fathom Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Still shocked he let PK and Flowers face the righty closer. Oh well, great to have Avi back. Edited August 17, 2014 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGajewski18 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 08:52 PM) Go Mets! Go Padres! Both will be 1/2 game ahead (or behind, depending on how you look at it) for that 9th secured first round pick YAY! We still have Bellysaurius for 2 more years after this. Top 11 is protected.

SoxAce Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) One of the rare times that I don't mind the loss minus last season. Avi looked like he hasn't missed a beat. Edited August 17, 2014 by SoxAce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 08:06 PM) Top 11 is protected. Yes, but today we were out of it (at the start of the day), because 11th is Seattle, and SD and the Mets both had a 1/2 game worse record, so we would have been 12th.

caulfield12 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 08:01 PM) False I don't know where Farmer and DJ got that idea. They were saying "we have him for two more years, we have to use him and get him back to form" and they don't even have to offer him a contract for next year. Pretty big mistake for the team's broadcasters not to know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vance Law Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 09:06 PM) Top 11 is protected. It's only the top (bottom) 10 teams. It will be 11 picks next year because Houston will get a bonus for not signing their #1 this year. So assuming Houston is one of the worst teams, it is Houston plus 9 more teams getting a protected pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 I see the bullpen failed again tonight albeit against a good team. Good game except for the horses*** bullpen again. With Minnie winning Sox creeping closer to the cellar for the second year in a row. Avi baby! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 17, 2014 -> 12:00 AM) This ump has one of the smallest zones of the year You'd think the umps would have some self respect. Baseball goes to replay because the umps are basically making so many mistakes it's laughable. Now they have all these overturned calls, you'd think they'd be embarrassed, but ... Part Two: Baseball tells its new commish to speed up games. One of the reasons games are so long is umpires refuse to call a pitch over the belt a strike. Umps have their own strike zone. I contend it's been a silent protest all these years, i.e., you can make the rules but we'll call the game the way we want! If they'd call a pitch above the belt a strike, it would make hitters, uh, swing a bit more. Umpires anger me so much. I wish they'd clean house on them.

Yes, it's more of a comment on over reacting too early or based on a single inning/event. Instead of looking at the bigger picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
