    Woo came back to win 8-5. Dobbins did not do well. Hendriks walked one, but pitched a scoreless inning, again. 2 hits each by Anthony, Grissom, Thompson & Eaton. Sogard 1-2 w 2 BB. Grissom & Eaton had a BB, too. Sikes got the big hit. Both POR games rained out. GRE lost 8-2. Paez went 3 (3H, 2ER, 0BB, 3K) YRod 2-4 w BB SAL down 5-4 in the 8th. Arias is hitless for the first time, this year, but has a BB . He is up now, leading off the top of the 9th.

    Wow! FIVE! Damn, this team is on fire!
  3. moonslav59
    I think brining in Whitlock is the right call. Fingers crossed. We need this win!
  4. moonslav59
    Chase, the spoiler!
  5. moonslav59
    I agree. Maybe start a tradition where the first poster who posts on the game thread gets credit for the W or L.

    I think Casas has a hard line out, but that's about it.
  7. moonslav59
    Man, these 1-2-3 innings by our offense are brutal.
  8. moonslav59
    90 pitches in 7 IP. Can he go 9? Should he?
  9. moonslav59
    He's got a hit in every game, this year, but he is 0-3 w a BB, today. He will get one more AB in the 8th or 9th. His OPS is over 1.000, now! GRE soon?
  10. moonslav59
    Shoulda been caught, yes.
  11. moonslav59
    Nice reverse jinx!
  12. moonslav59
    Word of Story's demise may have been greatly exaggerated.
  13. moonslav59
    On paper, I did not see a single position that got worse on D from 2024 to 2025: Catcher: Wong=Wong and Narvaez> McGuire 1B: Casas=Casas 2B: Campbell (DHam/Romy)> Evaldez, Reyes, Grissom SS: Story>> Rafaela, DHam, others 3B: Bragman >>Devers LF: Duran FT> Duran, O'Neal & Ref CF: Rafaela> Duran & Rafaela RF: Abreu & O'Neal/Refsnyder= Abreu & Refsnyder Just goes to show you how "on paper" does not always equate to on the field.

    Are we turning the corner? Just 2 Ks in 15 outs. Look how this has led to much more run scoring.... NOT!
  15. moonslav59
    Soliciting funds for those in need is "fleecing?" Wow! Where is the link to "begging" JH, not that begging for charity for others is a vice. I'm fine with losing respect over cheating, but then why are you a Sox fan? We've been caught cheating several times- from players, coaches, managers to the GMs.

    That is a major shift, and when you figure in that all teams seem to be K'ing more and more, our increase has been astounding. What's worse is that our HR totals, BA, OBP and SLG are not improving by swinging more or harder. 2021>2022>2023.2024>2025 BA: .261>.258>.258>.252>.250 OBP: .328>.321>.324. >319> .330 SLG: .449>.409>.424>.423>.375 ISO: .188>.152>.166>,171>,124 It's not working- whatever we are doing. I'm not so sure we can blame "roster construction," since most of the decline is attributed to players that were on the roster in the past 2-5 years- not the newbies like Bregman, Campbell, Narvaez and Romy, Abreu and Casas, who were not playing at all or that much in 2021 and 2022 and some in 2023. For this, I can see why people want to blame the coaches and manager.
  17. moonslav59
    I'm not doubting the trend that the whole league seems to be following. Is there any team not seeing their K rate go up over the past 2-4 years? It does worry me. I miss the days of working counts, high OBPs and getting to the opp's pen by the 4th inning.
  18. moonslav59
    "Fleeced?"
  19. moonslav59
    When I look at these numbers the 16 to 3 ratio is the second thing I notice. The first is the small sample size. That being said, I suggested demoting Casas down to 6 or 7 vs R and keep platooning Romy at 1B v L.
  20. moonslav59
    GRE won 5-0 Dean 0 hits in 3 IP (4BB/5K) Mullins 2 hits in 4 IP (0BB/7K) Team: 4 hits in 9 IP (4BB/ 17Ks!!!!) Bleis 2-4 w HR. _______________ SAL got swept Gm1 3-0 Aita went 5 w 3 ER Gm 2 5-3 Arias went 2-6 on the day Arias has a hit in all 8 games played in '25 .467 BA .529 OBP .567 SLG

    And, we thought splitting with the CWS in June '24 was bad.
  22. moonslav59
    Because he is the constant, it must be his fault? He is actively sabotaging the defense?
  23. moonslav59
    The thing is defense is supposed to be the easiest to equate on paper to on the field, and yet this team looks worse than last year's team. Bregman>Devers Story> committee Campbell> EValdez, Grissom & Co. Rafaela FT in CF> 2024 Duran FT in LF> 2024 Narvaez> McGuire
  24. moonslav59
    Good correction on 2020. It was still JH & Co's fault.
  25. moonslav59
    A very sad day for the Sox and their fans. Too bad Fitts did not get the win. He looked good. Not much can be said about anyone else looking good.
