I sure wish Melky would remember how to hit, without having to be on the juice.

It's a miracle that we've scored three runs with this lineup. If the Sox can hang around for another month or so, Hahn better find an upgrade at C or 3B.

 

Gillaspie already has seven errors. That's a ton for any 3b one-quarter of the way into the season.

 

You need to hit at least 800-825 to keep your position there if you can't defend very well.

Score some runs

Cabrera swings at a terrible pitch and weakly grounds out. Pathetic now the shadows our hitless wonders.

 

Sanchez missed three changeups in a row, somehow.

 

Not the best pitch to throw with delayed reactions due to the encroaching shadows.

I honestly think we got to get Melky out of the two-hole. Move him down to sixth and see if he can get his offense going. No idea who I'd bat second though. Sanchez is not an option IMO, which leaves you Alexei or Conor/Gordon.

Ball is flying today, hit a homerun already.

Abreu...so much blech right now.

Abreu with a god awful at bat. Stone tips the cap

Abreu K

Trevor May, making this lineup look akin to a single A or travel team.

8 K's for May already shows how bad this lineup is.

Abreu and Sale not being dominant this year is killing us.

Pitch recognition has been quite poor this season

when this offense starts to hit, it's going to be a fun summer.

8 ks in 5 2/3 the mystifying shadows.

 

This team has a hitting negative war that has to be hard to accomplish.

 

God this team sucks.

 

What is the todd syverson philosophy

when this offense starts to hit, it's going to be a fun summer.

I have heard that song and dance before then you wake up and it is late August!

May career high for K's is 10 against who the Sox last September go figure.

May 3-0 career vs. Sox.

 

Season (8) and career (10) highs in strikeouts against the Sox.

 

1). This lineup is truly 1986-87 terrible without Garcia.

2). The only humor today is from Paulie and the fact that some of his giveaway statues are missing appendages...leading to jokes about those alterations not affecting his speed much..."had 150 extra career doubles that were turned into singles by lack of speed...should have had 600"

Abreu and Sale not being dominant this year is killing us.

 

This is a real good point. You expect them to be two of the top 20 or so players in all of baseball. Last year, I would have said 3 runs is enough with Sale on the mound.

when this offense starts to hit, it's going to be a fun summer.

 

I feel like we've been hearing this every season since 2008.

 

Still waiting.

Abreu and Sale not being dominant this year is killing us.

 

And Quintana, Ramirez, Eaton and Shark going backwards, not to mention Flowers and Conor.

 

Still, the biggest concerns to me are Cabrera, catching and 2b, along with Rodon's control/change-up. We might have to add Sale's hesitancy to throw the slider more often. And the 3b situation. And the entire pen after Robertson and Duke. LOL.

These are some atrocious at bats. May has them guessing

71 pitches. Not even making him work.

Nice speed...hit a gapper

Do you steal here with Shuck?
