    Thus did I call this the "no name offense," but no one on talksox was buying.
  2. Maxbialystock
    You betcha.
  3. Maxbialystock
    Holy mackerel, Andy. Casas just hit a 2 run dinger in the 9th!!!!! Is Cora lucky or a genius? He starts Casas and benches Devers in a game he really wants to win.
  4. Maxbialystock
    Cora wants this one. First Winck, then Martin, now probably Jansen for the save.
  5. Maxbialystock
    Of course he did. We know this because I've just redefined "slump" as two games in a row. Yoshida is officially in a career-ending two game hitting slump. Williams hit .254 in 1959, age 41--pretty much a season long slump given his career BA of .344. Two years before .388 at age 39. A year later at age 42 he hit .316 with 29 dingers in 390 at bats.

    Sox have 3 runs on 4 hits (1 double) tonight. RBI's by Tapia, Kike, and Duran.
  7. Maxbialystock
    The Braves pitchers have just destroyed Yoshida in these two games.
  8. Maxbialystock
    I assume your use of the word "talking" is intended as sarcasm.
  9. Maxbialystock
    Winck gets three in the 8th!!!
  10. Maxbialystock
    Devers as a defensive sub actually makes sense.
  11. Maxbialystock
    Boy do I hope you're right and can then tell me to stuff it.
  12. Maxbialystock
    Buckle down Winckowski, buckle down.
  13. Maxbialystock
    Well Dalbec can do just about everything. I see only two real weaknesses in his game: hitting and fielding. He is, on the other hand, pretty competent in the on deck circle, in the dugout, and getting to and from the ballpark.
  14. Maxbialystock
    Tapia gets a double off exactly the same pitch Devers swung at and completely missed.
  15. Maxbialystock
    Maybe that's why Devers didn't start tonight. He looked absolutely lost in that at bat.
  16. Maxbialystock
    So much for my belief that Wong can hit.
  17. Maxbialystock
    Yep. I do like Houck, but Bello has better stuff.
  18. Maxbialystock
    Actually, the history of Sox pitching suggests that at no level in the Sox system do they know how to improve pitchers, especially with respect to command.
  19. Maxbialystock
    Bello has good stuff and is a battler, more so than Sale who is too easily rattled. But Bello does not yet have the command he needs. To his credit, he does try to get low strikes, but tonight a lot of them ended up balls. This was a very good start against a good Braves lineup. Now let's see if the bullpen butchers it.
  20. Maxbialystock
    That sweeper (or whatever) sure had Wong's number. Three straight swings and misses.
  21. Maxbialystock
    Duran delivers!!!!
  22. Maxbialystock
    Duran caught a break on that 2d ball--clearly in the strike zone.
  23. Maxbialystock
    Duran struggled yesterday just like Yoshida and Devers did. Time to deliver.
  24. Maxbialystock
    While I agree in principle that creating names for no reason is silly, I don't thing those big sweeping breaking balls are anything like the old slider, which was/is high velocity with a sharp, but not huge break. Looks like Atlanta has Yoshida's number.
  25. Maxbialystock
    That's what the big payroll is for--to hire good pitching.
