  1. Playoffs? You're talking about the playoffs? Sorry, I couldn't resist.
  2. Like OB mentioned earlier, the Rays have scored more runs than any team in history with a team batting average in the .230's.
  3. The Rays batters stay within themselves, make contact with the ball, and produce tons of timely hits. The SOX? Not so much.
  4. That may be the biggest understatement of the season, so far.
  5. Cora, knowing E-rod's history in the 6th, probably would have liked to start the inning with SAW, but how do you pull E-rod when he only gave up 1 run after 5, without a ton of 2nd guessing?
  6. i was thinking the same thing, because E-rod usually has good 6th innings.
  7. When it comes to dingers, the Green Monster giveth and taketh away, but that triangle usually just taketh away.
  8. Not to take away anything from JD's great April, but since then, I'm guessing Renfroe has had more timely hits than JD.
  9. Got to give credit to Bloom for acquiring Renfroe.
  10. Speaking of Bill; maybe the best SOX player, who gets spoken about the least.
  11. Bill Mueller hit a couple off of Mo.
  12. One question though; if VAZ sucks, why was the SOX BP above average? Doesn't VAZ also catch the relievers?
  13. So if the SOX get rid of VAZ, Bloom can keep this starting rotation next season, because it was all the catcher's fault. And all this time I thought our starting pitching sucked, when, in reality, it was VAZ who sucked.
  14. The only SOX batter in the line-up who has faced Patino is Kike. He's 0-1.
  15. L.Patino 2-3 4.42ERA vs E-rod 8-6 5.33ERA Kike Duran Bogey Devers JD Plawecki(DH) Renfroe VAZ Cordero Go SOX
  16. The pitching coach is working with the catching coach to teach VAZ not to call the wrong pitches.
  17. Sale should wear a big 'S' on his jersey. While Super Sale recovers from Kryptonite exposure, the fans of a large metropolitan baseball team wait for him to save their baseball team from complete destruction. Look, up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, no it's Super Sale.
  18. Reclamation projects rarely work; in this case it was a 10 million dollar mistake by Bloom. Maybe someday he'll explain what he saw in Richards' previous two seasons to justify his blunder. Maybe Bloom will respond with "well, I loved his spin rate."
  19. I'm not going to pile on the BP. The simple fact remains if the SOX BP wasn't performing at a high level most of this season, the SOX would have been out of contention a long time ago.
  20. I was watching the Toronto feed with the sound muted, listening to Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. Both are more interesting than Buck Martinez.
  21. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap and realize you're getting beat by a better team. Right now the SOX are the 4th best team in the AL East.
  22. Didn't say launch angle was BS. Just mentioned that fundamentals have taken a back seat.
  23. Damn, if the SOX BP has turned to s***, what do they have left?
