  1. Just like any play clock. You get penalized for taking to long.
  2. Where did you get the idea there is no pitch clock?
  3. Yes they’ve had a couple of small spurts where they have played well against good teams, but the reality is their record against the Div, and their overall record, which adds up to a losing team with a losing record, and a last place finish in the Div.
  4. Nobody has said he’s now dealing with any kind of injury. I think he’s just messed up so bad he doesn’t know how to get out of it. Hopefully one bomb will lead to another.
  5. I said this back in December, and it’s worse than I thought it would be.
  6. I was worried about Buchner before the season even started. Looks like anything, but the TE is a worry on offense.
  7. Painful to watching meaning I know he’s a lot better hitter then what he looks like right now, and you can tell he’s been frustrated for some time now.
  8. Paying customer at Fenway? We just have different philosophies. To me a team like the Red Sox with a $200M payroll should not have to take any years off to rebuild, or anything else you want to call it to possibly get better 2, or 3 years from now. They don’t have to be a champion, but at least be competitive every year, and if you have people in charge who know what they are doing you shouldn’t have to go though a season like this, or other last place finishes that have gone along with championships. Taking a year off does not guarantee nothing.
  9. How many straws are you going to grasp at to say it’s the same as the shift, which is going, going GONE next year.
  10. Who said it did? Nobody!
  11. Seattle was not playing well when the Sox played them, and the Angels were going through their long losing streak unlike how they are playing now.
  12. I did not say Raffy sucks right now, but he does, and he should get just as much flak as JD, and Bogey has gotten. I’m not going to gripe about it, but the bad comes with the good. I just said it was painful to watch him swing a bat right now when I know he is a lot better than that. Bello is enjoying to watch, and just needs more consistency with that wild stretch.
  13. They made it back to a winning record by playing the bad, bad, bad West that you bought into. What happened when they got back to playing the Div teams again? Reality set back in, and here we are today with a losing record, and LAST PLACE in the Div.
  14. No! The 50,000 shift increase in a 10 year period, which I believe is at a all time pace this year also.
  15. Once again are you saying paying customers, which you are not should be watching so called bubble players when they go to Fenway? Like I said earlier people at the games in person only care about that moment in time, and not if Ort will make the team next year. Now that is not Rocket science.
  16. At the moment it’s pretty painful to watch Raffy swing a bat.
  17. Are you talking the paying customers, or on here? Big difference.
  18. No I’m saying that Ort to me was not the best option. That would have been a situation for a good long man, or setup man.
  19. All analytics driven, which I don’t see as bringing any improvement to the game.
  20. Who’s talking about banning bringing the IF in? It wasn’t even mentioned by me. Seeing things that aren’t even there again, because you are so hung up on guarding the 3B, and 1B lines as like a shift.
  21. I get the point you are trying to make, but that point just doesn’t matter to some as it does you. This year with this record is what matters to many.
  22. I never saw Yaz with one of those, but probably the Nerds, and Clones hand them out before each game.
  23. In the words of 700 he’s a ham, and egger. Look if you think bringing in Ort in that situation was the right move last night then we just disagree.
  24. Well said.
  25. There should be nothing to be found out about Ort that isn’t known already. If there is then Houston we have a bigger problem evaluating talent then we thought.
