Cora speaking to his bullpen ?? Or just compliments to Brian J. ?
-
It must be like the vacuum around a tornado when two serious suck teams play in the same park
-
Another twist on this season is that the Red Sox lead MLB in wins with 5 LH'ers who have started multiple games. That's not typical for a Fenway based team.
-
White Sox score two runs in the first over NYY. Should have scored them in 13th last night
-
Johnson needs this inning to get in line for a win that will even up his record at 3-3. Like to see a full six if he can get it. Then the bullpen denizens start their parade again.
-
To look at the obvious stats, there is little comparison between Johnson and Pomeranz: Johnson IP's 69 ER's allowed 27 ERA 3.52 K's 64 BBs 22 WHIP 1.42 BAA .269 HR's 9 Pomeranz 51 " " 36 "" 6.31 K's 44 BBs 32 WHIP 1.81 BAA .299 HR's 10 Draw your own conclusions about who has the ability to get it done with their skill level

HP umpiring, an inconsistent truth. Stuff is whatever the ump thinks it is. Get some, lose some
-
Jays not missing Pearce when Smoak smokes Boston as is happening often
-
Hauschild hits Betts---Red Sox hit back big time.
-
Mitch is coming back when it counts
-
Not funny, ******* rookie
-
Johnson and Pomeranz are both LH'ers. They both throw slow teaser pitches. What's the difference in both reality and perception ? Johnson works quickly and throws strikes with his slop stuff (14 in first 20 pitches)
-
No wonder his bat is a little bit off the last week.
-
It usually is. Actual Sox players often don't arrive until the 7th inning, then takes one or two to warm up. If they didn't use these imposters early, the league would have to ban them for being too good.
-
Going against another young "newbie". Will they make him regret his chosen line of work or make him think he has an HoF future? Should be a good shot for Johnson to get a win.
-
Some of the outs were pretty well hit including the line drive he snagged himself..Drew's ultimate problem is that if he has to pitch like a Jamie Moyer type, then he must have tremendous control to move locations around and hit it, just inside th umpire's perceived zone. That is what he can't do right now. Also his mechanics all go to hell when pitching from the stretch and he leaves his left arm( the one with the ball), way behind his body so he can't bring the pitch down and in with any force. You would think a pitching guru could walk/talk him through all that, but he may be less than trainable like some other throwers who have been out there.
-
Still 1-1 in Chicago in the top of 10. White Sox could use a walkoff in the bottom half to familiarize themselves with winning a little.
-
Generally agreed, and don't think it will even come up at that time, but he did get 14 outs tonight, giving up 2 runs , walks and hard shots all over. The BP gave up 5 runs in 4 innings and were teetering up to the last out.
-
Maybe this game is simply a statistical anomaly for the bullpen, but it shows a lack of focus and skill if nothing else.
-
Hell, Tyler grooved that medium FB. Nice work BP !!
-
No worries, Tyler. Sets up the DP nicely
-
80 wins??---still no guarantee of a .500 season
-
FWIW (not much) other teams must hate to see Boston coming up on their schedule. They have a way to go but it's a scary bunch. We are spoiled because the score isn't 10-2 after 5 innings. Just remember who got your first 14 outs.
-
I'm not Cora fortunately for the Sox, but my sense of humor would run Kimbrel back out there for the 10th.
-
Giles has found the rung on the ladder lower than Kimbrel. Good for JBJr ,on another 0-2 pitch
