Should just be keeping him as opener and now we are using him stupidly as a fireman I guess.Him as the opener was so dumb. We don't have enough late inning guys to have him wasted for 1, maybe two innings to start the game.

9 hours ago9 hr I love this trend of holding the bat at a 90 degree angle with a close stance. I wish I was 20 years younger would love to try that style out.

I think sometimes he knows his stuff is so good that he just kind of seems lackadaisical a bit, but when you watch that at bat against Witt you see him locked in. It’s like when he knows there’s no room for error he just looks more locked in from the start of the at bat as opposed to I know my stuff is better then you so I’m just probably going to get you out.
9 hours ago9 hr Am I crazy or does Peters grip his bat like a little kid that isn’t strong enough to swing a wooden bat?

9 hours ago9 hr Sam is a natural hitter. There's no way he's not a 120 OPS+ guy the next 5 years. I can't really remember a Sox that reminds me of him. Maybe young Mags, but he was righty and had way more power, but the plate coverage and mind is similar.
9 hours ago9 hr Peters has minor league options so I think he is pretty likely to go down to Charlotte if everybody gets healthy soon.

9 hours ago9 hr Author Who doesn't get their uniform dirty? Yoan would lay in the dirt when he got a ball 2" inside, and he'd bail, waiting for the trainers to run out. That gets your uniform dirty, too.
9 hours ago9 hr 1 minute ago, fathom said:Unless they overrate the grinder aspectMy guess is if anything, they'll overrate the left-handed aspect. But I think Getz really likes using minor league options to avoid making hard roster decisions, so that probably prevails.

9 hours ago9 hr I know im late to this but WTF is Venable doing letting a journeyman lefty face a RH bat with Taylor up and ready.STUPIDMay have lost a game because of that
