The message of no incoming talent (other than Rock the Cashner) is the message that the Sox are settling for being out of postseason

Embarrassing

5-0

Jesus, he is awful, f***ing awful
-
At least Rick has figured out his problems, and is confident that...he f***ing sucks
-
Didn't take long on Porcello to cough up a run, as usual the biggest problem with Sox--SP
-
The Sox could have gotten a reliever, but other than that what's the point. However, the Sox SPs could actually pitch like they care and it would result in more wins. Relievers not as big an issue as the SPs not delivering

Drysdale also the King of Plunk

Gibson would headhunt you though, i bet he would if a batter stepped in that box on a ceremonial first pitch.

The Starting Rotation Performance Thread
dannycater replied to YastrzemskI's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
Absof***inglutely, agreed. -
Sale is the most professional, fundamentally sound, focused, greatest...underperformer in Sox history. Nah, just kidding, he did his job at times when it counted last year, but let's face it. He's not the SP we envisioned as automatic Pedro lights out, game over.

The Andrew Benintendi Performance Thread
dannycater replied to YastrzemskI's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
The Beni play was one for the ages. One of the biggest defensive plays in MLB history, maybe not to the level of the Butler Did It For NFL, but easily one of the most clutch catches ever. -
Taking it a step farther, we all use what we used to call sample sizes and create streaks of good and bad by dates between what is an upswing and a downswing. Take that the Red Sox are 49-31 in their last 80 games. It means what exactly? They are playing better now, but they also were god awful for way too many games to open the season. Beni is great now, not so great 5 games ago. Overall, that's why Devers, Bogie, EROD and Workman have been pretty damn outstanding because they have the overall numbers to prove it.

What's scary is how good the offense is overall in terms of all the HR, doubles, runs scored, etc compared to the dead-ball era teams of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Some of those teams were just awful in comparison to the 1999 to present teams. Game has changed, hitters are either using designer drugs or the balls are juiced, or both.

except the safety nets will prevent the balls from going into the stands
-
The last real spike in baseball interest was a PED-enhanced, manufactured home run duel between 2 absolute disgraces to the game, cheaters that make anything accused of the Patriots chicken feed in comparison.

Williams family has his frozen head near a tuna can, Rose is a gamble-holic, disgraced and never will get into HOF despite all-time hits leader, Sosa and McGwire were complete PED cheats, Bonds too.

His actual batting coach last few years is now the Dodgers batting coach and he is not allowed to contact him. He has since gotten into some bad habits, but his pitch selection as far as chasing pitches is what is hurting him. He can't seem to read or adjust to pitches away, breaking balls away and down. Plate discipline. I actually think his swing is fine, he's still driving the ball, ripping line drives, hitting bombs occasionally, but he has simply lost the ability to go to the opposite field much. So we have a plate discipline thing and a not using right field like he used to, thing. He has to keep working on his videos and figure it out. Once he does that, his HR and average will sky-rocket I think.

You can tell the wikipedia was edited by Sprowl's kid or some relative because we have rips on Jim Rice and Butch Hobson's defense in his "quality" start v. Baltimore*preceding the Boston Massacre, not to mention further rip takes on Bill Lee, Dick Drago, Zimmer, etc. Jesus, the guy went 0-3 in his MLB career, can we stop the adulation. Curly would have ripped the Wikipedia bio.

I have no idea why I kept going after the redhead, maybe I should have just hit on her, but she was so infatuated with Mr. Piano man.
-
I tried that too. f***ing waste of nickels.
-
Too many to count, notin. She called me "blockhead," too. That bitch.

Bobby Sprowl will never ever be known for anything other than the 78 Boston Massacre thanks to one Dan CurlyMan Shaughnegativessy. But I found him. He's been a long-time college baseball coach, and his bio doesn't mention his infamous part of the Massacre. Poor guy. https://athletics.sheltonstate.edu/sports/bsb/coaches/sprowl-bobby?view=bio

Everytime I see "Dalbec" I think of Brian Daubach and his affinity for dazzling us with power and then not dazzling us with epic slumps.

Now maybe we should fear for Mrs. Sale's pet rabbit?
