    3 good points: great in April, rest might help (he's pitched a lot of innings), trust Cora/Bloom. That said, Andriese currently is sent to the mound with an invisible white flag of surrender sewn onto his uniform because the game is over whether the Sox are ahead or behind. ​His WAR of -.7 is lower than those of guys who are no longer on the big club--Weber, Brewer, Brice.
  2. Maxbialystock
    Completely agree. That said, the replays show him going back to 1b and camping there, so I'm guessing the 1b coach completely agreed or maybe even told him to tag up.
  3. Maxbialystock
    True. Rafi is our best hitter and has driven in a zillion runs. But this is a game thread and it's hard not to get pissed when Devers, Renfroe, and Arroyo all screw the pooch with Bogie on 2b and no one out (then 1 out, then 2 outs). All Rafi had to do was single or even move the runner to 3b.
  4. Maxbialystock
    Triple, double, then Devers, Renfroe, and Arroyo choke, choke, choke.
  5. Maxbialystock
    Renfroe too. These guys look like the kid sister in the movie A League of Their Own.
  6. Maxbialystock
    Another absolutely wretched, stupid at bat by Renfroe. He seem to think taking a ball is unmanly.
  7. Maxbialystock
    Thanks, Raffie. We did not need a foul pop.
  8. Maxbialystock
    Let's not forget they are paid by the team and the team wants Ohtani to be a superstar.
  9. Maxbialystock
    Sox get a really lucky break!!!! Vazquez wasn't on 1b when JDM hit that triple.
  10. Maxbialystock
    Sox have scored 21 runs in 6 games so far on this trip to the west coast, but 5 of those were unearned. So the hitting has been off, predictably so. The Angels team ERA to date is 4.97. So the Sox are scoring 2 runs per game below that.
  11. Maxbialystock
    That's whining, but that doesn't mean you're wrong.
  12. Maxbialystock
    Good point. Devers is pretty good at adjusting. I do not expect him to disappoint in the 2d half.
  13. Maxbialystock
    Exactly. Nice inning for Sawamura, he of the 2.57 ERA.
  14. Maxbialystock
    I meant the flip to Iglesias that started the double play.
  15. Maxbialystock
    In the old days before replays and when baserunners were allowed to destroy the the fielder touching the base, they gave that call to the fielder every time. I too think he missed the base, but I also think the Sox deserved that GIDP
  16. Maxbialystock
    Sox do not make that double play. Once again a Sox batter takes a hittable pitch, then grounds out on one out of the strike zone. Actually, the ever popular GIDP. But that kind of matches his passivity when Dalbec hit that ball of the wall and Vazquez could only get from 1b to 2b. Best ever bone head play by a Sox was at least a decade ago. Man on 2b, and the next batter hits it over the the rightfielder's head for a double or triple, but the guy at 2b was too busy sliding back into 2b because he didn't want to be doubled up! So he ends up on 2b and the batter gets a single.
  17. Maxbialystock
    Thanks for the corrections. I do remember the fly to left and do know that Hernandez is at the top of the order Renfroe 6th. Failing memory, I guess.
  18. Maxbialystock
    He sure is.
  19. Maxbialystock
    Second time that has worked. Throw high and tight to Devers, and he is done for.
  20. Maxbialystock
    That was intentional--throwing at Devers head. Twice, as it turns out.
  21. Maxbialystock
    What everything? The Sox--first Vazquez parking on 1b for what should have been a Dalbec double with Vazquez on 3d or home, then Renfroe swings at a sky high fastball for strike 3, then JDM grounding out harmlessly with 2 men on. OK. Leadoff double by Bogaerts! Can Devers redeem himself?
  22. Maxbialystock
    I thought it was pretty deflating in the top of the inning when Vazquez on first tagged up on what should have been a Dalbec double. Inexcusable. Also Renfroe's 3d swing, semi-check--at a fast ball a foot about the zone. Plus don't forget JDM grounding out harmlessly with runners on 1st and 3d.
  23. Maxbialystock
    Third time through the order. Back to back dingers, the first one after Ohtani fouled one pitch off his foot and another off his knee. This year he is clearly a better hitter than Devers, Bogaerts, or JDM.
  24. Maxbialystock
    Terrible at bat by JDM. That was in the geometric center of the strike zone. Heaney should be gone--pitch count 98. ERod to fact the 2, 3, and 4 Angles hitters.
  25. Maxbialystock
    I thought Verdugo was dead after that 1-2 count. Great at bat and rbi.
