I can’t imagine many would disagree with that, but there are simply too many things Abreu does on a daily basis that can’t be measured by WAR or anything else. Hell if half of the recruiting stories are true, he's already earned his contract before he ever won his MVP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny lost and the Tribe are down 3-0 in the 6th... Wasn’t it a 7 game homestand? The first three games of that stretch were in KC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Looked at my phone while out for an “escape” walk...GameDay app says Mercedes, out/s. Then trying to figure out what kind of play Merrifield made to gun down Moncada. Oh no, we’re going to screw it up in extras, Hendriks doesn’t do well in tie games, etc. Or we’ll send Ruiz or Marshall out there. Remembers the best opportunity with Davis’ offspeed stuff is a Grandal is walk or WP. At the same time, nearly, the A’s were scoring against the Twins in a similar wild pitch scenario to take the 7-6 lead in the top of ninth. Positive, Minnesota fans spared another extra innings heartbreaker. And thank God for TA. Edited May 16, 2021 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said it was a clear picture. I said I am not writing KC and Cleveland off in the middle of May. I have seen a lot of baseball this season and in years past on which to base that opinion.

But he reacted like he missed him. To me on the angle from third base it looks like the catchers mitt bends back as Jose is sliding by and then moves forward. It is extremely close, not surprised it wasn't overturned, and of course really happy he was called safe. Just saying if I was a Royals fan I would be mad about it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sox' fortunes will totally be a result of what they do or don't do with the tools they have. They only reason you cannot write off KC or CLE is because someone will be there to benefit should the Sox simply wet themselves this summer.

That was the angle that convinced me that he was really safe. I think Matheny is wrong on this one. Edited May 16, 2021 by skooch 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, you're totally correct, my bad, 5-2 home stand...I misheard Benetti, he mentioned the Sox with a series split of the Royals would be 8-2 the last divisional games, somehow I misconstrued it as a home stand 😯 Edited May 17, 2021 by MexSoxFan#1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
