Where does Tim Anderson's FOD walk-off rate in Sox homer lore?

People sitting back and waiting for baseball to properly showcase their stars will be waiting until they die for that to happen. -
Where does Tim Anderson's FOD walk-off rate in Sox homer lore?
Look at Ray Ray Run replied to VAfan's topic in Pale Hose Talk
The reason it was huge was because for my money this guy deserves and should be the face of the game. This not only threw the team onto the national stage in a grand way, but it did it by showcasing the team and leagues most likable and enthusiastic star who is honest and real when it comes to discussing the games short comings when it comes to growing the brand. It was a game viewed nationally by a casual audience who got to see what a fun baseball player can look like and do for the game. -

Reason I don't go with Blum is because the game wasn't over. We still had to get 3 outs. Scotty's was... let's go home folks, that's all she wrote. I think I might have Konerko slam ahead of Blum too, but I was at game 2 so it has a special place in my heart. -

Tim was the best regular season moment for me. Nothing can top Scotty Pods though. It was just so unlikely and incredible and important. -

I honestly have no idea why anyone thinks there's a difference in when these two guys pitch. They're both going to be pitching back to back. The inning that they do so is kind of irrelevant. -

Kimbrel blew a 3 run lead two outings ago. Fact is the dominant unhittable back end has blown 2 3+ run leads in a week. -
Rodon to IL with Shoulder Fatigue

Speed certainly isn't more helpful than world class training, nutrition and etc that has taken off. It may give you some energy but it's not helping with recovery. -
Rodon to IL with Shoulder Fatigue
Look at Ray Ray Run replied to CentralChamps21's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It's amazing, conditioning, exercise and nutrition and etc have improved ten fold over the past two decades, but for some reason position players in baseball need 20-30 games of rest per year to stay fresh while their counterparts 20-30 years ago took about 5-10 days off a season. Load management for position players in baseball is a load of garbage. Pitchers, because they've become so max effort are a different story. -
Sox at Twins 8/10, 7:10

What have I ever stolen from anyone exactly? Pretty bold accusations. Care to cite a single instance? Thanks in advance. -

Cesar Hernandez is getting on base for the Sox
Look at Ray Ray Run replied to VAfan's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It has more to do with the base itself being considered the keystone base, so the position just adopted the same name. -
Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
Look at Ray Ray Run replied to Baron's topic in Pale Hose Talk
To be fair, you literally refused to acknowledge any logical argument in rebuttal of the move because you were euphoric over the idea that the Sox acquired the big piece for the first time in forever; which is fine. I actually get the mindset 100%, as I wanted them to push the chips in and this move certainly signified that. Now I would have shoved all my chips in a different direction, but the moral of the story is still that they shoved and it's exciting to watch your team shove. -
Sox Acquire Kimbrel; Madrigal, Heuer to Cubs
Look at Ray Ray Run replied to Baron's topic in Pale Hose Talk
This is a tricky one for me. The reliever aspect of this makes it tougher. In order for Kimbrel to be worth his price, the Sox need to not only get that far in the playoffs, but also play in close enough games that him being used over a replacement was significant enough for his impact to be a big reason why the Sox won. This is why I'll forever be frustrated that the Sox didn't go after Bryant and a lesser reliever perhaps; or just Bryant. Bryant impacts every inning of the game - regardless of score. Kimbrel impacts the game only in circumstances where the leverage was high enough and the game close enough that having him over someone else is incredibly valuable. As I have said prior, paying extra to have him next year is just a waste of prospect/player capital because you could have just signed a top reliever next year and paid him less money and gotten 95% of the productivity that Kimbrel would give you, and I'll argue until I'm blue in the face that there is no guarantee that Kimbrel is absolutely dominant next year; all without giving up Madrigal/Codi. If the Sox, say, lose in the first round this year then you paid a premium to use a guy in situations that never came up. That's obviously the risk of trading for any rental, but even more so a reliever rental imo. -
Optimal lineup 1. Tim 2. Luis 3. Yoan 4. Abreu 5. Eloy 6. Grandal 7. Vaughn 8. Cesar 9. Engel
-
Some of the worst luck I've seen.
-
Yoan is now 6/46 on hard hit balls his season. Unreal.
-
Cesar Hernandez is way way way better than Leury Garcia. Whatever idiot said they're pretty similar should ban himself.
-
Eloy lol Guy hit that off the end of the bat and was out front.
-
Maybe I'm wrong and it is up to Jerry, but no RSN announcers were traveling with the teams.
-
Jerry has ownership stake in NBC Sports Chicago; the decision on things like this is 100% not up to Jerry Reinsdorf imo. No RSN announcers were/are traveling with the teams. This is NBC cutting costs. Maybe Jerry could overrule but who knows.
-
I mean, the radio crew travels. I don't think this is a Jerry decision. This is NBC.

ahh, you beat me to it.
