  1. Devers is hitting .220 on outside pitches, so what does he swing at on a 3-0 count? Of course, an outside pitch. Very frustrating batter to watch.
  2. Story is just a solid athlete. If he was put in the OF, he'd probably be a great defensive outfielder.
  3. More pop-ups than an internet web site.
  4. Credit where credit's due. McGuire was a damn good pick-up by Bloom.
  5. Lead-off HR by Dugo and 2-run homer by Story.
  6. In 1996 Brady Anderson hit lead-off HR's in 4 games in a row, which is the MLB record.
  7. This game is like a family reunion.
  8. Freeman is just a great hitter. Maybe the best LH hitter in MLB.
  9. Masa has been cold of late. Abreu has been hot. Not rocket science.
  10. I posted yesterday that common sense says play the hitter who's hot. I guess common sense isn't that common.
  11. No Abreu in the line-up. Is this a Cora scheduled day of rest? Seriously, how is he not in the line-up? Is it because Masa is making millions and Abreu is at league minimum?
  12. It's been said a team can't have too much pitching. A luxury the SOX seldom found themselves in. However, can a team have too much outfielders? I'm sure Cora will have to do some fancy juggling between now and the end of the season to determine which outfielders will start. Imho, Abreu has to start until he cools off, which I hope doesn't happen for quite a while. Duran won't return until after Sept 1st, at which point the SOX will be allowed 2 extra players on the bench. I don't see the SOX optioning Abreu back to WOO. SOX outfield after Duran returns: Duvall, Masa, Dugo, Duran, Ref, and Abreu.
  13. Lynn vs TBD This game, unfortunately, will be televised on Apple+ exclusively. And when it's a case of money vs fans, money will always win. In fact, money always wins no matter what or who the competition may be. Greedy A-holes. Go SOX!
  14. Maybe the closed roof simulated a night game.
  15. Btw, big shout out to Bello. He was awesome. 7 innings of 1 run pitching and gave the BP well-deserved rest. Great job!
  16. Rest him sounds less harsh than bench him.
  17. I can understand criticizing Dugo's offense, but I don't understand why he's dissed about his defense. Makes no sense.
  18. Common sense says play the guy who's hot and that's Abreu. Sitting Masa a few games is a good idea.
  19. Worst thing to happen to France since the Reign of Terror.
  20. Too bad there's no 11-0 rule in baseball.
  21. 10 earned runs charged to France. I doubt his ERA is still under 3.
  22. Damn you, Dusty. You sure know how to ruin a good party.
