Hell yeah Braden!

1 will be enough! 🫥

Jose Urquidy apology thread

Yeah TBH, once Sandlin and Noah get out of the mandatory post-option timeout, I also think that one of those two is likely able to give you some good innings

TBH, I still don't have a good read on how Getz/braintrust feels about Thorpe. For all I know, they see him as an emergency option only.

Well there's a reason I listed him third. It's like in Inglourious Basterds... he speaks German third best.

I think it's reasonably likely that somebody out of Urquidy, Thorpe, and Cannon can do well enough in the rotation. Just might take some pain to figure out which one it is.

Just my opinion, you have to just give Urquidy the start tomorrow. That's what he's here for. Don't waste a trustworthy reliever in the first inning of a game that you don't even know will be worth using good relievers in. Urquidy is a starter, let him pitch. If he pitches badly, then that's useful information to use as you decide who deserves to be on the roster.

I think they ultimately concluded that they couldn't win the game without Richards getting through that inning and that was probably true. He almost did, but no joy. I'm ready for some Jose Urquidy tomorrow, please don't waste a reliever by using an opener.

Well not too bad of a game. I think Sox outplayed them by a bit tonight. They got a lucky double and it paid off

Peters noodle

TBH I think I'm working from MLB the Show ratings from like 2 years ago

Big pitch. IIRC, Conforto is a reverse splits guy

So I think Newcomb may have been up only for a save? Seems like the likeliest explanation unless he comes in to pitch to PCA

We love leadoff doubles off the end of the bat

No bueno

Break their hearts Mune!

There's been a few times where it seemed like Newcomb was only available if we ran out of guys

great start to the AB

I like seeing Peters jump on that curveball

He's got a very risey heater which should make it play up a bit

I don't think it's good if batters don't have to worry about the changeup from Richards

Noooo not Webb in the bullpen

Telling Caulfield to name names should be a bannable offense on Soxtalk

The problem is it's technically the umps calling the shots and the umps aren't going to eagerly agree that they were hoodwinked by the groundskeeper
