    Think I'll get another signature, Lin's Twin
  2. vegasbob
    3 starter wins in 29 games .
  3. vegasbob
    Sure hope Heath is ready to get one here. Not the best shot at medium high leverage situation
  4. vegasbob
    Meanwhile Erod thought his goal was to get to 100 pitches in 5 innings. They guy had himself almost eligible for a Starter Win, but could not get the 15th out. No guts, no glory
  5. vegasbob
    How about what Holt and all others Did Last Summer ?
  6. vegasbob
    In terms of a long career, it's more like No Wei Lin
  7. vegasbob
    Seeing Eye Holt

    In a year or two we will be treated to an endless thread on how T.W. Lin did not get a fair shot at playing full time in Boston, therefore was abused by management and never had a chance to reach potential
  9. vegasbob
    A big recovery, now up to Erod to stretch himself out and get at least 5 innings . Do not cough this minor miracle up, big boy
  10. vegasbob
    Chavis may have a future
  11. vegasbob
    JDM picks up another. It's painful to get the hits and only go station to station . A wall ball can tie this up.

    A Red Sox rally 2019: A walk, an error on a DP ball, a rollover bouncer by Beni that gets misplayed by the A's. Strong response guys. Now it's Mookie's deal to deliver
  13. vegasbob
    Montas gets 6 outs on 14 pitches, thanks to the 2 DP's. Rodriguez uses 52 pitches to give up 4 runs and get the same 6 outs.
  14. vegasbob
    I will say that Devers swing looks a lot better and stronger than a week or two ago. But another DP and basically another nothing inning.
  15. vegasbob
    The first inning turned into a dud for Boston, now down 4 , let's see if there is any response or heartbeat.
  16. vegasbob
    Those two would make a nice trade tandem, if anyone needed a LH thrower and the world's best CF'er.
  17. vegasbob
    Now Rodriguez's pitch count pace will eventually lead to another bullpen game, if the walks don't get him first.
  18. vegasbob
    Profar hitting .162 gets 2 runs home ( both walks) on a 2 strike count. Some things are just predictable
  19. vegasbob
    Low confidence in your stuff and ability leads to f***ing nibbling and big trouble.
  20. vegasbob
    Let's see if we can run on Laureano in Fenway
  21. vegasbob
    Can anyone let this poor guy die a natural death by baseball mediocrity ? Endless moaning pro/con about Blake Swihart while the team that is on the field is dying by a thousand paper cuts. Let Blake go and focus on WTF is wrong with the overall play of the guys who are here.

    It's not quite May yet , and will certainly be interesting to see where this bunch is come Memorial Day. But to find themselves more than week (7.5 games) behind the Rays, and effectively the Yankees, before the end of April is amazing . Failing to score much at Fenway may be a tribute to the Rays pitching, but the pure ineptitude so far of the JBJr, and Pearce is not helping. Pre-injury limited results from Holt, Nunez, Pedey were not encouraging. Leon is what you might expect, but at least Vazquez is making contact with a few well hit balls. Moreland is slumping as he does annually, and JDM has back spasms which can be a mental thing as well as physical when you are a serious hitter. Chris Sale at 0-5, with a 6.30 ERA and a 1.40 WHIP, plus a 5 year deal is totally inexplicable, but put some heat on the hitters for some of that non-support.
  23. vegasbob
    More than justified . He should be coming into his own with the bat, for power and average, while showing some steady play at 3B, not the inconsistency of great stops and throws surrounded by nonchalant errors. It doesn't seem that Ortiz's mentoring made a big impression.
  24. vegasbob
    Here's a preliminary scouting report. Do not throw him FB's; sliders and change up curves until he shows he can hammer them.
  25. vegasbob
    Mr. Chavis will certainly get a big opportunity to show what he can contribute to the underperforming team he has joined. Lots of potential and inexperience that will make his transition to an everyday regular a bumpy ride, possibly including ups and downs to/from Pawsox. Right now, the team has the options on him so he's movable. One problem is the logjam in front of him, specifically at 2B. You cannot stall Michael's progress by carrying him on the bench. Therefore the Sox need to deal with Pedroia's situation, Nunez's problems, and Brock Holt, all 3 of whom cost a good deal more than MLB minimum Chavis. I do not think Pedroia will voluntarily retire this year so looking at possible 60 day IL, if he can't truly comeback. Nunez may be a surprise DFA , with Holt resuming his utility role. Tzu Wei Lin better have kept his apartment in Pawtucket. Look for Chavis to be a bigger factor post A-S game when some of these decisions will manifest themselves.
