Hey Hey Hey, it's Fat Albers. In to pitch.

1, 2, 3 inning for Albers. Still losing 3-0.

Both he and Frazier with loud outs... both of which are probably HRs in USCF.

The ball carries better in AZ no?

Game thread already angry.

I am really hoping Latos and Johnson outshine Danks and the sox are forced to move him to the bullpen or release him

 

The Sox could keep him around to pitch batting practice, to earn his $15-16 mil salary.

 

 

Nice charging play by Frazier on a weak grounder.

Avi finally swung at the 7th pitch he saw of the day.

Yup, noticeably working on taking today.

Stood taller, but still collapsed big time on the offspeed pitch. Had a nice swing on a fastball away, but got sawed off by an inside fastball.

Pretty sure you won't be able to watch it because last night the Angels game was blacked out under the same conditions.(game over already for a few hours ) on MLB Network.

I've been watching in real time since the start of the game.

Hey, look everyone! A goose egg!!

Lawrie nice BB and then great base running. His swing is so quick.

Good play by Lawrie to take third during the hit-and-run groundout to 1B.

Dirtbag baby!! Love it!!

Great baserunning by Lawrie.

 

Stealing on the play, the groundball was hit to 1B and deflected off the glove. 1B ran to get the ball and flip it to the pitcher covering, and Lawrie rounded 2nd and kept going to 3rd and made it easily realizing the 1B was worried about the play at 1B.

Then Frazier reaches out and pokes a flyball to deep RF somehow to drive home Lawrie. Great plate coverage and awareness to realize he needed to hit a flyball somewhere. Awesome sequence of 2 plays.

Sands killed one of CF fence. Avi then had 3 horrible swings and weakly grounded out.

I'm already frustrated with Avi. Haha.

Sands doubles to deep center. Avi grounds out weakly to the right side.

The thing with Avi's swing is he still gets very little of his lower body into it. That AB looked exactly like everything we've ever seen from him.

Putnam in now. We've gotten looks at a lot of the MLB bullpen today.

Putnam doing his best Danks impression

Sands with two good plays in LF

Who said white man can't jump?

Sands with two good plays in LF

He should be ahead of Avi on the depth chart.
