4/25 SOX @ Cleveland 1:10PM ET

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dear OB, if the SOX lose today, they still have a winning road trip.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

McKenzie physically reminds me of Oil Can Boyd.

[mvp 78]

Would be a great time for Rafaela's first granny.

[mvp 78]

Swang through a 90mph 4 seamer middle/middle...

[Duran Is The Man]

Bobby D strikes out. can he do anything else?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Would be a great time for Rafaela's first granny.

 

Unfortunately, the SOX are a solo HR type of team.

Men on base pretty much eliminates the chance of a homer.

[mvp 78]

Bobby D strikes out. can he do anything else?

 

That's the majority of the team.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Bobby D strikes out. can he do anything else?

 

He should bat lower in the order, perhaps 10th.

Pathetic ABs by Rafaela and Duran!

[mvp 78]

Well, there's the homer. Better now than when Fry or Naylor were up.

Pathetic ABs by Rafaela and Duran!

 

I was told that Rafaela would be able to figure it out and that he always has an adjustment period when he moves levels?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, there's the homer. Better now than when Fry or Naylor were up.

 

I thought the SOX had the exclusive rights to solo HR's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

"Mr Anderson."

[mvp 78]

Chase Anderson! The big dog!

 

I got a kick out of this line from his wikipedia entry: "This consistent pitching approach has caused Anderson trouble, as his propensity for throwing fastballs down the middle of the plate has led to too many home runs by opposing batters." He led the league in HR's allowed in 2018, but has been lucky so far with the Sox.

 

I regret nothing.

So predictable after McGuire dropped the foul tip…

Q: Who bats after Dalbec?

 

A: The other team

[jgar658]

The grand slam is on Cora. He needs to develop a hook.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That's gonna leave a mark on the SOX starting pitching ERA.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

So predictable after McGuire dropped the foul tip…

 

No excuse. They practice catching foul tips all during ST.

[a700hitter]

I realize Masa is short; is it possible he's been misplaced and can't be found?

Why isn’t Masa playing against another RHP?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Q: Who bats after Dalbec?

 

A: The other team

 

Most here are surprised that Bobby's still in MLB, but no one is more surprised than Bobby himself.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Why isn’t Masa playing against another RHP?

 

Only Cora knows and he hasn't answered my calls in years.

[Old Red]

Bobby D 2 game hitting streak.

[mvp 78]

@ChrisCotillo

Abreu went to left and Refsnyder went to right to start the game. They're supposed to be swapped. It was a pitch clock violation and an automatic ball.

 

This team does the weirdest s*** sometimes.

[Old Red]

Why isn’t Masa playing against another RHP?

 

Because Raffy is DH.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Interesting at bat by Bobby. Thought he had a HR, thought he had a walk, ended with a swinging bunt base hit.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Maybe they should just walk Brennan.

[Duran Is The Man]

A: The other team

 

lolol

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Because Raffy is DH.

 

Because of frailty issues and defensive issues, the SOX are overstocked with DH's.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

With men on it may be better if Rafaela K's.
