  1. Well, if nothing else, they've at least turned the line-up over so that Devers and Bogaerts will hit in the 9th (or earlier).
  2. Just my probably uninformed observation, but it seems like Vaz hits better with no one on.
  3. Puig's Indian debut may be delayed by a couple games. He's still in the game (or was) and got into a bench clearing brawl. Apparently some decent punches were thrown.
  4. Sox supposedly talking to Arizona about Andrew Chafin.
  5. Don’t bother, they’re here.
  6. I don’t think people realize how hard it is to hit major league pitching period. Put another way, you know the best pitcher you ever saw? He ain’t here. Best kid I ever faced was the #1 pick of the Blue Jays. I had faced him in Babe Ruth ball when he was a tall skinny guy with a curveball. I could hit him. A couple years later we were teammates on an American Legion team. He had added 20 pounds of muscle and was throwing 85. I couldn’t touch him in BP. He made it to AAA but never got the call.
  7. Chavis has no chance against Chapman.
  8. It looked like a strike until the last second and then the bottom fell out. You have to gear up for 100 off Chapman.
  9. Oh, the 1-0 pitch. Agree, it got Britton back in the AB. Can’t say for sure it would have gone to 3-0 since the pitch calls probably are different. Didn’t help though.
  10. I think the walks and less than stellar defense has had a lot more to do with it.
  11. You mean the one he fouled off? Way to close to take.
  12. Very likely called strike 3 if he doesn’t swing. Just a nasty pitch by Britton.
  13. Henry’s rich but he’s not THAT rich.
  14. Sale hasn’t been sharp. Yanks hit 3 balls pretty hard before the homer.
  15. It was around 3.3 before his last start; that’s pretty good in today’s game.
  16. He's still only pitched 4 innings since he was cleared to throw, 1 at Pawtucket and 3 with Boston. The stuff is there, the command isn't. That will come with reps. Right now Eovaldi isn't ready to close,
  17. Don’t have to; I know what they mean. Everyone has eidetic memory to some extent; it’s how long you retain the images that differentiate between degrees.
  18. Eidetic or photographic? They are different.
  19. Wasn’t watching close enough to see if Eovsldi was shaking him off or not. Interesting that Eovsldi came in with 2 curves right after LaVange came out. Either way, Vazquez has never impressed me with his game calling.
  20. He is, I think that’s now 4 innings he’s pitched since being cleared; 1 in Pawtucket and 3 in Boston.
  21. Nothing but fastballs. Got to throw something else once in a while.
  22. Oh, okay. Thought I had missed a roster move.
  23. So long as it’s called that way both ways, I’m okay with it. Ump has had a wide outside corner today, but it’s been wide for both teams.
