  1. TA's OPS is creeping towards .750. He's really been kind of sleep walking ever since coming back from injury.
  2. That would have been a single last year cause Tony refused to shift on right handed hitters.
  3. The Angels are only 3 games up on the A's. Pretty crazy considering they were in position of a wild card spot as recently as June.
  4. Ragans has pretty good spinrate on his fastball. It's probably why we're not having much success against it.
  5. This offense was so fun back in 2020. It was even fun in 2019 cause Yoan was so dangerous that year.
  6. We're totally gonna let this guy throw 5 innings of 1 run ball aren't we?
  7. To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Yoan Moncada. The plate discipline is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of advanced metrics most of his play will go over a typical baseball fan's head. There's also Yoan's defensive outlook, which is deftly woven into his wins above replacement- his hitting philosophy draws heavily from Frank Menechino, for instance. The true Sox fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of his walks, to realize that they're not base on balls- they say something deep about BASEBALL. As a consequence people who dislike Yoan Moncada truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the value in Yoan's existential catchphrase "Disastre Personal," which itself is a cryptic reference to his struggles with females off the field. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Yoan Moncada's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. ? And yes, by the way, i DO have a Yoan Moncada tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid ?
  8. Why does that matter? If the ump signals out, the player doesn't have to go anywhere for them to put him on 1B.
  9. Why are the Rangers mad at the umpire? The ump made an initial favorable call for them.
  10. Sox hitters look like they're not trying to pull much of anything against Ragans. Constantly late on the inside fastball.
  11. Cueto's got regression written all over him. I'm not gonna complain when it happens cause he's well exceeded expectations. He'll probably end the year with a ERA near 4 unless he just keeps getting lucky.
