    I am telling all concerned that is not the same JDM swinging the bat that we are used too. He may not be complaining but I would bet it all the back is not 100%, or he has let the injury get in his head momentarily.

    I think after the initial series in Oakland, many of us would have traded JBJr for Laureano, yet in this series he has been a dog. Beni's short fly was the CF's ball similar to Bradley and Betts confusion several games ago. Oakland really is awful on defense.

    Lin cements his future with a leg hit and rbi. Very nice to see the lower end contributing. Now for Beni the bunter to slam one.
  4. vegasbob
    Actually a good day at bat for JBJr, working the 3-2 walk and getting a line drive hit, and a hard shot at the fielder

    We seem to have missed thanking Marcus Walden for 3 innings of 1 hit ball on 31 pitches, followed by Workman getting his inning with only 12 pitches, indicating command and control by both pitchers. Actually a pretty good bullpen game today

    Tyler D and Thunder check post #15 way back early in this thread and tell me what you think of MLB's new idea.
  7. vegasbob
    the fact that you have to question whether it was sarcasm is challenging. Not sure Thunder has done that class at UCONN yet

    Glad you see how both guys have made monumental shifts in their value to the winning outcome. Extend both now while they are hot

    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

    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.

    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.
  12. vegasbob
    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.

    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
  14. vegasbob
    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.
  15. vegasbob
    The fact you had to clarify it for some ( most not on this thread today) says it all.
  16. vegasbob
    Who ? Or is he on first ?
  17. vegasbob
    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"
  18. vegasbob
    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.
  19. vegasbob
    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
  20. vegasbob
    Since Tzu goes up and down so often from Pawsox to Boston, I think his father is the famous musician , Yo Yo Ma
  21. vegasbob
    Big Al "Spy" Speier making it all clear to us unwashed
  22. vegasbob
    Select one of the following: A. ____ Pedroia B._____ Holt C._____ Nunez D. ____ Lin E._____ None of the Above F. _____ Write In Choice
  23. vegasbob
    Ok, you started it ----Go Wei, far Wei
  24. vegasbob
    Bullpen game as predicted. Velasquez is not the answer to a 5th or 6th starter
  25. vegasbob
    Rico makes the call and is right again. Lin is no answer as a regular, except maybe for Pawsox
