  1. I was thinking this when they mentioned speeding up the game. This ball is supercharged. Hanley has already had a couple of shots over 440. One I think went 460. At least he is a fairly sizable guy. Beni is a squirt and he hit one 438 and last night Bradley (another small guy) hit one 440. This is a golf ball.
  2. It is actions like this why I think he has a low voltage brain.
  3. Yep, that is why I didn't remember the reason, because it made no sense. Is this poor kid going to make another start or is Farrell going to stick Price in between Porcello and Sale the next time around. I can't think of a single good reason how giving this kid a start would solidify our rotation.
  4. It is a thing. I hear the lantern jawed doofus talking about it. I don't remember the reason for it.
  5. This separating Sale and Porcello nonsense was not an urgent matter. They could have done that another time when they had a better pitcher to take the turn.
  6. I don't want to credit him with coming up with a strategy and then executing it.
  7. Just turn around and throw the ball over the fence. Speed up the game.
  8. This kid is not a major leaguer. What were they thinking? They should have given Johnson another shot.
  9. This guy is canon fodder.
  10. ? Recently?
  11. The pen did a great job last night-- even Abad has not been bad lately. I like what I have seen from Robby Scott so far.
  12. I think Drew's unemotional demeanor would not have been held against him if he strapped on the gear for 150 games/year. He missed large chunks of time, so it became a target. No one criticized his fielding because he didn't dive for balls. He got to almost everything standing up, but he did make his share of sliding catching. I really don't recall people screaming that he should be diving around the field. The unemotional demeanor was his problem when he started missing games.
  13. Whether the idea emanated with LL or not, a truly effective GM would be able to make an effective case to convince him otherwise. It is on the GM's no matter which way you slice it.
  14. I'd prefer Moustakas. I think he is the better fielder, and he is learning to hit a little bit.
  15. A grind it out hard fought win. Very satisfying to see the team fight like this and come up a winner.
  16. LOL!!! That would be motivation to win, big time!
  17. AB is going to go 0 for 7 games if he doesn't get a hit here.
  18. That is a must for this lineup.
  19. We are dead offensively. Our only legit offensive threat is Betts, and he bats lead off. We have Bogaerts and Pedroia who are singles hitters, an the rest flat out stink. Without Hanley in the lineup, the lineup is pathetic.
  20. Those were three completely depressing seasons.
  21. First DP that Leake got all season. He faced the right team to get one ... or two.
