8/7 Gamethread Sox vs Twins

Featured Replies

Whether the bunt call was stupid or not is something that can be debated. What can't be debated is that Morel wasn't out of the box and therefor, wasn't out. It was a foul ball. And it wasn't even close. Both of his feet were still in the box for pete sake.

C'mon Morel.

 

If you're going to have a 585 OPS, at least MOVE THE RUNNER to 2B.

 

That's all we're asking. Not a double, not a homer, just a productive AB.

Then don't ask a guy who isn't a great bunter to bunt. He's good at putting the ball in play, he doesn't strike out a lot, why not hit and run?

Did you see the play? Clearly you didn't cause it was a bad call. Morel wasn't out.

He let the pitcher and the Twins bench make the call. He didn't even see it....

Why on Earth wouldn't it?

 

If Strasburg comes back in late September and is throwing 91 in a start and doesn't have the great changeup, will you say that his stuff wouldn't get better over the offseason?

 

Difference in injuries and wear and tear in these two. It's like comparing apples to I don't know oranges, maybe?

Did the Sox announcers even talk about it? I know the Twins announcers showed the replay and were like, wow, that wasn't even close.

Holy cripes....White Sox threw someone out.

Not like Hawk sometimes obsesses over calls.

stone said "it looks like he got the call wrong but"

Flowers has a slightly better arm than AJ...

all 5 teams in the AL Central have negative run differentials. that is not good

what can't lillibridge do?

Frodo is doing a good job at 1st base

Start

BOMB

Lillibridge thinks that HR was wimpy.

Paulie!!

Crushed! Paulie...YES!

So Ozzie calls Sox fans idiots for wondering why Dunn continues to bat clean up 3 days ago. Now he's going to give him an "extended break". Hey Ozzie, GMAB.

 

The Sox have been playing pepper with the second deck in LF this series.

Making this park look small!

its a shame that paulies great season is being wasted by the rest of this offense

That facade is in play? I'm surprised.
