Luckily it wasn't Pomeranz waiting to go back out to pitch after 7 run explosion.........let it go...let it go....let it go
-
This is a game where the losing team should have the option to SURRENDER and STOP THE GAME.
-
Do I need to watch anymore of this game? Maybe....if Porcello wasn't pitching....I think we have this one
-
I was just going to say our two best hitters are at 8/9th....
-
Well at least we have one professional starting pitcher on this team
-
Mookie is the best of killer B's....I'd extend him right now
-
I hate Holt as Sox starting LF....but I love the kid when he's filling in......today at SS.......he's a super sub and very valuable to a ball club in that role.
-
If the fans are forced to pay twice for the double header, won't the gate revenue remain neutral? I don't see any reason to have 4 game series over 4 days. One of my best memories was driving to Chicago and watching Sox play the wrong colored Sox 4 times over the weekend.
-
Typical Sox FO to overpay for AJ...the biggest prick in major league baseball......Agents must love us.....we love giving out retirement/severance pay for has been, over the hill, broken body baseball players. Pablo Sandoval was our latest Power Ball jackpot winner. And this is why we should develop Swihart as a catcher.
-
Okay, I was just kidding, thus the Fantasy Island comment, BUT now that you went serious on me...... What if it was 3 game mandatory for every position player in the league? At some point in the season, they miss 3 straight games. I do think they could use some time off.
-
I loved watching the bottom of our lineup last night.....starts with Sandy and ends with Benintendi.....Then Pedey is there to drive them in. No offense but watching Hanigan bat really depresses me.
-
As I just posted in another thread, I don't think he should be called up unless the situation becomes dire. We are not at that point. He may very well be able to handle it, but there are valid reasons for not rushing him, all of which have been posted elsewhere. #4 post on the topic by Kimmi Here's someone who is a stand up person.......sorry I'm having a Pat moment from Saturday Night Live
-
I propose 5 day furloughs for players to get over mental fatigue.......I think Xander needs it......maybe he can fly to fantasy island. Mr. Roarke can help him out of his funk.
-
So he took a one healthy dump to start the week.....and we're supposed to get excited? Look honey, babby Pablo did a nice poo poo.
-
I can't think of another Sox team that I've experienced so many WTF moments. At least when they came in dead last, they were simply just bad. Barnes starts the 8th inning with a 6-3 lead and walks first 3 batters. Or Kimbro walking 4 straight batters in a save situation before getting bailed by Barnes. We trade for Abad for the purpose of shutting down one left handed batter.....gives up a 3 run shot to Cano in his first appearance. It just goes on and on. The problem is THEY ALL TAKE TURNS DOING IT. Now that hitting has settled down to norm, this is a very vulnerable team. Quite frankly, no lead is safe, except when Porcello is pitching. And I swear I can see John Farrell muttering..."WTF?" to himself with that dumb look of his.
-
Problem with Buch is that he wants to show off all of his pitches. His change was not working except for once but he insisted on throwing the pitch for balls. Also at some point, when you have a #8 hitter batting .210, don't you just pitch to contact instead of attempting to paint corners three times with three different pitches? Clay is DUMB. That's why he'll never succeed. Oh he'll have stretches of good run like a guy at a black jack table. Ultimately that guy will give back the money to the dealer and go home broke.
-
pitching for contract now
-
I'm all in with the girl in the picture....
-
Moon can you start a 2017 View? Lets talk about how we go about putting together a team for next year....Post Ortiz...
-
I hate the excuses always given for pitcher. I'm going to scream next time someone says Tazawa is overworked. If that's the case, put him on freaking DL for tired arm every other 15 days and have someone else pitch. Obviously they can't handle the load. I hate that we have so many whimps on the roster. They are either physically not tough or mentally soft....this is the Sox culture and Showwalter is laughing every minute. This team is SOFT.
-
Really good article about Sox messing up Swihart situation for short term gain. Best scenario would have been to put him back in AAA and work on his defensive catching. We no longer need a left fielder. Young and Benintendi will have it covered in 2017 unless we can unload Young for a relief pitcher. Swihart needs to work on catching. His trade value has to be low right now. I can see Pedey being out for long stretches over next 5 years. He just goes all out and I don't think his body is durable. Need to have a Jesus meeting about Hanley. Are we simply trying to recoup some of his salary? Will he hit good enough to play 1B or DH for another 3 years? What to do with Shaw? Pablo? Our starting pitching is beginning to look good in comparison to our relievers. Only one doing well is a summer rental. Ugh.
-
I just don't get why we didn't go with a younger guy, E Rod....I don't care if he pitched the day before or schedule to pitch next day...tell him to stop at 3B...... He's a terrible manager.
-
I'm sorry, we don't have tough guys in the pen....they all seem soft. They pitch with absolutely no accountability. It happens time and time again. 4-1 lead and the guys are nonchalant. They all have small pieces in failure;it's a group failure. I just hate Barnes demeanor. So above it all. I enjoy guys like Peavy. At least he owns it. Did you see the Pomeranz' facial expression when he's taken out? One of disbelief. Hey dude, you got up to 90+ pitches in just 5+ innings. You constantly go to full count, throwing over 20 pitches per inning.
-
Hanley is worthless....I rather see Shaw hit than Hanley... and he's going to be our DH? Our big black hole is in #5 spot.... -
Benintendi gets a hit off Layne....what is Young going to give that Benintendi won't?
