Huge game for Devers already

DEVERS DEliVERS again! The SOX KEPT the right guy.

Good golly, miss molly!!! Two dingers by Devers, who very possibly came to play tonight.

 

Check back to the first post, mine, in which I said the Padres will have a big edge in pitching tonight.

Huge game for Devers already

 

Just stopped by to say "Hello" to his ole pal.

[iortiz]

Devers is very good at baseball, but if he were bit more consistent, he would be a HOF.

[iortiz]

BTW Paxton seems to be a reality.

But we all knew that, didn't we?

 

I really, really like Bogaerts, who was in on two of the Sox World Series wins. But the money was too much for a guy his age.

I'd rather have one Devers to two Bogeys.

We gave the $$$ to the right guy.

I was one of the few against his resigning. Looking Story and Bogaerts today, I regret a bit. Story has turned into a totally disaster. Xander at least is most of the times healthy. Thing with Xander was always his glove.

Since age 22, his "off season" was the short 2020 year, and he still hit .793.

 

In the other 3 seasons, he's been between .879 and .916. He's at .876, now.

 

He can get streaky, but overall, his seasons look remarkably consistent.

Check his seasons with the SOX. I'd say he's been pretty damn consistent. I also believe he's leading the league in RBI.

Oops! MOON beat me to it.

Paxton is pitching well. So far so good despite giving up a HR.

He's been throwing an 'easy' 96.

If he were bit more consistent He would be a 1.000 hitter year after year. I see THAT Pujols potential in this kid.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Engel is the Padres' version of Kike.

[Nick]

Wow horrible at bat from #9 hitter.

Devers already has very good numbers. It’s out of a question. I’m talking about elite numbers. He has that potential. The way I see it, is that he swings at everything which is a strength and a weakness at the same time. If he were bit more selective, he would be at least 50 points higher IMO. We are talking about little adjustments here.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX knock out another starter early. They're pretty good at that.

If anyone messes with Devers' approach at the plate, that person should be deported immediately.

I'm really missing your point.

 

You want him to change?

[moonslav59]

IMO, he's as good as he is, because of his approach. I wouldn't ask for anything different.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That may have been the hardest ball Devers has hit tonight.

[Nick]

Xander only has 16 RBI hitting in the clean up spot.

 

His HR total last year was underwhelming for a guy looking for a big payday.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, Devers at age 26 is 5 years younger than Judge.

[moonslav59]

That may have been the hardest ball Devers has hit tonight.

 

He could be 3 for 3, if he just was more disciplined.

 

(Just kidding.)

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

xander only has 16 rbi hitting in the clean up spot.

bingo!

[moonslav59]

I'm expecting him to get better and better, which is scary as hell.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dugo continues to catch everything he can reach.
