Indians @ Sox 5/1--3:00 Central
Leury has had the game winning RBI the last 3 games he has started. If Tony hadn't screwed up and not started him Friday, we could have won that game too. Got to think he wins Player of The Month..................................

Indians @ Sox, 4/30
Okay TLR was one of the two. Who the hell was the other one?

Indians @ Sox, 4/30
I would have left Vaughn in once Robert got on base. I know the guy is a ground ball pitcher but Vaughn could tie the game in that spot. But Leury, Madrigal and TA all hit ground balls so it is fair to assume Vaughn would have also. Take the next 2

Indians @ Sox, 4/30
What??? Leury knocked in 5 runs in the doubleheader including the game winner in each game. He should be a fixture in the lineup........................................................... till he cools off.

Tigers @ Sox, 4/29/21
I assume this is a doubleheader and not separate admissions. With a night doubleheader and blah weather, I guess each fan/group who attends each gets their own private grandstand section.

Tigers @ Sox, 4/28/21
Maybe that was Katz's call.

Which pending FA should Sox target at deadline?
No way. Bochy is retired and retired managers never come back. The guy is 66 years old. ........................................

The TLR Manager Thread
Poppy: Agree, but forgetting how many outs there were is not hindsight. More a senior moment.

Tigers @ Sox
Yes, Duncan woke Tony up when he dozed off during games.

Theories as to why offense behind pitching so far?
But if you look at teams above and below the . 232 average, hot weather teams and cold weather teams are pretty split. For example, Red Sox and White Sox are 1 & 3 and both are colder cities than Arizona, Atlanta, Tampa and Toronto which are all below average. But Maybe teams that don't preach launch angle, if there are any, could skew the numbers. I think shifts and the move to nerdy baseball is the main cause

The Makings of a Juggernaut?
So basically all of our prospects are going to pan out...fine. I think realistically some of our prospects will be fine and some will fail. Others will be traded and we don't care what they do.

If Yermin hits over .400 this season, is he the MVP?
We scored 9 runs and had 16 hits. Can't fault TLR for the results.
-
That’s a Chicago Yermins Win!!!!
Let's hope we don't reach .500 for the rest of the season.

Texas @ Sox
Cease is listed on ESPN as starter

MLB Batting
Agree cold weather definitely affects hitting. But remember this is the lowest in history. I am sure there has been colder Aprils. I think the original record was .236 in 1967. I would guess that also occurred in April.

MLB Batting
I read yesterday that the average MLB batting average is .233. That is the lowest in history . I heard a Boston media person say there has been a lot of day games this year so far. I wonder if that has affected batting?

Sox @ Cleveland 4/21 postponed
I would also add that the under 30 generation will not sit through a 4 hour game. Maybe even under 50. Now the 70+ generation can watch for a few hours , take a nap and catch the 9th

Sox @ Cleveland 4/21 postponed
I don't agree on replay. It is long in every sport. I think it is worse in the NBA. They not only have to review the "issue" they also have to review the clock. Basketball and football also have more reviews based on last 2 minutes issues.
-
Sox @ Cleveland 4/21 postponed
I do too but this isn't necessarily just a Covid change. Several in national media are promoting this as another way to speed up games.
-
Madrigal.
Hopefully he puts a lot of extra work into his defensive play. The kid can hit and he can make himself a good defensive 2nd baseman. He does not seem to have great quickness so his technique and positional play are important. A team with numerous power hitters needs OBP guys to supplement run production.

Contract extension for Yermin?
Even worse, Yermin's ERA ballooned to 9 today.

4-19 GT: Sox @ Boston (10:10am)
He was pitching like it was 10:00am but the game was at 11:00am

Contract extension for Yermin?
Let's hope we don't lose our hottest hitter to dead-arm tomorrow

4-19 GT: Sox @ Boston (10:10am)
It was a perfect bunt but Madrigal gave it away by turning around too early. Eovaldi was off the mound before Madrigal left the box.
-
4-19 GT: Sox @ Boston (10:10am)
Madrigal had a good idea but he advertised it too early.
