mikep Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Getting the Astros feed again.Announcers said the talk about the Sox is they beat themselves with poor play and mistakes that don't appear in the box score.Referenced Danks pickoff last night.They're right.

spiderman Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 3-1 count, swing at ball 4, and then pop out in the OF. Horrible 2nd inning AB by Keppinger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Dunn's BABIP has been so low that there is no explanation for it but bad luck. He'll bat over .200 for the season. Beyond that, I dare not prognosticate too much on the enigma that is Adam Dunn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 At least Flowers' bat has started to show some life and his throwing has really become excellent as of late. He has a little time to get his head on straight when it comes to blocking balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Pretty good AB by Crowe, but it seems the occasional walk-filled inning will be a part of the Hector experience. Gotta get this guy, now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Hayes said before the game that the Sox are "married" to the idea of Flowers being their catcher this year, so they'll give him this entire year most likely.

fathom Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) Keppinger's range at 3b is pathetic. This team is so f***ing bad, just have to hope this weekend's debacle causes some type of shake-up. Edited June 16, 2013 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're trying to build, you're going to have to be willing to take some lumps with Tyler. This gives Phegley plenty of time to marinate down in AAA instead of being pushed up at the first time of a good run. Let Josh put well over half a season together before we start worrying about putting him on the MLB club. If Flowers still sucks, you haven't lost anything. If Flowers looks like an everyday big leaguer by then, you have the happy problem of too many bats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like Cooper is a moron if he doesn't work night and day with Santiago on a 2nd and 3rd pitch every chance he gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
