May 12th Cardinals @ Red Sox

[moonslav59]

Paxton finally gets his first start for the Sox.

 

Wainwright gets his 392nd with the Cards. (He's had 9 seasons with 31 or more GS'd, including 2019, 2021 and 2022. (He had 10 starts in 2020.)

 

We'll see the dynamic lefty line-up for this one.

[Maxbialystock]

8 righty bats in Cards lineup—including 2 switch hitters.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Guffman has finally arrived. Was it worth the wait? Stay tuned.

Dugo

Masa

Turner

Devers

Duran

Casas

Kike

I have Paxton down for about 3 innings and 3 runs. Knowing it will take a few starts to get in full time pitching mode. Just don't get blasted in the first.

 

I do note that he will try it tonight left-handed, so there's that

[vegasbob]

2 outs, 2 strike count and Paxton shows the Red Sox way is imprinted. Most of his pitches have been up and that result was somewhat predictable

[d-money]

Nice start Paxton . Smh

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Paxton's arm is fine, but, as expected, location in strike zone is off. All in all, better than I expected.

Btw, Wainwright has been a terrific pitcher his whole career.

[vegasbob]

Why doesn't NESN run the Red Sox Foundation promo during the inter-inning breaks instead of during what passes for game action?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

After only the 2nd inning and Wainwright's already made two best friends.

[d-money]

The cardinals are not a good team. Gotta find a way and hit this team.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Goldschmidt may be the best RH hitter in MLB.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The cardinals are not a good team. Gotta find a way and hit this team.

 

 

Actually, they are better than their current record and will probably end up making the PO's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another shite HP chUMPIRE. They gotta million of 'em.

[d-money]

Wainwright is close to 50 lol. He has been around it seems for like 30 years. You gotta hit this guy i am sorry.

[d-money]

You really think so? Umm i don’t know.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

DE, er, Duran Delivers!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great play by the ballgirl, NOT.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Kike could have saved the ballgirl's mistake, but, of course, he didn't.

[Hugh2]

Told y’all not to freak out on those bad AAA starts. Never know what guys are working on.

 

Paxton has only made one mistake tonight, which one can be forgiven for after not pitching in two years.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Valdez honors his family!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

WONG smashes wainwRIGHT!

[Hugh2]

Connor wong has surprising pop. Doesn’t look like a typical power hitter but he can hit ‘em far for a littler guy.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If NESN put out a video of the season so far, it would have to be called PLEASANT SURPRISES.

[moonslav59]

Just got caught up on delay.

 

Nice game from Paxton, but I'd yank him.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A very good debut by Paxton. I doubt anyone here expected this performance.

[d-money]

Just crappy pitching.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wink has been no mystery so far. I guess he was due like most relievers are.

[Maxbialystock]

Just got caught up on delay.

 

Nice game from Paxton, but I'd yank him.

 

Agree, but it turns out Winck wants to give the game away.

[d-money]

This guy is imploding.
