  1. Maybe, but his velocity is still down from last year...he’s fighting himself out there. And another reason we needed that 4-1 lead desperately.
  2. Getting up and under every single changeup. Drifting high. Then not getting strike calls with FB because all over the place.
  3. 4-1 lead sorta feels like game over. Would have used Grandal or Mercedes there...and lived with undermining Collins’ confidence. Have to crush the Twins’ spirits/step on their throats.
  4. Collins blown away by fastballs...sounds like a familiar refrain.
  5. Vaughn really getting more and more confident...ripped that ball.
  6. Have to let Vaughn hit, unless PH Yermin or Grandal....or Yermin, then Grandal in defensively. Definitely not putting Yermin anywhere near the field of play.
  7. Looked like a strike...really close. Benefit of doubt to accomplished veteran.
  8. Those Boston jerseys are still ugly as hell and needlessly remind one of the Giolito Patriots Day massacre.
  9. A bit telling they are going for Mendick over Madrigal defensively...is Nick unavailable today?
  10. Stabilized the game for the time being. Need to get the offense jolted back to life against Pineda. Yermin attack-mode hacking away energy, or something, but Abreu is already DHing.
  11. Benetti, Lynn in a million years will never ask to NOT go after that last out of the inning there.
  12. Left hand batters have hurt him...so of course Foster faces a lhb. Well, that worked out at least.
  13. Wonder if the defensive changes were TLR’s idea there...?
  14. He would make a decent bullfighter...or sumo wrestler.
  15. Why would you be bunting for a hit with two outs and no readily apparent bunting ability?
  16. Astudillo might take 30 seconds to retrieve an errant throw past first base.
  17. This much is true...Foster needs to start innings clean. Like bringing in Rodon in those situations down the stretch last year. Pineda absolutely cruising through this weak sauce lineup. Really miss Mercedes, Grandal and even Madrigal. Or Mendick could have started at second...but he’s not left handed, lol.
  18. Used to be Heuer. Now it’s a black hole. Ruiz, potentially. Too bad no Cordero.
  19. What other velocity was possible after a bazillion pitches the last two innings at his age? Still harder than Lucas has typically been throwing. Had late life down in the zone.
