Thanks Escobar.

 

Chances we take advantage of this?

Alexei not paying attention running to first.

and i really just don't get it. the talent is there; the brains are not.

I don't know man, I'm really worried we're a power bat short.

That was bad at both ends, and Jose was bad defensively. What do they have in common? Masks.

They have to get at least one here.

Right now we are short at lead off as well. Our order is a mess.

with avi not hitting, yeah.

Let's consider scoring here

Productive out.

 

Come on Beckham, do something good!

I like how Hawk has to say tag up. Because he know he would forget.

Real entertainment is Rongey doing the game with DJ for some reason.

MJ should be there as of today, until Eaton fully wakes up.

Maybe Robin should try to shake things up? Put Micah at the top for a few games and see what happens

Quintana hasn't looked bad the entire game. He shouldn't even be trailing right now had it not been for Abreu's boneheaded play.

That should be an error. Maybe it will get changed after the fact.

Like I said pre season. Beckham has no place on a contending team. He's a utility guy on a middling club.

Because they could pitch him carefully with 1b open and induce him to do exactly that....its called strategy.

 

He doesnt swing, they simply walk him and Avi manages to mess things up again.

Did you watch the AB? The first pitch was right down the pipe.

 

If there was a way to pitch to Jose Abreu where he wiuld hit it right back to the pitcher, we would see it more often.

 

They pitch him carefully every AB

I think Eaton will come around, it's the 4 & 5 spots I'm worried about.

I've thought about that as well. Not sure it's time yet. But it may be coming.

I'm 100% not ready to say this offense is going to be a long term problem, especially when it's late April and the weather has been brutal for the most part.

 

Along with that, we've had a lot of games against the Royals who are incredibly solid (I know the Sox are going to have to beat them eventually).

 

you have a point, but something needs to be done, before the hole they are digging gets bigger.

Did you see where Perez was set up? That was not where Duffy was suppose to throw it

LaRoche is fine to me. Avi not so much. He's a guess hitter and he's bad at it.

Pitching around Gordon Beckham?

 

3-0 greenlight? Guess Duffy was just missing the zone and frustrated.

 

Of course he misses out on the high fastball.

Great, now Flowers can screw it up.. I hate that I have no faith in our team, it really sucks

Hope his hand is wet and he hangs a curve here.

It was 5 days ago a thread was created that suggested Micah be sent to AAA. Things change quickly.
