Nah, we see them way too often. Somebody would recognize him.
-
I did look up Pearce. Apparently he did something to his knee at the beginning of the month during his rehab at Pawtucket. The article said he doesn’t need surgery, but he will be out for an extended period of time. Translation - his time with Boston is done, and his career is hanging on life support.
-
Moreland is could be back this weekend or early next week. I think Pearce is in witness protection.
-
Agreed, but it’s why he’s here right now. Holt is hitting sub-200 against lefties this year, although he’s had very few ABs.
-
Some nasty pitches from the Blue Jay lefty. Every one was on the edge of the strike zone. Travis never had anything really hittable.
-
True, Nunez would have hit for Holt.
-
Sorry, missed the word future in your OP.
-
He can throw, but for a guy who works with the Molina’s, his glove work is less than stellar.

Giving up homers is not a big deal. These are big league hitters, they are going to hit them. As was pointed out last night, Justin Verlander leads the majors in homers allowed with 25 or 26, which is 10 more than Porcello; he has given up more than Porcello the last 3 years combined as well. The key is giving up solo shots or 2 run homers at most. The 3 run and grannies are what kill you. Jim Palmer gave up a ton of homers. He never allowed a grand slam and only a handful of 3 run shots. Didn’t stop him from getting to Cooperstown.

Exactly. Do the naysayers think Velazquez would have fared better? As I posted earlier, he hasn’t pitched since the 6th. That’s a long time off for a guy who has to rely on control.
-
During what games?
-
Figures. Tellez, rookie Sox killer, goes down and Slovak, multi-season Sox killer, wakes up.
-
It all started with a get me over fastball on a 3-0 pitch.
-
What? You lose a lot of credibility with posts like that.
-
I’d like to see Betts on the move here.
-
I remember that in the 1969 World Series. Cleon Jones, wasn’t it?
-
So who are you trading to get one, cause you aren’t getting one for just Benintendi.
-
The umps somehow missed the fact that the ball hit Benintendi’s foot. You can’t fake that reaction.
-
In what position? Who are you replacing? Who are you giving up?
-
How do you win 9 games for the f***ing Orioles by sucking? Seriously, he hasn’t pitched since July 6; it’s showing in lack of sharpness.
-
Good grief some of you panic waaaaay too easily.
-
He was killing Sox pitching this year for sure.
-
May be the effects of not pitching since July 6. That’s a long time off.
-
He was 9-3 with the O’s. He was the only guy they did get a lead for; I think they said when he was traded Baltimore had 28 wins total.
-
15 strikes in 20 pitches though.
