  1. Anyone notice that other than 1st inning, Suarez allowed 2 out baserunners in each inning. Olson's HR was almost predictable
  2. 3 of those are long gone. 1 admits he struggles at bat with every move up in class. 1 is fragile, and 1 is maturing into a good player
  3. 2 of our first 3 hitters went full yard. The 3rd went to a warning track death. Maybe the Sox read the story on Talksox about why they weren't hitting sharply
  4. A fact that is happening without known injury to Narvaez or Wong If anyone had made that call on April 1 , it would have been a joke
  5. Short of getting lucky, this outcome is certainly possible. The only help is that 3 of those 8 are on the road, not Failure Fenway.
  6. Excellent article by Yirsandy Rodriguez here on TalkSox, see right hand column for access ........ It addresses why the Sox batters, as a whole, are in a true power slump and not just in a group of individual slumps. This smacks of organizational direction or influence to emphasize contact, but not hard contact. You have to do two things as a hitter, hit the ball and hit it with high exit velocity. Of course, to hit it you have to see it and judge the pitches trajectory , so there's that too.
  7. And if the overall lineup were hitting to their career OPS numbers the team would have many more wins
  8. When will the analysts finally recognize that ultimate statistic, the only one that actually matters if a team is playing for a championship.
  9. For all the reasons above Wong had to be sent. He may have hesitated near 2B because the wind was blowing in and it was mire of a flyball than rocket shot. Plus if the throw came home as it did, IKF was going to be on second where a single should have scored him. Cedane almost singled but as SS says, tjus team is neither good nor lucky
  10. Mayer is a great foul ball hitter who then Ks with men on base
  11. Red Sox bullpen can get the first 2 outs but have real difficulty finding the 3rd while holding a lead
  12. Ahh, Mr. Whitlock , do you intend to pursue this line of work much longer ?
  13. Just have to say when a reliever comes in and immediately walks the leadoff , you know he needs to go away. Coulombe has no ability
  14. Let's make the deal to dump Masa's contract, then redump Devers in the off season
  15. Masa on fire now. hitting to both foul poles. Work the phones now. Craig
  16. Duran is an undisciplined batter. Chases the wrong pitch and takes a hittable pitch.
  17. Gray pitching to a 9.00 ERA on a wet Sunday. Minn getting the brooms warmed up. It was probably overly optimistic to the pitching would always keep the Sox in contention
  18. Duran is one of the few veterans who. can go 1 for 5 and still raise his BA. Inexcusable to get K'ed on a close pitch there
  19. Run differential is a key stat to some of our commenters at TalkSox. They all count one by one, it can add up
