Not much of a choice at this point unless Oakland wants to release a catcher.

heads up play Elvis !

Props to you both. I only said it after he got to 2nd on the WP.

LOl see that. I was right TLR wrong

Pinch runner for Yas ?

Not only that but his best ability is also his availability.

Cueto is amazing.

How u doin ' ?

Let's make some contact with a guy on 3rd

An extra base hit gets a run . Let's go Yo !

Oh they will. Their specialty as a team is late inning wins.

I like Gimenez. No funny looking batting stance, no open stance, not too close to the plate , not too far away.

LOl I was thinking the same thing. It just figures he wouldn't show up after showing up.

Has the homerless innings streak reached 50 yet ?

It's relaxing , nothing to get excited about.

The the original post said he was a good player and all you keep talking about is hitting in your objection to him being a good player.

Exactly what I was saying. I don't know how Kwan's career is going to go but guys like Carew, Gwynn, Boggs, Rose they master bat control, barrel it , go with pitches , balanced at the plate hit it everywhere.

Or make good contact while getting a lot of hits while playing decent defense or running the bases well. The only thing that counts in being a very good player is BABIP "luck" which in good hitters isn't really luck at all which some people who like to use BABIP never understand.

Ok just to be clear you really don't care ever about making the playoffs , just let the team continue to be mediocre or bad season after season.

17 DP GB induced by Cueto this year.

It was truly a BOMB !!! I mean he got all of it .

How can you say it was a correct decision ? Which prospects do you expect to come up and actually be good for the Sox in the coming years ? And will those coming years with those prospects yield any playoff baseball ? Too many here take a playoff appearance for granted like we have so many coming in the near future. If the Sox had got a couple of LH bats at the trade deadline this team might be in 1st place by a few games already with the starters and the BP doing a pretty good job. Then you have Colas who could've been brought up later to give the team even more of a LH flavor. Good pitching with some hitting and defense goes a long way.

Of course no one deserves to be off the hook.

What are you smoking ? While I applaud your bashing the low hanging rotten fruit like a pinata ,you say Hahn is pretty blameless because they , meaning who exactly, overspent on the bullpen ? Plus the world knew from last year they couldn't hit RHP and they still can't. They (Hahn) could've addressed that situation 3 times since the middle of 2021 and did nothing. While at some point they maxed out payroll the priorities were way out of wack. Let's let Rodon walk without a QO, Let's pick up Kimbrel's option and trade him and SURPRISE he was pretty untradeable but hey we got a 34yr old RIGHT HANDED HITTER! You're just as delusional about the cast of position players as Hahn is.

Fuck off ump same damn high strike you called on ABreu. As if Clase needs any help .
