    Hopefully Ortiz gets a 1st inning shot with runners on. Buch should not need much against the WS. If they are an impatient team generally, they should really tie themselves in knots against Buch the way he has been pitching.......strikes in ugly places for the hitters.

    Now that I look at it, I guess Salty's OBP for last year started low and stayed there. First half, .289.....second half fell to .286, his final OBP for the year. So at least last year, he may never have even reached .300

    You would almost expect a catcher to be a BB, heat seeking missile or at least trying to be.....really trying to "work the walk". Don't really expect Salty to pull a Kelly Shoppach and dive into advancing curve balls to get to 1st base but would like to see Salty at least try to work the walk more often. I guess we can say that at a .346 OBP so far this year, he has improved on last year's number. But historically he always seems to slip below .300 for a full season. I guess we will see.

    Hope you are right Station..actually hope he starts hitting and if he doesn't, hope he gets moved off lead off.

    Hit and a walk probably earned Ells another month at the top of the lineup.....I don't think it should but it probably will.

    Seems to me we had some chances to score in this game once Chicago's bullpen was in the game. Just did not get it done.

    I don't know if they use exactly the same data and I do not even look at game day. But if you remember the 4/24 Oakland Boards game thread we had a similar discussion and you had gone to the game day date and reported that game day had that pitch as middle in. When you look at the pitchfx date for the same pitch, they clearly have the same pitch off the plate inside. Maybe they are not using the same exact system or the same date into the system. You do have to wait often as much as a full day for the pitchfx data.

    Jeez that came right back into the catcher's hands.

    I like pitchfx. You have to wait for it but I think their's is the more accurate pitch data.

    That is true and the other was not a swing that I can rationalize in any way.

    That was hanger though, not a rising FB. Rising FB and I would agree with you. Hanging breaking ball in the middle of the plate about in inch high...WMB should have crushed that. And One inch of break more on that pitch...and we would be screaming bloody murder if Will left his bat on his shoulders. I would have preferred the BB in retrospect but I can rationalize Will not letting that pitch go by in that situation.
  12. jung
    Can't complain about WMB swinging at that...just wish he had hit it!

    Bruins just went up 2-1 with 1:36 left in the 3rd

    O's walk off...Gee isn't that just toooooooo bad.

    It would have been a shame to have seen Felix pitch what I really do think were his best four consecutive innings and then come out and get clobbered in the seventh. He was faltering. Deserved to come out on a positive note. The way he was going, Farrell would not have given him more than a baserunner in the 7th anyway.

    Kinda' hot and cold for Felix tonight...Super for the first four...maybe best four consecutive innings of his year so far...Last two innings....Super lucky.

    Funny how the fans were sort of excited but Dunn knew without even looking that he had not gotten enough of that ball to do anything.
  18. jung
    Boy Felix is just dying to hang one here. Very close
  19. jung
    Staggering...an Ells BB

    Wells may in fact think this is his last chance and might also be invigorated by the idea of turning it around as a Yankee. Overbay and Hafner lovin' that short porch in that fraud of a ML ballpark.
  21. jung
    He was hanging his secondary pitches as well that inning. If he is going to try to pitch up there he will need to ask Salty to borrow his catcher's gear to keep from getting killed by a liner coming back at him.
  22. jung
    Felix suddenly up in the zone with everything
  23. jung
    God damn it......Boy that pitch looked cherry as soon as it left his hand.

    I would love it if broadcast crews just pulled back and gave us a pre-bat look at the shifting fielders as the hitter was coming up to bat. They really don't do anything with the time other than give us a shot of the hitter taking practice swings. I would love to see a quick view of the fielders moving as the hitter is coming to the plate. We would miss the pitch by pitch movement but we would still see where they started with the count 0-0.

    Did anybody notice if the WS had the infield shifted over for Ortiz on that last at bat or did the 2nd baseman just range over there for that one?
