    Cheng was in the whirlpool when Siegler hit the pole ? Can't make the club if your in the tub ! Note for Anthony, Mayer, Crochet and the rest of the IL's

    Why didn't they just take the Acela to NYC along with all the politicos ?

    Gray has Ewing down 0-2 on wicked curve balls. Eventually throws him a straight FB for a 2 out hit. Luckily Soto can't hit
  4. vegasbob
    Gonzo taking middle middle for his 3rd K. As others have said. bench players are what they are for a reason
  5. vegasbob
    I think Wong has a tired arm from all that running His throw to 2B wasn't competitive
  6. vegasbob
    Wong makes umps look bad when. running. Win one lose one. no runs
  7. vegasbob
    To K Duran , get him swinging at the first breaking ball, throw a called strike, then a straight FB high and Jarren is grabbing pine
  8. vegasbob
    On the IL ?? Vientos sounds like our guy

    Agree on no chance at a ring this year. It is fun and rewarding to se the Sox on a roll now but it does not change the bigger picture of a roster to win it all. What is more likely--the young LH'ers keep this run going onto October or hit the wall at around 125-140 innings. ? Early has probably hit his wall. Will Sonny Gray's value be maximized at the TDL or just let him pitch through season end for no purpose ?

    Possible mirage but also a reversion to mean with a motley crew of players. Hard to argue that excellent pitching can't carry you a good ways down the road.
  11. vegasbob
    Yeah, but Bennett didn't finish the game , did he ?. WARNING: Sarcasm
  12. vegasbob
    Beginning to prefer Durbin's overall game to Duran. I commend Duran for becoming a capable MLB player which 99.9% of all us "players" never did, in the face of his self imposed mental pressures. Good luck, Jarren wherever your talents take you

    3 more Ks for Duran. Sell the speed factor and move on
  14. vegasbob
    Duran will continue to K as long as he maximizes launch angle. swinging under any pitch above his belt. His inconsistent foot/leg lift doesn't help his positioning . Finally, like others on this team he has trouble catching up to fastballs

    Getting a WS title, like RS did in '04, 07 , 13 and 18 is priceless. If the Mets or Padres were any good do you think they would choke up on $20 Million ?
  16. vegasbob
    Yes, one of my contentions too. But I am sure we will be shown many stats changing that eye ball response
  17. vegasbob
    Bennett through 5 in 54 pitches. Another excellent outing by a young LH'er. I would not trade Early, Bennett or Tolle this deadline. I am sure CB will get offers . We need more info on Early's elbow condition. OK, maybe he can go
  18. vegasbob
    Good list!
  19. vegasbob
    Narvaez like many low education numbnuts is, in fact, not smart
  20. vegasbob
    Watching Duran run to score the first run you think that player is a resource that a big playoff team could use in certain spots The hole it creates defensively with Masa is a result of Anthony's never ending rehab. You can't give up a GG'er in Fenway RF so Abreu is a keeper. I would not accept a lowball for Duran. They can deal with that in the winter , short of a good offer now from a rich club
  21. vegasbob
    Sox get on a run , confusing the buy-sell debates. and promptly injure the right side of the infield. Hopefully just bruises but the X-ray will tell all
  22. vegasbob
    As has been said, Abreu is a good piece to have. Just not a star level hitter
  23. vegasbob
    Seigler may be sore for awhile, if not injured.
  24. vegasbob
    Thanks for the article. Now I know it is less than 50-50 that Crochet will pitch anytime before September Basically, he needs to relearn how to throw to avoid tearing up his rotator cuff. Not encouraging.
  25. vegasbob
    I do not see much news on Crochet's recovery or lack thereof. Last update on RedSox.com is June 22. While he is still considered a TOTR starter, how about the fact that he is missing over 50% of the season with no sign of return. Recommendation: Do Not Trade Starting Pitching to solve the hitting issue. The Sox ( Breslow) are extremely lucky that Early, , Bennett, and Tolle have been big contributors along with Gray and Suarez. Now Early and Suarez are ???? at the moment. Can Sandoval go more than 3 innings for a awhile? If there was reason to think Crochet was on track to return by the TD ( 8/3) go ahead and shop Gray but stop there. If any GM wants the rehabbing Houck or Crawford , you are welcome to them.
