  1. Sheriff lucky he didn't get a broken ankle on that play at first
  2. When hitting off a tee was outlawed, back in 1876
  3. Sox competing in the AL bEast with 3 guys in the infield late tonight who probably should be in Worcester . Arroyo should be the guy in Worcester. Come June the list of dudes who should be on the list of tradables will be composed.
  4. Reyes messes up a DP that would have ended this miserable inning, and allows 2 runs to score.
  5. Just seeing if I can fill up an entire page but with cogent comments. I'd be there and doing something else but Max interrupted the chain. The comment is that Joely keeps it low in the zone, which could be a good sign, but 2 walks with a 12-1 lead is not good. But it is early for Joely in his first game . 20+ pitches is not good for the rest of the BP. They will all have to work tonight
  6. In a laugher, the manager will sometimes let a position player pitch the 9th. Have you seen a manager have to use a pitcher at a position, maybe extra innings, or injury driven ? Not as a pinchrunner like Tom Brewer in the 50's, or PH like Jerry casales, but to play a live position ?
  7. WTF does this umpire see , or NOT ?
  8. Mr. Wong, do you want crushed nuts on that sundae ??
  9. 11 run lead with 12 outs to go----so you are saying there's a chance ? Concerned that Cora will deplete the short bench too soon to rest regulars , and not have them to PH in the 9th when needed.
  10. Devers has a new mantra, double or nothing
  11. These infielders are making 1B a war zone for Turner. Reyes play did save the inning and win for Bello , together wit h Turner's foot staying on and scooping that toss
  12. Dugo just got traded to the Yankees for Giancarlo
  13. Devers throws high and higher over to first, extends Bello's workload
  14. 82 after 4 innings. He will likely hit 100 at the end of 5 , so he needs to focus to insure his win.
  15. On another thread there are some comparisons of JD and Turner as DH's this year, although Turner has actually played in the field also. Before his dribbler groundout, Turner and JD both had .793/.794 OPS, 5 HR's each and 18/19 rbi's. But Turner has only 27 K's to JD's 35 and Turner has 20 walks to JD's 7. JD's OBP is .294, JT's is .360. Boston hasn't lost anything at DH this year.
  16. I was thinking more like with 2 outs in the 5th , Cora spanks him . I agree the umpire is already spanking him with more poor calls. Too bad Estabrook takes after his mentor Laz Diaz over on 3B line
  17. Bello must have been sitting too long, or it is too cold and windy , he is not in command of his fate. Might be passing up a win if he cannot find it soon. Cora will go get him shprt of the win. Needs a DP.
  18. The key to this team's climb towards playoff qualification will rest on winning series and avoiding sweeps, especially at Fenway vs NL teams. Bello can solidify his role as a key in this rotation. We need to see more of Paxton pitching like he did in his first start , but Bello, Sale and Paxton could be the reason we don't go on extended losing streaks. No question Bloom needs to be thinking hard about how to strengthen the BP mid-level. I think 3 Inning Houck needs to be there. His ability as a starter is questionable unless it is a piggyback effort, but with who---Kluber ? Crawford needs to get back into the mix as well.
  19. Garza filling up the zone, like a pro pitcher.
  20. The 9th is now a made for Brasier moment. But he's not here for it.
  21. Get Dugo home , for Nick P. Yoshi does the deed. Glad to see other Pitchers/Catchers mess up. Now up by 2 Duran is a better hitter than Devers and proves it
  22. Nick predictably fires up a blinding K preserving the game for the BP with no chance to lose the game but he could win it !!
  23. Watch what happens with 2 outs and man on 3rd in a tie game.
  24. 2 out walk, 2 strike pitches, 2 runs , 5 straight hits. Just interesting how they can blow up like a cheap balloon, pushing the BP into extremis once again.
  25. Laz Diaz behind the plate , further proof that performance and ability is irrelevant to objective outcomes.
