

 

We might have. Duran was already on the 40 man along with NO other outfielders except Wilyer Abreu. He gets the call if any outfielders…

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Tapia over Yoshida?? Why exactly??

 

It's one of Cora's scheduled day's off.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, Bryce Harper is Masa's favorite player.

[notin]

It's one of Cora's scheduled day's off.

 

Give Tapia the day off!!

[moonslav59]

It's one of Cora's scheduled day's off.

 

He waits until a play is white hot and then rests him.

Interviewing a SS while he's on the field is a wonderful idea. From the same brilliant minds that created American Idol.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Falter has been faultless.

I like it. The alternative is listening to someone like Youk.

 

(I also liked how he described playing OF as boring. Must have been brutal before the pitch clock.)

You like it. Then I knew I was right to hate it. But we do agree on Youk.

[Tedballgame]

Let's go now.

[Tedballgame]

Youk is better than Smoltz.

[Tedballgame]

Raffy Bigstick!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

DEVERS DEliVERS!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Youk is better than Smoltz.

 

Smoltz is an arrogant A-hole.

[Tedballgame]

Huge hit by Arroyo!!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A Royal base hit. Falter is faltering.

[jad]

I TOLD them to sit Devers! I told them.

[jad]

I don't remember that you and I ever got into it, but you're probably correct.

 

But the truly astonishing thing is that there are those, apparently humans, who disagree with us about Youk.

[Tedballgame]

Keep the train moving.

[Tedballgame]

Philly fans saluted the pitcher as he was leaving with a YOUK cheer.
