Piscotty should be fined heavily in kangaroo court for wearing that thing. Or Canha. Or both.

why don't they give Hector a shot at starting? He can't possibly be any worse than Migo could he?

 

Strongly agree.

Oh how can you not love Abreu

3 runs scored for Yoan today! Glad I started him on all of my fantasy teams haha

Our run producer produces. Beautiful hit there. So nice to finally be hitting with RISP again.

Even as a bad team they are due for some hits with RISP....hopefully it can last for a little bit.

This game is fun

 

It is. It's also a huge relief. You can feel the guys relaxing a bit.

hey look it's the other team's turn to pull the IF in down 4 runs in the early innings. just bad managing. let the run score, get the out. so what you're down 5 instead of 4 in the 4th.

Atta boy Davidson.

 

Live bet the Sox over 8.5 runs after last inning. Bingo-bango.

I know Houston is coming to town, but I really hope this is the start of at least a 3 game win streak. They need to win a bit right now and remember what it feels like. Especially at home.

Anyone getting annoyed by the dude in the stands close to a mic constantly going "Come on Sox. Let's go. Let's go Sox."... Lol... it's in a dead pan voice and just getting on my nerves.

houston has been scuffling a little, might not be a bad time to play them.

Hard hit ball by Leury. Can't get upset with him there.

 

This guy hadn't given up a hit all season. Right?

The team did win both series last year against Houston. I think they even swept them once.

 

On the other hand, that was the first strikeout of the game? Wow, maybe the weather does play a part in the Sox offense...

4 hr game today. Hi Rob Manfred.

CBS lead fantasy baseball guy with some nice thoughts on Yoan today:

nothing we haven't covered, but the dude is a solid regular sporting a 35% K rate. The sky is the limit for him.

There's been a lot of attention paid to the funky motion with Fulmer's arms but to me it's his lower half that's costing him. When his left foot lands, his leg is completely stiff and you can see how it totally redirects his forward momentum. Instead of a smooth trajectory towards home it kind of swings his weight over the front leg. It gives him basically no margin for error with his release point because if his timing is slightly off he'll either release it much too high or much too low.

 

When he lands it's not completely stiff. His leg stiffens up as he stops forward momentum. Lots of pitchers do this. It's part of the disconnect between the lower and upper half.

It’s a spot on analysis. The only question with Yoan is not if he’ll be good but how good he’ll be. The floor is crazy high and there are only a handful of players with bigger ceilings than him.

Not watching but trying to follow at work... TA with another walk? How many is that on the year?

Giving it all right back now

Moncada...good.

Pitching...bad.

 

The bullpen doesn’t make me feel confident. 9-7 Sox

Bullpen is terrible

Bummer kinda sucks. Which is weird because he shouldnt, given the movement on his pitches. Reminds me of my first exposure to Boone Logan

Annnd this is why we called another long reliever
