  1. Going into the 9th inning last night, career vs. Chapman JBJ - .667/.800/.667/1.467 with 1K in 5 PAs Moreland - .000/.000/.000/.000 with 2 Ks in 5 PAs and for giggles Vazquez - 1.000/1.000/2.000/3.000 in 1 PA Yes, extremely small samples, but that's what you get against most individual pitchers, and especially relievers. As many years as they faced each other, Ortiz only had 31 Plate Appearances against Mariano Rivera.
  2. 1) Ramirez led off the inning. Calling for JD to bunt there is idiotic. 2) The only people who bunt with 1 out are pitchers, not #5 hitters. Again, calling for Bogaerts to bunt there is idiotic.
  3. He’s right, he’s not a troll. He’s an idiot.
  4. He had no plan on how he wanted to go after Gardner. That caused the balk.
  5. Hitting is timing, pitching is upsetting timing - Warren Spahn Except fot Stanton, Pom did that tonight.
  6. He’s really still in Spring Training. Couple more starts we should know.
  7. Thst was set up by the 1-1 pitch bring called a strike when it was 4 inches outside.
  8. James Paxton of the Mariners has a no-hitter through 8 in Toronto.
  9. Sounds like a set-up for the Graucho Marx quip “Does it hurt when you do that? Then don’t do that.”
  10. Bill Lee was pretty good at it. I remember a few complete games with double digit hits and a couple walks.
  11. Price has been scratched; the numbness returned and he’s back in Boston. Porcello goes tomorrow and ERod on Thursday.
  12. I got a better idea, let’s DFA you.
  13. Didn’t care about the swing, but it was a bad swing.
  14. Hardly the only one tonight. You really are prefictable, just like “rain in Seattle”.
  15. Like I said, these clowns judge plays by results.
  16. Then how come you didn’t predict it before it happened then?
  17. JD never should have tried for second there; dumb play.
  18. Who both promptly struck out.
  19. Exactly, plus Severino is dealing. He's going to be tough to score on tonight. These clowns judge by results only. If he makes it, they would be crwoing about his hustle (well, not all of them).
  20. Being held back from what? They are on pace to win 119 games, which would only be the most ever. Whether they replace one or both catchers and/or JBJ, they aren't going to win 119 games this year. 100 would be fantastic, 95 is more realistic. What do you replace them with and how do you obtain said replacement? Swihart ain't it; if he were, he's be catching a whole lot more than he has.
  21. They were entertaining. Now they have gone beyond the ridiculous to the sublime. I swear he'd find something to complain about a Sox pitcher if said pitcher threw a perfect game. If he retired 27 batters on 27 pitches, Natick would complain about not enough strikeouts. If it was 27 Ks on 82 pitches, he'd complain about the one ball the guy threw.
  22. I do remember it, and thanks for reminding me:mad:
  23. He did catch 1 inning last night, but your overall point holds.
