  1. From a Jack to a Swing(and miss).
  2. A 3-0 bunt for a single. In the words of Jack Buck "I can't believe what I just saw."
  3. So Paxton has to have bullets shot at RF, CF, and SS.
  4. Compared to the 'pretty' performance by the SOX defense(?).
  5. Some questions aren't worthy of an answer. Just continue with your informative posts.
  6. This game just magnifies how terrible a team the Yankems are.
  7. Where the hell do you think the SOX would be right now if they didn't have Paxton. Btw, the word 'sucks' loses all meaning when it's used hundreds of times and mostly used incorrectly.
  8. Can't help but wonder if Paxton is wearing down as his starts pile up.
  9. Does crossing one time zone cause jet lag? SOX playing like a jet lagged team.
  10. They're calling that error on Devers a base hit. What a joke. Seen a lot of errors called hits this season.
  11. Ground balls toward Devers is drama at its best.
  12. Duvall surprises; Story does not.
  13. If a losing team wants immediate improvement without waiting 4 or 5 years, DD is your man. DD's motto "I believe in proven veterans and prospects are just trade bait." DD will spend a lot of money, clean out the farm, but the fans, who don't give a lick about the money or the farm, will have a contender before they can say Dave Dombrowski.
  14. Btw, that Nationals' team the SOX were supposed to win 2 or 3 games against? They have the 3rd best record in MLB for the month of August and they're beating the Phillies right now 4-0. Sometimes looking at a team's season W/L record isn't the best way to value a team as opposition. How are they playing as your team enters a series with them. So the Nats taking 2 of 3 from the SOX wasn't a fluke. At the time of the series the Nats were the better team.
  15. Here's how the discussion went in the reviewers' booth: 1st reviewer: "Man, that's just too close to overturn. Who made the safe call at HP?" 2nd reviewer: "Valentine." 1st reviewer: "Damn, I could have made the decision earlier if I'd known that. The call is overturned. The runner is out."
  16. If that chUMP called him safe, he must have been out.
  17. Closers aren't paid extra for adding drama in the 9th, but if they were, Kimbrel would have been the highest paid player in MLB during his time with the SOX.
  18. Kenley doing his Kimbrel impersonation.
  19. I would trade Duvall and Dugo for subtracting 4 years from Turner's age.
  20. Looks like Masa needs another day of rest. His former manager in Japan told Cora that if he's had a bad day at the plate, it means he's tired. Duvall, OTOH, needs more than a day of rest.
  21. Turner thrives with RISP.
  22. His foot touched HP before the tag, but F the Yankems and the bozos in the YES booth.
  23. Wow! I'll take it.
  24. SOX always can invent new ways to lose.
  25. SOX are still 51-3 when leading after 6. In this game they were tied after 6.
