Nervous about EO or nervous about going to the BP?
-
Someone mentoned higher seams on the baseball this year.
-
Many fans don't like the shift, but in reality it doesn't effect the purity of the game. The original rule in baseball was there had to be 9 guys on the field. Where they positioned themselves was never an issue. Hell, the manager could have 7 guys all clustered in LF if he wanted.
-
Most MLB starters make it seem that 7 inning baseball isn't a bad idea.
-
Similar to Lopez last night.
-
Why isn't JD wearing a shin guard? It really isn't going to hamper his speed all that much.
-
Asking a #3 to be a #1 is asking too much.
-
Why do so many pitchers have a phobia throwing to the bases, especially 1st? I probably should ask Lester.
-
Well, Thunder, your view could have been blocked by an Italian.
-
Cy Bassit?
-
Fenway's like an aging movie sex symbol. Just apply a major face lift and then add make-up periodically.
-
I agree. When you build them right the first time, no need for replacements.
-
He seems to love 3-2 counts.
-
Who will build a new ballpark first? The SOX or the Cubs? Or will Fenway and Wrigley remain until the earth self-destructs?
-
Maybe he needs to hit two tonight to get to start tomorrow.
-
OK, EO, you got your 1 run, now don't blow it.
-
Chavis may have a big input into how many days Dalbec has off.
-
0-1 in the last one.
-
Obviously, we recognize Pedro as a great pitcher, but what should also be remembered was that Pedro was the driving force that convinced the SOX FO to sign Ortiz.
-
I guess we can all agree that as long-time SOX fans we may not have had a team of much great pitching, but we sure can't complain about the hitters who came thru here.
-
Very good. I had forgotten about him; and, yes, he is a shmuck.
-
No doubt. I just posted that before reading your post.
-
Ya know Moon, I seriously doubt we'll ever see a 3 and 4 hitter in any team's line-up that will touch Manny and David. And in the history of baseball, imho, one would have to go as far back as Ruth and Gehrig.
-
Some of the crap he and Pedro pulled was hilarious.
-
Note: Babe Ruth hadn't become a full-time outfielder until he became a Yankem. He was a great pitcher for the SOX.
