For sure. Losses are frustrating, but are we really expecting this team to do anything? This year is all about development. Today I've enjoyed seeing the patience from Moncada and the hit/stolen base from Timmy. In my opinion, the next "building" aspect of this rebuild is going to be the bullpen, which hopefully will start being built next off-season. That thankfully should not require nearly as.much development time, as pens usually don't.

With Engel at the plate? Not like he's driving anybody in anytime soon. Would rather have Tim steal 3rd and get home on a ground out or sac fly, which would have been had Verlander not turned during his motion.

Eh, that wasn't horrible. At least not.on Anderson's part. Verlander just caught him stealing 3rd. Wasnt the 1st or 3rd out of the inning. Omar maybe was the one who didn't play that smart running to 2nd. Unless it was a double steal.

There's the James Shields we all know and love. But he's the leader of the young pitchers they say.

Well He has started more games than any other starter, and the Sox have had like 4 games postponed

Love how I don't have to zoom in with my phone Everytime I log in. This is wonderful.

Yeah it was loooongg overdue

Um, Shields nice looking 123 first inning striking Correa out looking

If there is one player I feel bad for, it is Jose Abreu. He deserves so much better than what he has had the last 4 years.

One thing about it, this has been a very well umpired game.

This game isn't gonna go any faster with Shields on the mound. Dude takes his sweet time up there. Unless he gives up a run.

Hell of an outing from Rondon. Hang a gold star in his locker.

Nice quick inning. One would have to think Rondon comes in for the 13th, no?

If the Sox get out of this, and let's say they don't score next inning, Rondon pitches the 12th, really who comes in to pitch the 13th? Do they put in one of the starters?

I wonder if the Athletics made more money yesterday just on concessions while letting in everyone for free than they have today with admission/concessions combined with hardly anyone being at the park.

Holy wow Moncada keep it up!

Nice play there

Wegner...

I PREDICT...Yolmer stolen base and Nicky doubles

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 18, 2018 -> 07:48 PM) The rebroadcast of this game is supposed to start at 7. I know what I?€™m doing tonight. Your emotions will be toyed with.

I don't even care that it saved the game. Moncada needs that for his mental state. What a game kid.

Why the hell is it so hard for PROFESSIONAL baseball pitchers to throw consistent strikes?

How long does the pen last? Two thirds?

This thread is so bipolar lol. Another stolen base. I love the aggressiveness.
