If the league took a vote from all the second basemen who played the game, I believe that the new rule would be voted down by a landslide.... and the rule was implemented to protect them. YOTN would you call this irony?
-
Travis is going to force the issue of his promotion very soon, but dare I say it.... The roster is clogged.
-
That would be the only reason to do it, but unless he is truly injured, there is no way that Holt told Farrell that he couldn't go today.
-
Holt is red hot and he sits against a right handed pitcher while he is in the middle of his hot streak.
-
Farrell being Farrell.

I am very happy about Porcello's outing yesterday, because he did enough to win. As I posted before the game, he could give up a couple of long balls and we would still have a chance to win, and that is what he did. If I am the GM, I would nevertheless be concerned that I have a pitcher who is a sinkerball pitcher who hasn't been able to pitch down in the zone since we got him. It doesn't bode well for him.
-
i'll take a win anyway we can get it, and i fully expected him to give up a couple of long balls. It is just surprising to me that since we got him, his sinker has been a real stinker. The guy used to live low in the zone when he was a Tiger. He hasn't done that with the Sox, not even in the second half of the season last year.
-
I am not playing the "what if" game. Some people here thought that he only made a few mistakes that hurt him. I was just making the point that he left a lot of his pitches up in the zone. His pitches were up throughout the game.
-
Porcello's line was better than his pitching. He left a lot of pitches up. He only got hurt by Bautista and Donaldson. He got away with a lot of other pitches that were up.
-
A win... a series win... some exciting baseball. I like it.
-
I guess that Kimbrel will be warming behind Ross. How many runners will Farrell allow Ross in the 9th?
-
The guy is burying himself.
-
Shaw is flashing good leather at 1B too.
-
Pablo is a disgrace. But I am enjoying this team. It is showing that it has tenacity. Hopefully, Pussillo can keep the ball in the park.
-
Porcello leave way too many pitches up in the zone. He can't succeed up there.
-
Castillo is making a case for himself.
-
But his potential...
-
And there is 2. I win the bet. We can still win this game if Pussillo can stop giving up long balls. He is a bad sinkerball pitcher -- too many Home Run balls.
-
Shaw is making it such that Panda can just sit on the bench and eat.
-
But the length of the contracts is very reasonable.
-
Give him a chance to regress to the mean.
-
He was just happy that he could get back to his feet.
-
And there is 1. A Sinker ball pitcher that gives up Home Runs is bad news.
-
Under/Over for Home Runs against Porcello today is 1.5. I am going with the Over. We can win if he limits them to 2 long balls.
-
Shaw batting clean up. Interesting.
