    Makes sense to me.

    You watched the game, as did I. I think Valdez just has our number. Tonight he had 8 K's, no BB's, and gave up 5 singles and 1 run. Six days ago he also went 7 innings, also gave up 1 run, also gave up just 5 singles, but in that game had 10 K's and 2 BB's.
  3. Maxbialystock
    Perfect 3 for 3 for Dalbec of course. This time Valdez only got 8 K's, but Bobby was good for 3 of them.
  4. Maxbialystock
    I say again--assume Perez has a good start as Pivetta did 6 days ago. The Sox still lose, 2-1. Valdez is hard to beat.
  5. Maxbialystock
    Well said.
  6. Maxbialystock
    Valdez could go 7 again. Arroyo and Devers looked like it was their first AB, not their third.
  7. Maxbialystock
    Arroyo got that fat fastball down the middle and did nothing with it. So the K on the curve was inevitable.
  8. Maxbialystock
    Good K pitch by Valdez. No dishonor for Dalbec.
  9. Maxbialystock
    Andriese done good--3 innings, 1 run.
  10. Maxbialystock
    Valdez does something I have never seen a Sox pitcher do. He works the bottom of the strike zone extremely well. I've seen Sox pitchers--rarely--attempt to work the bottom of the strike zone. But I've never seen one actually do it well.
  11. Maxbialystock
    horrible at bat by Hernandez. Wrong! Dalbec--of course--had a much more horrible at bat.
  12. Maxbialystock
    I am not ready to concede that.
  13. Maxbialystock
    Andriese actually did pitch well in the third.
  14. Maxbialystock
    3d inning, 3d at bat for Altuve. My, how time flies when you're having fun.
  15. Maxbialystock
    Gotta give Cora credit. He could have brought Perez out for more punishment. Andriese ain't so hot this year, but this is the right job for him tonight. Plus he just got 2 outs in 2 hitters.
  16. Maxbialystock
    The bad news is that Perez--and the Sox--are getting killed. The good news is that, if Perez were pitching well, the Sox would still lose to Valdez. 6 days ago Valdez went 7 innings, outpitched Pivetta, and the Astros won 2-1.
  17. Maxbialystock
    Weird. The Sox seem happy to swing at almost any pitch, and the Astros sneer at even close ones.
  18. Maxbialystock
    All is not lost. Andriese is warming up.
  19. Maxbialystock
    4 outs for Perez, 4 runs for the Astros. This is getting expensive. Now 5 runs for 4 outs.
  20. Maxbialystock
    Perez definitely pitched Altuve tough. Excellent K despite the ump not giving him that strike.
  21. Maxbialystock
    OK, that time Perez got screwed. Once.
  22. Maxbialystock
    This game is all but over. Perez stinks, and Valdez looks like the same guy who shut the Sox down last time.
  23. Maxbialystock
    Love that tactic by Perez: never, ever throw a first strike pitch because the batter might hit it. Very cerebral.
  24. Maxbialystock
    Got it. Perez was just testing the waters in the 1st and was actually pretty masterful, giving up just the one run, which was actually a lucky hit. And, boy, you just know the Sox are going to hammer Valdez. Why? Because he plays for the Astros and the Sox are the good guys in this game. Go Sox! Win one for the gipper!
  25. Maxbialystock
    I get it, I really do. Plawecki and Perez want to create a masterpiece of painting the corners of the strike zone. At this rate, Perez will be good for maybe 4 innings.
