I said one, right? I was just going for a light hearted comment.
-
One downside of tonight. July now is over.
-
I think if you added up the exit velocities of the hits by Abreu, Yoshida and Duran, they wouldn’t total how hard hit Duran’s RBI out was.
-
Yoshida got all of that one.
-
Cedanne got all of that one.
-
Agree; he leads the team I think, or at least 2nd playing maybe 1/2 the time.
-
He has 2 options left. They could send him to Worcester; not sure I'd want him around the kids though.
-
Chad has to do that, at least publicly.
-
Hence why I put the infinity symbol in response to his “when am I ever wrong” question.
-
Changing a bit now; starting with Angel Hernandez a couple years ago, there seems to be an effort to get lesser rated veteran umps to "voluntarily" retire, albeit at a pretty expensive buyout. 7 are leaving after this season and coincidentally all have consistently been rated in the bottom quartile.
-
E never mattered as far as any scoring.
-
LOL. Were you envisioning El Tiante in Game 1 of the 75 Series?
-
I assume Weissert will get call; he’s the best arm they’ve left got out there now (a low bar to clear I grant you).
-
He just wants to give you something to post about.
-
Nervous about using Chapman here; he threw a lot of pitches last night. Edit - posted as Butler hit that double.
-
The second worst thing about that inning was now the Sox will have 7-8-9 to try and score the ghost runner should it get to the 10th.
-
Asking for a 4 game sweep at any time is foolish, even moreso on the road and even moreso when it involves a trip to the coast. 4-3 or 3-4 on this trip would be just fine.
-
It may not be all on that, but it’s a definitely a factor.
-
You could tell on the second strike it wasn’t going to happen. He was in last year’s swing mode, not this year’s more disciplined Cedanne.
-
There’s something called an occult fracture that doesn’t show up on initial x-rays but does show up in later tests (follow on x-rays or MRI). The wrist is apparently one of the areas susceptible to them. Lord knows the Sox medical staff has been less than good, but I could even see a case here where a Sacramento area specialist had to read it to find it. It really doesn’t matter; the injury is what it is and I doubt the treatment for the first 24 hours has adversely affected anything as far as recovery.
-
Then you’d complain that he took a hittable pitch. He’s gotten the job done almost every time this year. Contrary to expectations, sometimes these guys fail.
-
He got hit in the hand in his second AB. Stayed in to run but it swelled up big time. Did not look good. How’s the heat in St. L? I know the heat index was 124 yesterday and in the 110s today. Kinda hot to go to a game, but then I played golf today and the heat index was 112 here in the Quad Cities.
-
He’s got 4 sacs this season, second on the team. He’s normally gets them down.. A 100+ mph fastball is a tough pitch to bunt.
-
Might have gotten tagged on the elbow. Too close to overturn the call.
