    Very poor AB; all he needed to do was roll one over
  2. illinoisredsox
    Uh oh.

    Cease is fully capable of being that dominant multiple times a season. This kid is not, but any pitcher at the major league level is capable of doing it. How often they do it is what separates the great from the good from the average from the poor.

    He took care of it at the cost of 5 pitches.

    Doesn’t matter what his ERA is up to tonight. What matters is how he’s throwing tonight, and that sweeper has had a ton of movement on it. This is an abnormal game from him but those can happen.

    Or projectile defecation

    Or maybe the Cardinals could have taught Darrell Porter or Jack Clark how to catch a foul pop up for what would have been the first out; that changed the inning as well. The Cards also still had a game 7 they could have won. They didn't even show up. A year later, the Sox lost a World Series game 6 in horrific fashion but managed to play a competitive 7th game.

    Sox now with 22 sac bunts on the season. That’s 2 more than 2024 and 2025 combined.

    Seigler for now. Longer term , perhaps they have had it with Mayer?
  10. illinoisredsox
    Ah yes, virtue signaling.
  11. illinoisredsox
    Who cares, and that question covers many levels.
  12. illinoisredsox
    The streak was going to end sometime. We can complain about Rivera’s start (and it was bad) but the Sox have 1 run on 4 hits. Not going to win many like that. Most likely going to go .500 or so for a while.

    Real question, which would be worse? a) the period from 1949-2003 where you were very close a lot with some truly bad years in the early 60’s or b) the period from 1919-1933 with 15 straight losing seasons, 9 of those below .400, one of which they went 43-111 I say b, but that’s just my opinion.

    Magic number for a playoff spot is 63. The Sox lose a tie break to the Twins, they are 2-1 vs. the Mariners with a series to play.

    From what I have read about, he was. He was an average at best fielder, had an average arm and was below average speed wise. He probably could have been a better fielder; he just didn’t care about that side of the game. Not much you can do about arm and speed; you are what you were given in those categories.

    Wasn't that Slasher's schtick?
  17. illinoisredsox
    They brought back the old in the neighborhood play.

    Nice editing. You left off “especially on the road.” At the time I wrote that, they were 0-2 in extras on the road this year (now1-2). They were something around 1-8 in extras on the road last year. Today doesn’t change those stats very much; they are bad in extras on the road mostly because they have been terrible about moving the ghost runner up and scoring him, leaving the home te needing only one run to win.
  19. illinoisredsox
    Can they just stay on the road the rest of the year?
  20. illinoisredsox
    So who do we play tomorrow?
  21. illinoisredsox
    It’s hard for the best guys to do.
  22. illinoisredsox
    Forgot Whitlock is still available.
  23. illinoisredsox
    Extras is problematic. First, the Sox suck at it, especially on the road. Second, Masa’s the ghost runner. Third, who the heck do you use in the bottom of the inning?
  24. illinoisredsox
    Okay, 100 mph. Never mind.
  25. illinoisredsox
    Chapman with a lot of breaking stuff lately. Something up?
