Ball is gonna fly out of the park this summer

someone on twitter was actually speculating they might have a bit of a bond because of their mutual troubles. hey, maybe, who the fuck knows.

So, uh, this happened:

Not making outs matters and the Sox have a core of guys now that don't make a lot of outs. Eloy is also the perfect compliment to those guys when he comes back. Walk and a blast, rinse repeat.

lol, ironic AF given his ending in Chicago and move to the Sunshine State. Ozzie is good personality and a good guy but he's also full of shit sometimes.

Vaughn will be another one of those guys soon as well. Those guys are fucking great. They burn through pitchers as well.

TLR does unconventional things with his pen, it's very ozzie like. I myself thought it was bat shit insane to have Crochett come out for another inning but then again what did I always fucking rail against RV and Rickie for -- burning through relievers when they clearly had great stuff that night because of some "well you can't throw ___ guy two innings". It was unconventional and Garrett paid off his coache's faith in him. As did Yermin, who I was saying should sit tonight and at least be moved down in the order. I dunno, we can parse this shit every night down to most minute decisions and really over the course of a season talent wins out more than not. The manager just has to get out of the way, we'll see if TLR can do that effectively enough when it matters.

not to get too offtopic but in the last 10 years RealGM bulls forum has gone downhill big time and Soxtalk has gotten much, much better. two forums going opposite directions, one improving user base, user interface, other one, losing users with a tired, buggy, not updated in 15 years interface. i hardly even post on realgm anymore.

welcome man, glad to see a fellow old head, assuming you're the same old wookie that posts on bulls forums as wel.

lol, it wasn't the greatest move to pull Dallas after 80 I'll say that: but Codi can't come in and walk two guys with a 5 run lead and Marshall is just, well, not good either. Glad the team got the win and picked Codi and Evan up. I can see the explanation for pulling Dallas too as he has struggled 3rd time through all year and maybe he wanted to leave a good taste in his mouth and give his pen a clean inning. Shit managed to work out, somehow.

Crazy 4D chess from TLR letting Detroit tie it so Yermin could regain confidence.

not exactly like bummer has been light's out either. I have no idea if Dallas said he was done or what but in hindsight given how shit the pen is it was a bad decision. Then fucking again they had A 5 RUN LEAD WITH 9 OUTS LEFT. Like come the fuck on. A MLB reliever should not come out and fall behind and walk guys in that scenario.

good job we need to elevate Crochett to the 7th inning guy.

dude you way over reacted to some good natured ribbing after you wrote an epic poem in the game thread that would make Homer blush. you then continued to respond after I tried to give you an out, keep drinking big boy you're obviously in full command.

this shit Tigers team is hot I said it coming into the series.

paint.

enjoy your night.
