He got hurt. I guess we should just give up on anyone who gets hurt or anyone that gets hurt and happen to rely on a pitch you hate.
-
You're assuming Wright was going to continue pitching like his handful of starts this year and not his dozens of starts from recent years.
-
So is Brian Johnson.
-
It's also possible the defender can fake like he's having difficulty in order for the ump to not call the infield fly rule.
-
Damn it!
-
A hint would be for him to be called up to AAA soon, but I trust Sox management to know to do the right thing. One thing is almost certain, although Devers is not known for great D, even with the vast improvement last year, he's better than anyone we have now on D at 3rd.
-
YES! We almost have to have Devers and Travis take Moreland's (and eventually HRam's) and Pablo's places (and contracts), so we can keep as many of our young stars and vets once they reach free agency.
-
I didn't notice, if he was screaming or not. Even if he was, they might not hear him. JBJ should not be told he has to run to 1B. The other two were in a difficult position, but even little leaguers know that when the ball drops- you RUN!
-
I blame that on the Pom and Kimbrel trades. This is... Chris Freakin' Sale ...we're talkin' about!
-
Correct. That makes the deal much more appetizing, but I'm a huge JBJ fan, and I think Devers will ready by next year. There's also the financial concern for arb 4 year.
-
Even Moreland has looked bad. Bad defense sickens me.
-
What does that tell you about a team that has already demonstrated they are lacking in the fundamentals? 3 guys make mental mistakes on one play! I'm usually the last to call for a managerial change, but I'm close to being for it right now.
-
3 1/3 seasons from JBJ + 4 1/3 or more seasons from Marco + a prospect for 1/3 season from Donaldson? I wouldn't do it. We'd have to find an OF'er this winter as well. I'd give Devers a chance before we do anything major like this for a rental at 3B.
-
We might be seeing him in Boston sooner than we expected.
-
Have I ever mentioned I'm so freakin' glad we have... Chris Freakin' Sale!
-
Another example of grown men not thinking.
-
Good observations. I pretty much sucked at hitting a baseball, but loved and did very well on defense. Softball was like hitting a beach ball. I hit over .500 several seasons in slow pitch kegger leagues. My fondest memories about baseball and softball all are about big defensive plays. I really wish our Sox could field like the O's did last night-- even if just for one game. There were plays made last night that I'm not sure I ever saw a Sox player make, and I've been following them since 1972! I think we're a better on defense than we have shown, but we're a long way away from superb defense, except maybe at 2B and in CF and RF.
-
YES! Although I'm a huge Marco fan, and I've wanted him on the 25 man roster for a long time, I've been hesitant about calling for him to take Pablo's job away. You're right: he's not a 3Bman. He's trying his best, but we shouldn't get down on him for being forced to play out of position. We should also realize that, as of right now, he's no better on defense than the 2015 and 2017 Pablo showed us.
-
If Wright was not given another chance last year, we probably don't make the playoffs.
-
I'm not even close to "moving on" from Wright as a starter. I would say that when Price returns, he looks like the logical one to go to the pen.
-
Small sample size, but Marco's UZR/150 was worse than Pablo's even before last night.
-
I'm ready now!
-
Yes- true, but most of the spectacular plays last night were from 3B and CF.
-
Reminiscent of the Brooks Robinson/Paul Blair days.
-
Watching the O's defense last night was amazing. Ours was the opposite. I thought our D would look improved this year- so far not.
