    I thought he should gotten to Grossman's ball too.
  2. a700hitter
    I would.
  3. a700hitter
    Pace means nothing.
  4. a700hitter
    Pipp
  5. a700hitter
    The Yankees with a loss on the books already tonight.
  6. a700hitter
    GM's don't normally like to eat crow.
  7. a700hitter
    Yep, but there is no undoing that mistake.

    Should Dave pick up Melky Cabrera and try to catch lightning in a bottle? He has been brutal this season, but he has had some very good seasons with the bat. Edit: And as brutal as he has been, he is still OPSing 100+ points more than Swihart.

    I wouldn't have used him in that instance unless he desperately needed the work. I am sure that cora didn't want it to turn into a 30+ pitch outing. When a guy like Kimbrel needs work in 4+ run differential game, because rust is setting in, I would let the leave the previous pitcher in the game until he gets 1 out and bring in Kimbrel to get the final 2 outs. They should limit the possibility of running up 30+ pitches in a low leverage situation.
  10. a700hitter
    I think we are at that point.
  11. a700hitter
    My recollection is that he is a terrible bunter.
  12. a700hitter
    And he is still a better hitter than our 2 catchers, Swihart and Bradley. There was no reason to keep Swihart who can't play a position or hit. And he has no long term role on this team. in retrospect, the correct move was to DFA Swihart and try to get something back in a trade and then to DFA Hanley when Pedroia returns.

    The rest of the lineup is almost entirely inept.

    A "Yankees suck" chant just broke out in Arizona at a Dbacks - Mets game. It warmed my heart a bit.
  15. a700hitter
    I don't see room for him in the rotation at this juncture, but he has shown himself to be valuable out of the Pen. Any word on Pedroia?
  16. a700hitter
    Each of us has our way of dealing with the negative emotions of losing. Most people blame some combination of the players, coaches, manager or umpires. You on the other hand can always be counted on to insult TalkSox members. I hope you feel better.
  17. a700hitter
    He hit the Yankees very well this season. He hit some big bombs.
  18. a700hitter
    It is proving to be a bad move.
  19. a700hitter
    He's in budget purgatory with no hope of seeing the Majors.
  20. a700hitter
    Add that to the fact that Swihart has no business on an MLB roster and you have a dept problem
  21. a700hitter
    Our hitting is a mess. The bottom third of the order is killing this team. They never step up when the big boys go silent.
  22. a700hitter
    The Kimbrel thing is really a non-issue. Porcello, Hembree and barnes couldn't keep the lead through 8, so Cora's misuse of Kimbrel wasn't an issue.
  23. a700hitter
    Not locking down last night's game after knocking out Paxton was a bad omen for the remainder of the series.
  24. a700hitter
    True, but if and when Pedey comes back, the roster move should be a foregone conclusion.
  25. a700hitter
    Ben knew nothing about pitching.
