Abreu needs to snap out of his slump at home, crush maeda like an mvp

it's just a thought exercise, nothing wrong with discussing it my guess is they would limit his ABs assuming he was called up next year, doubt he'd be pushing any starters out of the lineup

conservative estimate, I like it

where is this kid gonna play assuming Mercedes, Vaughn, Eloy, and Robert are all starters?

just wanna say, I would love a Sox vs Sox post season rematch, I like how we match up against Boston, our offense is good vs good pitching and we can pretty much shut down even good hitting teams. just wonder if Sale is back by July / August like I've read

anybody else notice how the royals were pitching madrigal? everything was up or up+inside. his strikeout was up+inside do you think the league might have figured out a way to pitch him, or do you think his numbers are always gonna be roughly the same as right now?

I'd put Rodon ahead of JDM but flip a coin

100+ pitch outings 2016 Sale 26 times, 6 complete games 2015 Sale 25 times 2014 Sale 22 times the point of my first post was clear as the numbers reflect what I said, the Sox increased his work load every year until they traded him. my post didn't say "it's normal to expect 100-120 pitches per outing from your ace", especially when those last few years saw us resting Sale a few times due to elbow tightness. but if you felt that was an expected workload given the circumstances, then idk if I would agree. Kershaw for comparison only threw 100+ pitches 6 times in 2019, and 7 times in 2018 Scherzer is on the Sale-esque workload, his arm is ridiculous though. He did have a neck injury and I think a back injury tbf

isn't an AVERAGE of 107 pitches per game a lot though?

Sale threw 6 complete games in his final Sox year lol, could be wrong but I remember him throwing a ton of pitches that year also

Lamb and Hamilton will probably start vs Maeda judging by their splits ?

so tired of all these days off, I'm sure the team loves them but can't we just run off like 10 games in a row?

web gem!

what's up with moving Mercedes DOWN in the lineup. maybe thinking RBI opportunity with grandal getting on base a lot?

I'd trade abreu straight up for santana

supposedly

has Heuer ever had TJS? his delivery looks whack

I think it's a few guys right now have lost command of their pitches, more than being scared

you're garbage, fatty. go eat some chewy chips ahoy wait, are we not allowed to talk trash anymore? can't remember @knightni

back to back 3-2 counts followed by a BB for marshall, I have no faith in him anymore

btw if anybody wished this site had a dark mode theme for mobile, the Opera browser is great

team has responded to the injuries I gotta say, also let Mendick get more ABs plz

Vaughn might have a 400obp by the ASB

I'd rather hear DJ on this broadcast by himself than Len+Jason

thank God it's the royals and not a good team vs Lucas today
