Sorry, had to step out for awhile and missed the rallying that Duran got started with 2 OUT hitting. Still, 7 K's in 3 innings ( 9 outs total) shows that the engine is still misfiring badly. MVP has it right---Put the ball in play and something good can happen. -
That's correct, Nick
-
Come on guys. Newbie did get 3 outs, all by K's, a 100% rate. The 4 run deficit ? Just following the Red Sox game theory of fall behind early and not hit with men on base.
-
" Get your K's and LOB's in early folks. Get'em while they last" Our players are not being productive.
-
Man on 3rd 1 out , 2 K's. Makes Martin look good
-
Cambell swings at ball 4's.
-
A 2 minute lead and Fitts runs out of gas, WTF.
-
Wong showing a novel concept---put the ball in play and good things may happen.
-
Abreu , the trade prospect to some, is carrying the load so far.
-
Looks like Raffy needs an eye exam swinging at crap and missing layups in the zone..
-
I bitch about Devers so much I thought I would give his many fans a break and credit him with something, anything, especially since Duran could not do that simple thing.
-
One more continuing trend: Wong chases breaking balls ( curve/slider) low and away until he K's. He will never be a significant bat until he learns to recognize the spin. Never understood why catchers have a hard time recognizing spin or the ball coming out of the pitcher's hand.
-
Fitts continues to be efficient with 29 pitches through 3 giving him a decent shot at 6 innings. The man needs some run support now.
-
At least he advanced Rafaela to 3rd, a productive out (?), unlike Duran and Bregman who missed the opportunity to get a run.
-
Fitts works his way out of a potential bad inning , only giving up 1 run on a sac fly. A few continuing trends from "24 A. Sox do not score early, leaving men on base. B. They play from behind, making the comebacks more exciting C. Pitchers have trouble closing the door with 2 outs and men on base. In this game Fitts got it done
-
Economical 1st inning , only 7 pitches, for Fitts . May bode well for a double shutout .
-
I know it is still early. Games in March and April don't really count , but Devers and Casas, despite his one hit, are not ready for primetime. Story and Bregman close by. 10 LOB's and 11 K's continues the hitting futility . Campbell and Abreu the 2 bright spots in the lineup. I think tomorrow, they will score 9 and get a split in TX.
-
The pitcher's best friend a DP with a rally brewing. Sox needs score(s) in the 9th
-
May be a slipping memory but LOB(steres) were a problem last year and are showing up early this year. Abreu's key HR in Game#1 was the only exception in a small sample.
-
Story , on the other hand may become another Bloom-bust
-
Campbell could be the breakthrough player that does validate the Red Sox MiLB system for rapidly developing position talent. I see Casas was motivated by my comment .
-
You can't spell clueless without the C in Casas. But he is a known late starter like RD. Can't wait for June to get here.
-
Devers gets an RBI. Patience pays off
-
Yeah, that would be a .500 team, sort of like 2024, but better than '22/'23.
-
Sox still in contention for an undefeated season.. Be sweet to take 3 of 4 in TX to get it rolling.
