  1. Yeah, that's the exact question I posed in the Pitching Staff thread.
  2. I get that, but I'm not sure it makes any sense putting Wright out there if he's not much more likely than Ortiz to score on a single and certainly more likely to screw something up.
  3. Seriously, what was gained by bringing in a guy who has never been on base in a real MLB game, and, I am guessing, is not an especially athletic runner?
  4. Here's a thought: When your #1 option to run for Ortiz is Steven Wright, maybe you should just let Ortiz run for himself?
  5. Not necessarily.
  6. Who does-JBJ...Mookie?
  7. Nothing wrong with high expectations. It's a shame so many of these players can't seem to live up to 'em...
  8. From Pete Abraham's article on last night's game: The Sox have 50 games remaining and Lovullo could soon be managing again if the Sox cannot break out of what has been several weeks of desultory play.
  9. I don't have a deep understanding of BABIP. About all I know is that the overall average in MLB is somewhere around .300 and that .350 is huge. So when a guy is at .440 it's way unsustainable and the law of averages shall smite him down.
  10. Get well Papi...don't want last night to be your swan song.
  11. That's because Buch is the starting pitcher Saturday because of Wright's injury.
  12. Well you're right of course, BABIP often just confirms what we already know, that there's no way the guy can keep it up. Leon is kind of an extreme example of it right now. Blah blah blah
  13. Wright's pinch-running adventure not only costs us at least one start from him, but it also meant that our one effective reliever tonight, Buchholz, could only throw a few pitches.
  14. And Barnes. It's like these guys still have hope of getting Farrell fired.
  15. Cheer up Max...2 runs in 4 innings isn't so bad...might still get more this inning.
  16. OK that was funny. There is actually a movie about a half-man/half-snake called 'Sssssss'.
  17. Catching a big break here...have to capitalize.
  18. Farrell has that sort of Born Loser thing going on. Any time he does something that might be questionable, he gets burned.
  19. Jesus Christ. Why didn't he let Buchholz pinch run instead of Wright? Farrell definitely has a streak of buffoonery.
  20. Leon's current BABIP is .440. Ty Cobb has the highest BABIP in history at .378. The smart money says Leon's BABIP is going down.
  21. Let's hope...
