  1. I'd prefer to go for a big bomber. I like the idea of J.D. Martinez. I have been watching a lot of Arizona's games the last couple of months. Goldy is a huge offensive force, but J.D. has scary power.
  2. We can use the spark to the lineup. It is great that the team has picked up for his absence and Pedroia's absence/slump with a winning streak. When they return and get back on track, we should put up runs more consistently.
  3. I thought the same thing. Moreland picks that ball more often than not -- maybe 8 times out of 10. It appeared to be a short hop not a mid hop that is harder to handle. And it seems to me that over the last 2-3 games that we are getting an inordinate number of plays at 3B. Maybe it just seems that way because I am a bit nervous about the kid's fielding. Last night, he got several plays and handled them all flawlessly except for the very minor miscommunication with Pom on a dribbler, but no one had a play on that.
  4. And an argument can be made that consistently good hitters don't exist. They all slump.
  5. He may be the best value in Baseball, and we got him for a kid with TJ surgery who will not get to MLB until 2020 or 2021 if ever.
  6. The problem in 2015 was the pitching. The mantra hear by me hear on TalkSox in discussions about the 2015 team was "It's the Pitching Stupid."
  7. But he can't hit either. I think his OPS is in the 500's
  8. Another Extra Inning win and Barnes didn't blow a 1 run lead!!! This team is a determined bunch of smurfs.
  9. They are available on every floor in every dorm building... right?
  10. You have to be kidding!!
  11. 1 run lead is not Barnes-proof.
  12. There were times that you were banned from making Game Threads.
  13. Pedroia still slumping.
  14. or the little hit.
  15. Todd Walker may be the best of the fill-ins for Remy.
  16. Oddly, Yankee fans are much better losers than winners. The opposite of us Sox fans.
  17. If Price sees this, he will beat up an announcer.
  18. Yes, absolutely.
  19. Is Pedroia's nose so sore that he can't hit? WTH!! He should be playing. Yaz would have played with a hurt nose and a case of the runs.
  20. What is it with this guy? The rest of the league kicks the crap out of him and he looks like Jim Palmer against us.
  21. THis was an impressive come from behind victory in a game that looked like an early blowout. Add to the comeback that they won the game in extra innings on the road. These are the type of games that good teams win. We don'twin these games as a function of the god of randomness. This team wants these games more than their opponents want them. They are a bunch of punchless little smurfs, but they are stubborn determined smurfs. Benintendi was not having a good AB when he got the game winning hit. He was out of sync in that AB, but he did just enough to get it in play and get a seeing eye base hit through the hole. It barely rolled into the OF, but it was a line drive in the Box Score.
  22. Putting up an injured Hanley shows that they have no faith in Young.
  23. I guess an injured Hanleyvis better than a healthy Marrero.
  24. Rare HR power from Xander to tie it.
