Ozzie for Manager

Everyone needs a call they are known for. That is Schiff's

Hagen can't go back out. Cash in the chips now and walk away

How is this guy still in the game

Just stupid baseball. Don't make the first out at 3rd stretching it

I don't think anyone thought fedde would be any better than that. Castillo is irrelevant to bannister and the sox since he just got here. That surprises me about Kay. Honestly he gives us a chance to win every game and with a 9-5 record, a sub 4 ERA and getting better as the season goes on he has exceeded my expectations. I don't know what you expected but he hasn't had an ERA under 5.14 in 6 MLB seasons prior. What they are and what they are compared to expectations are 2 different things. We spent nothing on SPs so I feel we game exceeded expectations. Outside of Schultz of course. But we have to sign some guys next year. You can't have this rotation next year

I'm not all for giving up on Colson but someone needs to look at his approach. 22 Ks in his last 37 ABs, only 4 walks says it is getting worse and not better. Maybe try to drive the ball the opposite way. The first pitch he should look for a pitch in a small box and don't swing if it's not there. Adam Sunn was considered the worst modern day player in terms of K % at about 35%. Colson is at 37% this year.

I'll take a 30+ pitch inning. But that was just poor hitting

Sox can take a really promising inning and really s%*# the bed sometimes

I agree with you there. Smith is a complete bust. Schultz has been a disappointment and oppor a disaster. It's definitely concerning for the future

No way to tell but overall I think we all can agree that the staff is much better than expected. Burke is a stud. Kay has been excellent and better than e thought. Martin has gone bad the last few weeks. Fedde has been fine and I think better than expected. Schultz has been the biggest disappointment.

The numbers refute that. ERA 13th in mlb WHIP 14th Runs allowed 17th His allowed 10th Far from a disaster. Pretty much slightly above average And better than we all expected.

There's is 1 run due to bradens error

If anyone needs an opener it's martin

Got to be with those numbers. Might be the only thing we salvage from that trade for cease.

It's Crapa, not Capra. And after looking Vinny up I have to correct myself. Capra has a .133 career batting average so he is only slightly better than romo. Vinny is actually having a hell of a year in AAA for Boston

Another stat. I found the lowest OPS in the last 30 years for players with 200 plate appearances. Drew is at 154 plate appearances i think. Drew Romo would be the 4th worst the last 30 years. Here are 3 worse.

Korey Lee hit above .250 in 40 plate appearances last year and had a .4 defensive WAR and a .3 overall. Romo is -.5 and. 1 defensively. Even though lee wasn't good his other years he is still light years ahead of romo offensively. Romo makes Vinny Crapa look like Luis Arraez. He is so bad offensively you have to do something else. Like release him. 7-81 is what he has done lately. You literally can't find a worse player. I don't care if he is ivan Rodriguez behind the plate. He is costing you runs and games. Romo had 1 extra base hit the last 2 months.

What a great problem to have. Toomany top IF prospects. If Roch is the real deal then colson and Carlson could be expendable for stud pitching.

I never understood why some posters wanted him benched and traded. He's a top 5 second baseman in baseball. Everyone wants every new guy to be Mike trout instantly. Even trout struggled his first year.

Come on hicks. Tighten up

Had no knowledge of my Alma master either. ECU is not some small school when it comes to baseball. We have like 8 or 9 MLB players rostered this year

Romo in a 7-80 slump. No way Haase can be worse

I had the pleasure of watching Williams pitch in college in person for a few years. I really wanted us to draft him. His stuff is ridiculous but he's had control problems but this past month had turned the corner.

Are we sure venable went to Princeton. Education there has really gone downhill.

Hasse hits .224 for his career. Bring him up. It can't be worse.
