  1. the fact that you have to question whether it was sarcasm is challenging. Not sure Thunder has done that class at UCONN yet
  2. Glad you see how both guys have made monumental shifts in their value to the winning outcome. Extend both now while they are hot
  3. Thank Beni for executing what was needed. And Mookie brought the run in. Excellent team play. Amazing difference when the 7-8-9 hitters get on base (each) just once a game
  4. Tzu Wei Lin's double changes the entire scenario at 2B for the rest of the season. Now he's a contender after Bogey gets his rest.
  5. Is Kimmi TV worthy ? I think NESN should provide a scrolling feed of Talksox game threads so other fans can now what is really going on during these games.
  6. Will he stay on pace to play the whole season (say 140 games ) ? Personally I hope so and have always liked watching him. Pretty much the definition of a professional.
  7. Moreland is pounding the HR's, a most welcome result. Overall, he's making it somewhat all or none with the .222 average but then the team leading 18 rbi's. Glad to have him now. Depending on the 2B situation, Chavis and Moreland AT 1B sounds better than Moreland/Pearce
  8. Lin is at SS today , but he is a small part of how to handle 2B, if Pedey, Holt, Nunez can't play well enough to continue. Chavis at 2B has not hurt the team and in fact may have brought some energy and positive results.
  9. The fact you had to clarify it for some ( most not on this thread today) says it all.
  10. He has been a positive catalyst with a power bat and aggressive basserunning, which can work both ways. Maybe the bigger message is if you old fart World Champions don't want to exert yourselves, there's some guys looking for your jobs. Then the 2018 vets look at Chavis and say, " Now that you are out of the MiLB system, who else have you got, lol"
  11. Hate to say it but I believe the back problems with JDM have cost him maybe 10% power which was evident the last two games.
  12. For the moment, I think Chavis is the write-in choice. Not expecting an acquisition until maybe late July if nothing clicks with the existing guys
  13. Since Tzu goes up and down so often from Pawsox to Boston, I think his father is the famous musician , Yo Yo Ma
  14. Big Al "Spy" Speier making it all clear to us unwashed
  15. Select one of the following: A. ____ Pedroia B._____ Holt C._____ Nunez D. ____ Lin E._____ None of the Above F. _____ Write In Choice
  16. Ok, you started it ----Go Wei, far Wei
  17. Bullpen game as predicted. Velasquez is not the answer to a 5th or 6th starter
  18. Rico makes the call and is right again. Lin is no answer as a regular, except maybe for Pawsox
  19. Chavis luck ran out on that rebound off the way too tight backstop screen. Should have had the lead, but not Mike's fault for going. It's Lin's fault for coming out of the dugout , down 0-2, then finishing the K with one of the weakest Taiwan-Japanese league type slow slash swing. He is as pitiful as all our other sub .200 hitters
  20. JBJr is getting hot, and good fo him. Will increase his trade value
  21. We always talk about the difficulty of West Coast road trips for the Sox. It looks like between Toronto and Boston, the A's are seeing the flip side of all that time and routine change. One of MLB's programs to be implemented in 2021 is that all teams east of the Missippi play all games east of the river, and vice versa fo west coast teams. It's a contribution to reducing MLB's carbon footprint
  22. Shouldn't Vaz's nickname be RED ?
  23. Beni , in the lead off spot for the last 7 games is 4 for 25, with an OBP of under .260. SSS but he is the leadoff hitter.
  24. Chavis learns the triumph of the uncluttered mind and the benefits of hitting the base with your grounder
