  1. Yoshi jumping the first pitch after 2 straight walks and tops a high ball into a DP. Not sure what he is thinking there, but it was in Japanese and I don't get it
  2. To anyone not named Chang, the worst consequence of Chang's injury is the return of Arroyo to front line status. As mentioned, Chang had at least settled down the SS hole defensively. It also keeps Kike on the field.
  3. Batting Average Balls in Play are a contributing factor to Fielding Independent Pitching . FIP doesn't influence BABIP because BABIP is simply a factual statement. Of course Batting Average has its own considerable statistical problems
  4. So Max says someone must fall on the grenade that is Corey Kluber and start this thread, fully realizing there will be no tomorrow for said volunteer. Kluber has so far accounted for the L in 33% of Sox losses, chalking up a sterling 8.50 ERA in 18 innings over 4 starts, WHIP'ing opponents to a 1.50 tune. Corey has given up 19 hits in the 18 innings, 6 of which are HR's . Kyle Brandish is a 26 year old , with only 2 starts, and 7.2 innings accumulated in those (8Ks/2BB) . So how effective has this semi-starter been ? Try a 0.0000000 ERA and 1.04 WHIP Like Max says, this one is a mission deep into enemy territory with little hope for survival . Let's hope our batters swing their weapons and that Bumpires do not determine the outcomes.
  5. Bloom was officially quoted by Speier , "It's still very early " Everyday I learn more and more about baseball from the insightful wisdom of its highly compensated geniuses. One question, do these games not count ?
  6. probably the 3rd or 4th this year
  7. Sale definitely lost that one . Then the hitters disappeared. It may just be a .500 team teasing us nightly
  8. Kike was not and still is not my fav Sox. Oh , and never will be
  9. Maybe Steven G. Wonder and his brother R.C. Charles
  10. Yoshida's patience is superb when he knows the ump is expanding the zone
  11. Dugo playing a big league RF. Got to pull it out for him
  12. On the way to dropping a game wherein the Sox turned 4 DPs. Only possible when your pitching is putting them on regularly
  13. 8th inning, last chance for the hitters to cycle through , if it goes to the 9th we'll be in trouble in the lower part of the lineup.
  14. Great play by the 2nd base ump to set up the DP
  15. Seems like the bats went quiet after the 3rd, so a quick look at the box score reveals that the bottom 5 hitters only have 1 hit tonight amongst them, albeit Casa's HR. When the bottom half doesn't contribute much , it becomes a long night
  16. It was a decent gamble but it turned Turner turtle. A perfect throw from about 100' away
  17. Damn Turner running into outs
  18. The correct number through 4 innings is ZERO . Had he a pitch to K McCann , Sox would still lead
  19. Sale blows a 4 run lead as Mccann, .136 , works a 10 pitch rbi single... It answers the question as to whether Sale is back to his former self. Blows the 4 run lead even with 2 inning ending DPs.
  20. Chang, who allegedly doesn't speak English, talking to Santander at 2nd base, who also doesn't speak English.
  21. Please note in defense of Casas that the Chumps are screwing him royally as they are wont to do to rookies. It sucks and a real credit to the umps suckitude
  22. And you may be very accurate, Max. Not looking super sharp. Just needs to avoid a Weaver special, 3 run dinger
  23. The Runnin' Red Sox create a run, and then set up Devers for a tater Raffy on pace for 72 HRs
  24. The big question is can he go back to his right on both pop-ups and long flies
  25. Jarren must have found the bottle of attitude pills, and taken several. Totally different output now
