Here's some Post A-S numbers that tell part of the story. 3 regulars are hitting (BA/OPS) : Leon .119/.412 ; Moreland .186/.575 ; Holt .197/.597. After a quick start in Boston, Steve Pearce is hitting .211 in his last 38 AB's and Swihart is at .222 for his last 27 AB's. Kinsler is at .200/.526 fo rhis last 25 AB's.
-
I was going to say something about Kinsler should not be running. Thrown out by 5 feet. I fail to see the excitement for that acquisition even if his fielding is better than Nunez.
-
So next time Johnson is slated to start, can we just start Velazquez for one or two innings while Brian throws in the pen to get fully ready. Quite a different inning .
-
That has been one of the clear differences over the past games at home, including Rays games, but the Indian hitters have crushed the mistake pitches in these three games so far
-
Add that to Mookie's 22% K rate since the A-S game , but still hitting with a .294 average
-
Beni crushes another one, but does get on courtesy of the error. Why does he have 1 HR since A-S game ? He's hitting .309 in that stretch .
-
Odds on a RED SOX hitting response in the first inning : Officially 1 in7 (14.86%)
-
Another Indian HR to get things rolling. Never wanted to see Encarnacion come up when he is in Fenway. Johnson acting like a heavybag in a boxing gym.
-
Blind luck double by Lindor ups the chances of an early run for Cleveland
-
Hah, Tito knew Cabrera couldn't hit Johnson so he's keeping for a late game PH HR.
-
It's more the way of losing the 3 games . No hitting in a team wide slump , no power bats, weak pitching both from starters and relievers, all while playing at home against a possible playoff opponent.
-
The true test of Brian Johnson's abilities will be to see how he handles RedSox killer Melky Cabrera. If BJ can hold him 0-2 in 5 innings, he'll be my LH'ed hero. Think of tonight as being down 0-2 in the ALDS going against a 15 game winner with your #5. See if the hitters can summon a clue about their chosen profession. Result : Red Sox 8--Wahoos 5.
-
I hope Beni HR's but he does have a loop in his swing that causes misses on center cut pitches.
-
Pom's hot with a 1-2-3 inning on 12 pitches
-
Drew Pomeranz on hand to hold the deficit at 2 , waiting to get a win with a big rally in the bottom 9th
-
That's when you know you have a class act behind the plate. Just has to show one the best hitters in the game not to question his misjudgements on blaas and strikes. Total jackass in blue.
-
One Red Sox HR in the past 4 games at Fenway ??
-
Add Mookie Betts to the list
-
When you get that answer, ask him why did he start ?
-
Errr, 2 run lead as Cabrera continues to wallop Rick
-
Couldn't hit much vs the Rays bullpen, but fortunately clubbing Kluber especially with 2 outs. They look much more alive now.
-
The trouble with rooting for a .700 team is that they lose 30% of the time.
-
Betts blows today, as does JDM and several others
-
It's a long story but Matt is well along his way to the 20 pitch minimum for a reliever.
-
Barnes gives it up , in an otherwise well pitched game. But then I guess Matt needs to work on his split finger. Meanwhile I enjoy giving Barnes the finger whether he does well or not.
