This is our organizational philosophy... give up a lot of walks.. take none, strike out a lot and hit a lot of ground balls. championship recipe for sure. How about Grandal's walk rate: 2021: 23.2% 2022: 12.0% 2023: 7.3% they realize that the runner gets to go to first base after a walk, right?

It is fair to say though, that the Sox pitiful offense puts a lot of pressure on our pitchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking more they aren't pitching around Yasmani as they did when he had power to fear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been too many of these games this year. Robert needs to lay off breaking pitches out of the zone, and make more contact with RISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Seriously why does TA stink? Remember looking at the box score every day and many many times TA with 2, 3 hits. Now he blows. Not sure he'll attract much in a trade. No power. Horrific pitch recognition, always been adequate but nothing special at SS. Yikes. Rite now he's a .250 hitter with zero power and no ability to draw walks. Other than that he's Luis Aparicio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not even close to Aparicio who was one of the finest defensive shortstops in history and really "changed the game" by bringing back the lost art of the stolen base. He led the American League in that category for nine consecutive seasons. TA pardon the expression, "can't make a pimple on his rear end" as my dad used to say. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close to a player I like on this team. Cease comes close to being likeable. Ditto Burger yet I realize Burger is horrific on D and all or nothing at the plate. My last fave player: Abreu of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
