    They score for him. His stats aren’t that great but they score when he’s pitching.
  2. illinoisredsox
    There goes that.

    Crash Davis would have said it needed a stewardess.

    You were expecting a shutout? Solo homers don’t usually hurt too much. It’s four bases and the pitcher starts clean. Spread those same 4 bases over 4 singles and you have a run in and the bases loaded or 2 runs in and still 2 guys on.

    Smoak is one of the slowest guys in the league but still ...

    If it’s an ERod start, it must be raining.

    Beni may or may not have peaked; it’s way too early to know. I don’t think he’s going to be a superstar, but there’s no reason to think he won’t be a decent major leaguer.
  8. illinoisredsox
    Nah. For one thing, he’s 33. For another, he’s a career .247 hitter, and that includes this year’s .300+.

    Sogard is a great lead off guy. His ABs remind me of Boggs.

    Overall across all of MLB: 2019 4.82 runs per game .252/.322/.433/.756 slashline ERA 4.48 2018 4.48 runs per game .248/.318/.409/.728 slashline ERA 4.14 Interestingly, this year looks a bit like 2017 2017 4.65 rums per game .255/.324/.426/.750 slashline ERA 4.35

    If I could figure out how to get that thumbs up emoji to work here ...

    I agree with the old 2nd baseman. The ST approach might explain April; it has nothing to do with now.
  13. illinoisredsox
    After 10 days off.

    You’re doing a lousy SwihartsGhost imitation.
  15. illinoisredsox
    You know you really are turning into a clown poster. Right now I’m trying to decide who’s worse, you or d-money. Either way, bye-bye.
  16. illinoisredsox
    No they won’t, unless there is a total collapse or a fire sale. For whatever reason the Jays have played the Sox tough but not so much the rest of the league.
  17. illinoisredsox
    I like this Sogards kid. He knows his limitations and has a great approach.
  18. illinoisredsox
    Don’t ask me, ask SwihartsGhost.

    Personally, I like having Hernandez up with the big club. He could and should learn and improve. Ditto Taylor. Guys like Velazquez and Brasier are what they are and have reached their low ceilings.
  20. illinoisredsox
    You aren’t going to get one for just Beni and it’s obvious DD has been instructed to stay under the salary cap level; that makes it very difficult to do.
  21. illinoisredsox
    Nah, we see them way too often. Somebody would recognize him.
  22. illinoisredsox
    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.
  23. illinoisredsox
    Moreland is could be back this weekend or early next week. I think Pearce is in witness protection.
  24. illinoisredsox
    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.
  25. illinoisredsox
    Some nasty pitches from the Blue Jay lefty. Every one was on the edge of the strike zone. Travis never had anything really hittable.
