At this point no worse than 4-3 on the road trip is a must. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 58 minutes ago, hankchifan said: Overall a badly managed and coached game, along with the usual defense shortcomings. They looked flat and Vaughn doesn't belong in the outfield. Slow with no range. And Lopez should have pitched the 8th. The team generated some excitement but now they're right back to .500.

Lip Man 1 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 (edited) Hearing just a few minutes ago the best guess for roster moves this week is that Bummer and Moncada are activated with Peyton and Haseley sent back out. That from one of the beat writers. No word on Kopech. Cairo also said pregame Robert will be in the lineup Monday if his wrist is OK. (Haven't we heard THAT before about a half dozen times...)

Stinky Stanky Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Offense was what you'd expect after a 13 run outburst the day before. A Law Of Nature. The Good Gio showed up. Although this is a different Gio than his short-lived glory days of a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Sounds like they’re trying to get the field ready in Cleveland. We’ll see. Gotta get two innings in and make it a Guardians loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t have it anymore when he first sucked with us, then he had it with that sick change when he was good, and now he’s sitting 92-93 and getting shelled. Is it in there?

If I had to guess, simply my opinion there's three reasons for his struggles (in no particular order): Had put on 20 pounds of muscle and it has altered his mechanics His contract situation, remember how he said he was angry with what the Sox were contesting? Bad, lousy Sox defense which has put him in some tough situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the Sox have 109 wins in them...seems pretty unlikely at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Robert was OK today, he should have been in the game, if not starting at least pinch hitter or runner and/or defensive replacement. We are in a tight pennant race, let’s win a game at a time.

They’re also quite likely just 2 GB and Cleveland is reeling and Twins heading to play a 4 games series against a team they haven’t been able to beat in eons. It’s wild that all it took was a 4 game win streak to get them back in the thick, but they very much are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankchifan Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 2 hours ago, chw42 said: They had a great chance to take a lead in the 7th, but bad coaching and execution cost them. Haseley should have either been waved home on Pollock's double or he should have been off with the pitch on the squeeze. I just looked at the the replay of Pollock's double and the throw completely missed the cut-off man and bounced slowly to home plate. Haseley was basically around third and stopping as the throw missed the cut-off man. He could have scored on that. Super Joe is either too aggressive or too conservative. Shouldn’t be back as 3rdbase coach next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
