  1. He did much more than other team owners did to support and further worthy causes, while his sins were comparable to those of every other owner.
  2. I am also haunted by the millions in philanthropic donations by the Yawkeys.
  3. It would still be a weak lineup.
  4. He was doing his running and staying in shape. he should have been able to play 2 games in a row.
  5. A lineup with Moreland hitting cleanup is a weak lineup.
  6. He does have the post season failures hanging over his head. That has been the one negative on his resume.
  7. Your vilification was misplaced. Players have bad days. They are human. It is the manager's job to know when a player doesn't have it. That one was on Cora.
  8. It was a slight uppercut 4-8 degrees. It was about making contact not about launching the ball. His theory was that since the pitch was on a downward trajectory that a slight uppercut had the bat in the hitting plane for the maximum time. In his book My Turn At Bat, he mentioned that to hit the eephus pith that you should increase the angle to about 15 percent.
  9. I don't understand all the negativity about Price. This guy is a great pitcher. He has been an elite talent and performer his entire life. Were are lucky to have him taking the ball every 5th day. Hopefully, he stays healthy. I don't shudder at his contract at all if he stays healthy.
  10. Swihart looks like a prime athlete. He is just not a baseball player.
  11. Farrell robbed 2 years from Wright's career with his buffoonery.
  12. Holt brings a lot of good things to this team.
  13. Just drive the ball somewhere. The dead zone is up next.
  14. Bases loaded no one out and Holt batting.
  15. Are there reports on Mookie’s BP session?
  16. i feel the same way about Sandler, but attributes it to a generational thing.
  17. The old Dodger fans used to tell me about him. He won a batting title in 1941 and got the Dodgers to the World Series. Unfortunately, he ran into a lot of OF walls and knocked himself cold a few times, ruining his career. He was supposedly a great fielder as well and as fast as hell.
  18. Moncada is a butcher in the field.
  19. Agreed. Devers has good ABs today. Cora should have saved Nunez to bat for the pathetic Blake.
  20. Bradley has hit the ball twice and been hit by it once, so there may be progress. They just can’t let Blake hit again.
