8/30 @ Chicago White Sox
Bellhorn04 replied to Thunder's topic in Mike Grace Memorial Game Thread Forum
That .482 OBP boggles the mind. -
Those old Padres uniforms took the approach that if you're gonna go ugly, there's no sense in going halfway.
-
Now that's just mean. Guy had a pretty good career for the most part.
-
Well, Ty did string together 5 or 6 scoreless innings!
-
Kinsler and Pedroia are very similar, although I suppose the girls find Kinsler better-looking...
-
You are full of tricky questions, sir.
-
Should Jackie Bradley Jr be traded?

Kinsler is still a very good ballplayer IMO. And with some postseason experience and good postseason numbers. Happy to have him.
-
We'll see. Best I can do for a decisive call.
-
He's sitting out of tonight's minor league game because of soreness. Not a promising development.
-
Clay Buchholz - Is he worth the 2016 option?
Bellhorn04 replied to Slasher9's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
August was not a bad month for Clay: 5 games 36 IP (7.2 per start) 1.25 ERA .97 WHIP 4.67 K/BB -
LOL you're too easy to spot Babe. One of your most obvious tells is that habit of firing short snarky questions.
-
'Sometimes' is a big word there.
-
Baseball isn't totally random by any means, but there really is a big pile of randomness at work. Last night's game for example. When it was 4-1 it looked like a nice little sleepytime win. If someone had told you then it would end up 8-7 Sox in a walkoff you would have said they were out of their f***ing mind LOL
-
That's a big part of it, yes. But we have also often seen the Red Sox offense shut down by some relative unknown that leaves people scratching their heads and referring to the pitcher sardonically as 'Cy'. Just the other day it was 'Cy Beeks'. Even a relative unknown can be tough on the days and nights his stuff is at his best.
-
As you said, pitching at the MLB level is just very difficult. If you throw too many pitches in the middle of the plate they get hammered. If you nibble at the corners too much you issue walks and throw a lot of pitches. Bottom line, for all the problems, the Red Sox still have the 4th best ERA in MLB, and the second-best park-adjusted ERA+. It's all relative...

So we're onto the topic of momentum now, I see. The way I see it, you can find a lot of examples where a team seems to have momentum. But you can also find a lot of examples of apparent momentum coming to a screeching halt. Therein lies the rub, as Shakespeare said.
-
Do you double as MADSTORK by any chance?
-
Workman?
-
You the man.
-
I'll have to go with Slasher on this one. 18 AB's is only 4 games.
-
Cutting a steak with a spoon might cause issues too. Best thing would be to cut it up for him like a little kid.
-
I give a s*** and I'm sure others do. Personally I only start to pay serious attention when a guy is lined up to appear in an actual game. It can be exhausting following all the injury updates this time of year.
-
Somebody has to ask it... You're saying Sale has never shaken off a single pitch call in his career?
-
Tater Time with Larry!
