He was 22 during that HR I believe. ty, that's awesome. I was just watching some cano clips but didn't see that one.

Astros TV pimping Sox' rebuild on air with graphics.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 10:36 PM) That ain't gonna happen. Plus Abreu has worked hard to improve at 1B 50/50 split needs to happen though. He's still a bad defender at 1B and only getting older.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 10:35 PM) Moncada has reached base 14 times in his last 25 plate appearances. Is that good?

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 10:34 PM) Man that swing is sexy Ball hit the ground and sped up.

Moncada already with the Cano move of 75% running on a frozen rope in a 7-0 run game late. lmao. Kid's a natural man.

That was a nasty f***ing pitch. Wow. That's like turning the pitching machine up to 10/10 and putting the tilt on.

QUOTE (SonofaRoache @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 10:25 PM) Also, if we lose out on the number pick and pick 3rd, I wont be mad if it meant our young guys have shown signs of life. We can still draft an all star at 3 or 4. Delmonico to 1B and Jose full time to DH. The talk needs to happen this offseason. It will only help Abreu prolong his career.

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 10:21 PM) This series is so baseball, of course we would be dominating the Astros. Their reddit is a "fun" place right now.

Just watched the TA double. That has to be one of his best swings of the year . f*** YEA. Show some signs kid.

Leury has earned himself a starting spot in '18.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 09:42 PM) Timmy just shut me up haha...only took like 4 hanging sliders for him to finally hammer one but at least he got it!! That's one more than he usually hits.

Right size, wrong shape, love how Moncada is being aggressive though. Ah, he just missed it.

Renteria doesn't have these guys ready to play on a nightly basis right now. Some of it is the talent level but I'm souring on rick as a leader. He's obviously awful tactically.

lolwut

This team f***ing sucks.

TA is just a guess hitter and a bad one.

QUOTE (Scoots @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) Will be sad to see Delmonico go when Davidson gets back. He's had some good at bats and is making great contact. By the time he's back rosters will have expanded.

This kid will not swing at junk. Love it.

oh man he should have crushed that.

QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 06:40 PM) Actually I'm wrong, a lot of those guys were in Birmingham, but it would have been an interesting point if it was true. lol

QUOTE (TheFutureIsNear @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 06:20 PM) I don't see how pitching out of the pen is going to help Fulmer's problems. It would be one thing if he was having control problems but still missing bats, but that's just not the case. His K/BB ratio is comically bad and wasn't much better when he was 22 in AA last year. Bad control and inability to miss bats just isn't a good combo. Maybe I'm biased because I didn't like the pick form day 1, but I have very little hope for Fulmer ever being a quality pitcher in any role. Hopefully he can prove me wrong though. They f***ed up the pick the minute they let any "he can help us this year" thinking enter the equation. Thankfully that thinking has gone out the window.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 9, 2017 -> 03:39 PM) L. Garcia lf Y. Sanchez 3b Abreu 1b A. Garcia rf Moncada 2b Delmonico dh Anderson ss Narvaez c Engel cf That actually looks like a MLB lineup. A s*** one, but a MLB lineup.
