OmarComing25 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Sep 16, 2015 -> 10:09 AM) They were 50-52 on July 31. They’ve gone 27-15 since then. The Sox were 49-52 on July 31. They’ve gone 19-23 since then. Although even if the Sox had gone 27-15, they’d only be in 2nd place in the division and one game back for the 2nd wild card. Should have double-checked. The morning of July 30th the Sox were 49-50, and the Rangers were 48-52. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flavum Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Buehrle needs 3 more starts and average 7 innings to get to 200 innings. Doesn't look good for that to keep going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Good read, made me sad. All of which might point to Washington being a good coach: encouraging, engaged and full of faith in his players. And Semien’s second-half improvement in the field has been remarkable. His fielding percentage is up almost 50 points, to .973 from .925. Since June 1, Semien ranks in the MLB top 10 in defensive runs saved at shortstop with 5. Though his UZR is still last in the league, it’s almost three runs in the black since the break. And using Baseball Info Solutions data over that same stretch, his ratio of good fielding plays to defensive misplays & errors has gone from .034 to 0.63 -- not great (the MLB average is around 1.0), but up into Ian Desmond territory and headed in the right direction. Through the power of the possible, Semien has gone from awful to asset. In short, he's looking like a shortstop. "There was going to be some growing pains -- which there were -- but here recently, the last couple of months, it’s been a night-and-day difference," A’s skipper Bob Melvin observed. "He’s put in a lot of hard work at one o’clock in the afternoon with Ron Washington. For a guy who plays every day on top of that, it’s really a credit to how hard he works." "He’s still not a finished product," Washington said. "There’s still a lot that we’ll address in spring training." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personal stats like that shouldn't be that important to them. Gibbons said if Buehrle needs another inning or two he might bring him back on short rest to pitch in the last game of the year out of the pen. It would suck to see him miss it this year as many believe he is going to retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
