    Valdez wasn’t going to get the hitter; it was a hit. Still like to see it fielded cleanly though.

    Valdez wasn’t going to get the hitter, but it helps a pitcher’s psyche to see it fielded cleanly.
  3. illinoisredsox
    Bello seems to have a lot of trouble pitching out of the stretch. And that pick by Smith is why just putting anyone over there is a dumb idea.
  4. illinoisredsox
    He was sold to the Mets about a week ago.

    Easy to be confused about with multiple awards in the same ceremony.
  6. illinoisredsox
    Yep, but it could have been a cumulative thing as well. Between 1999 and 2004, he made at least 65 appearances every year and was over 70 four times. Obviously with the post season, he was over 80 in 2004. That’s a lot of games and innings.
  7. illinoisredsox
    That he would, but Rohr was given a “Great Red Sox Moment” award; he wasn’t inducted into their HOF.

    I don’t think so. He barely meets the minimum criteria of playing for the Sox for 3 years (he played 3 seasons in Boston). He was awesome in 2004 but 2005 and 2006 were decidedly mediocre (to be charitable). I think HoF players need to be good for several years, not just one.

    Consider the source and move on. Just mvp doing mvp things.

    Probably should have put retiring in quotes

    I remember some player comparing trying to hit Rivera’s cutter to watching a horror movie. You know what’s coming, but it still gets you.
  12. illinoisredsox
    Nasty and has gotten a couple of strike calls from the ump. He doesn’t need the help.
  13. illinoisredsox
    Well, if we’re lucky, he’s a one inning guy. Only three 11 pitches though.

    Max, there’s a thread going on today’s game; this is yesterday’s game thread.
  15. illinoisredsox
    Live I thought so.

    Good pitch, got the ground ball, bad result.
  17. illinoisredsox
    Him seeing Doyle again and being able to report the answer to that question would be quite a feat.
  18. illinoisredsox
    This

    I times one last night, it was 15-20 seconds to get to the mound, a 20 second conference (with the ump there for 10 of those) and then 20 seconds more to get back to the dugout. So basically a full minute.

    Smart play by Grissom not chasing Siri there.
  21. illinoisredsox
    To me, it depends on how it happens. Belt high fastball down the middle? Sure. Guy dunks one the opposite way on a pitch 4 inches off the outside corner? No, that’s not disgusting.
  22. illinoisredsox
    On the real negative side, Bradley looks like he has no-hit stuff tonight. Painting corners at 99 can make for a long day hitting.
  23. illinoisredsox
    It’s the rule; you have to know. The one that surprises me is that they can’t switch positions without a substitution. Who cares as long as everyone is in a legal position.
  24. illinoisredsox
    FWIW, he is hardly unique in that regard among major league players. I’d go so far as to say most do exactly what Devers did.
  25. illinoisredsox
    Huh?
