fathom Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Not to jinx the 9th, but the Sox have done a great job of limiting home runs by the Astros in the 6 game series. Jennings was only person to give one up, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:57 PM) Well that just strengthens my argument. If it's merely to stay out of the double play, that means you're expecting Soto to behave like he does in a normal at-bat. And Soto swings just 40% of the time, puts the ball in play about 35% of the time, and gets groundballs on his balls in play just 40% of the time. Therefore, he hits a groundball on roughly 6% of pitches. He gets hits on about 10% of pitches. He takes called strikes about 27% of the time and swinging strikes about 10% of the time. Therefore I have the chances at a groundball or hit at about 16% and a strikeout at about 37% of the time. Adjust somewhat for a 3-2 count if you want to but it's not gonna make up the difference. But you are ignoring the situations his running is a push. The only gamble is striking out and lining out. Plus with 3 balls his chances for a walk are heightened.

bmags Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I feel like I could get a hit against Neshek. I am seeing the ball real well from my couch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarComing25 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 With Avi and Abreu hitting bombs lately and LaRoche doing well the last few weeks, if we could get Melky, Alexei and Eaton to approach their 2014 numbers our offense wouldn't look bad.

The only gamble is striking out and lining out. Plus with 3 balls his chances for a walk are heightened. I said adjustments can be made but I'm still right. You said the chance of a groundball/hit was higher than a K. I believe I have demonstrated that not to be true. As if to prove it, Soto just came up with a runner at first, looked at a strike, swung at a strike and looked at 4 straight balls. He just doesn't perform in a way that it's optimum to run with him there, particularly with my gripes about Avi not being a good runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGajewski18 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Yeah I thought he was out as well. Larch's foot went the front of home instead of back. But if that's definitive then I don't know how Avi's steal wasn't clear. Edit: Stupid auto correct, but I vote that's his new nickname.
