  1. Just thinking that when the pitcher has a 2 strike count on the batter, maybe the shift should be discarded.
  2. It's a tough adjustment going from triple A throwers to a quality major league pitcher.
  3. Nice shutdown inning by Houck. One thing that really impresses me about Tanner is the he doesn't get rattled. As for catching Houck, there shouldn't be much confusion on pitch selection.
  4. Timely hit by Bogey and wtf base running.
  5. He came up thru the SOX farm; what did you expect?
  6. That was embarrassing.
  7. I'm already missing O's pitching.
  8. He got tagged out running the bases. That is certainly VAZ-like.
  9. That was as ugly an at bat you're likely to ever see.
  10. 3 aasists by Devers and ties a major league record.
  11. That was VAZ-like.
  12. With the Yankems coming up that is certainly not good news. Thank you, Capt Obvious.
  13. Speaking of pumpkins, Barnes are you listening?
  14. Time will tell; it always does.
  15. With that being said, maybe both will start next season. I just feel that Whitlock has too much good stuff to be a reliever.
  16. Regarding the Houck-Whitlock discussion of which one should start next year and which one should relieve, I would go with Whitlock as the starter because he has command of more pitches than Houck. And one of Whitlock's pitches is an excellent change-up.
  17. MLB's league office is afraid of the umpires' union. Those f'ing chUMPS will go on strike at the drop of a hat. Btw, the league office should do something about the O's franchise; the O's have been terrible for a long time w/o any attempt at improvement.
  18. The Yankems didn't let him go w/o a reason. His history has been that he turns into a pumpkin later into the season.
  19. Wouldn't it be great to have a job where you can f*** up on a regular basis and not get fired? Welcome to the world of MLB umpires. Even clowns in a circus have to answer to someone.
  20. Unexpectedly, the SOX aren't exactly rakin' Akin. JD=3 BO's=1
  21. O's pitching is actually elite; they just caught the SOX when the SOX offense is hot.
  22. Akin' for a breakin'.
  23. I doubt Cora will be platooning Bobby Dee for a while.
  24. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly in baseball talk would be The SOX, teams under .500, and the O's.
  25. Beauty and the Beast in baseball talk would be the Rays and Tropicana Mausoleum.
