    That isn't a strike on Judge. That's down. This guy is bad
  2. jacksonianmarch
    Gardy party!!!!!!
  3. jacksonianmarch
    Brasier coming in. Gardner at the dish. Brasier is a ground ball master, so Gardy better run out of the box and get us a run
  4. jacksonianmarch
    Tauchman got a sweet call and Urshela got hosed.

    Workman struggling

    He will definitely go on the IL, I just wonder whether he packs it in and gets the Prince Fielder or Jacoby Ellsbury treatment.

    Very impressive start from Happ. Outside of a couple missed locations, he was above the zone or in with his heat and down with his breaking stuff. He has made a lot of money jamming righties or getting them to leave the zone. He is usually pretty tough on lefties with the breaking ball. Kahnle looked good coming in. Frazier drove in another run. Time to see if we can get a couple off the sox pen

    No word other than pain, but I think everyone, even the Yankee fans, don't want to see that. I said before that the injury was career threatening and I wonder if the last viewing of Dustin is limping off the field after skying to RF in Yankee Stadium
  9. jacksonianmarch
    Great start from Happ. The 3 runs hurt, but the 2 run homer was a good pitch hit to the cheap part of the park. After that, he was basically unhittable. Good to see. Eovaldi has outpitched him to this point
  10. jacksonianmarch
    It was down and in and he inside outed it to the RF seats
  11. jacksonianmarch
    Location to Moreland and JD was bad. The HR from Vasquez wasn’t a bad pitch
  12. jacksonianmarch
    Happ is all about location. When he’s up and out of the zone with the hard stuff and down in the zone with the slow stuff, he’s baffling. He has the problem of bringing the fastball down and the breaking stuff up as of now
  13. jacksonianmarch
    can I go negative numbers on this poll?
  14. jacksonianmarch
    I thought the same thing and was really hoping Gardner's drilling didn't incite something. Don't wake the sleeping giant. I wouldn't retaliate at all, even if Eovaldi hits 4 guys today
  15. jacksonianmarch
    If Erod has his fastball and is locating it, there is no reason for him to give another look the first time through the order barring a long at bat

    or when a player you watched as a kid passes away of an old man's disease at an old age

    Analytics treat people like robots. The rest through ST is a very “save the battery life” kind of move.
  18. jacksonianmarch
    So the analytics department, which runs the team, just came around to Cora on this? No f***ing way. This is an organizational decision. I have no doubt
  19. jacksonianmarch
    Voits pace hasn’t been great. He’s reached base 25 games in a row dating back to last year, but he’s picket fencing it. His OPS isn’t solid right now, yet his at bats are good and he’s using the whole field. I expect better things from him as the weather warms. He’ll probably be a .260/30/100 guy for us and that’s be awesome, clearly assuming good health and continued playing time. That’s isn’t a given right now with Andujar barely throwing. If Andujar is cleared to swing but isn’t allowed to make long throws, he’ll likely supplant Voit and push him to the DH/ platoon role which would limit his numbers

    Of course he’s going to preach the philosophy because he was told to. Management is involved in EVERYTHING these days from lineups down to pitching moves. Cora did not come up with this on his own, as a matter of fact, I bet he was initially against it as it leaves your squad unprepared for the regular season.
  21. jacksonianmarch
    As much as I’d love that scenario, it isn’t happening. You guys will be in the playoff picture by Memorial Day. There’s just too much talent. The Sox problem is that from management down to the players, they got cocky. They decided to walk through ST, do the celeb touring rounds, and basically consider the regular season as a prep course for the playoffs. Heck, JD was quoted as saying it’s hard to get excited when you already know which teams are gonna make the playoffs. You cannot discredit your opponents as a whole at the big league level. The Sox have done that and are learning a valuable lesson. My bet is they turn it on come May 1, after the starters get the innings they sorely needed in March, then are back to .500 at Memorial Day or sooner
  22. jacksonianmarch
    Maybe he would. The problem is, he seems to have command at lower velocities and cannot command the upper eschelon velo. Maybe it comes, maybe it doesn’t. Sale would need to pump the 97 mph heat at the corners to be ace like again. Right now, Chris “Freaking” Sale freaking sucks.
  23. jacksonianmarch
    If you guys think Cora came up with this rest idea on his own, I’ve got a swamp to sell you. This was upper level management selling the fan base on an organizational decision and letting Cora take the credit or blame dependent on the outcome.
  24. jacksonianmarch
    Sale should be upset. He gave up 4 runs in 5 innings to a lineup that had Austin Romine, Gio Urshela and Michael Tauchman in it. He didn’t get beat by an offensive juggernaut here. Our 8 position players on the DL could lead an offense to the playoffs. If Sale faced our real lineup, he’d have been out in the 3rd
  25. jacksonianmarch
    I listened to the Dombrowski interview and he said that there were many different opinions on the Swihart situation, but it "finally became my decision" and he cut Swihart. That is a comment that reeks of discord in the front office
