you must have an amazing sense of humor because no one really said much interesting.

Goodwin: .930 OPS vs righties

Soxtalk: "Why the hell did Tony bat Goodwin against a righty?"

Goodwin is out of options so it'd likely be a release if he goes.

This board never disappoints if your looking for a good laugh.  I think they should pack everything up and call it a season lol!

Hall of Fame baseball person.

But Goodwin has a 1000wrc+ and an OPS of 100000.05 against righties. Never mind the big slump he is in.

You can question how sustainable it is, but Goodwin definitely doesn't get enough credit for how well he's hit this year

but the pixie dust has probably worn off

lol.... hit and run in that situation.

dumb ass

The fact that you called it a “hit and run” automatically means your opinion is worthless. 

I would have ran Engel there also. I said as much before the pitch.

LOL, +1. 10 runs in 5 games. Offensive slumps are part of the season. Ozzie and Pods aren’t worried, neither am I.

then you are a dumb ass - if i said that in the right order.

 

you never see that strategy in that situation.

Goodwin shouldn’t even be on the team and he definitely is not a center fielder! Is anyone besides me getting tired of watching Anderson stand st the plate spit and play with himself and then hit a bad pitch and jog half hearted down the line. If this jackass is the face of our franchise then we are in real trouble. At least Abreau hustles and sets a decent example. It makes me sick to think we let 3 all stars go to keep Anderson who is an absolute ass hole.

He’s also like 1 for his last month.

The point is that there is way too much overreaction if they play poorly for a week or two.  EVERY team has stretches when things aren't going well.  You come back tomorrow and keep playing....

That is also because of Goodwin being a double play candidate.

yeah he has grounded into... ZERO double plays this year

lol..

Huh? The right order? It wasn’t a hit and run and it wasn’t a run and hit. It was sending the runner on a full count to avoid a double play. It happens a lot in baseball. If you’re not going to do it just because it’s the 9th inning, then you shouldn’t do it in any inning. A strike out and a line out are what you are hoping doesn’t happen. It was unlucky. It happens.

Wow, this is an even hotter take than I expected to see. You've outdone yourself soxtalk.

goodwin had not grounded into a double play all year though...

I get that the count was 3-2 and the runner goes sometimes - but when you are down to your last outs...
