fathom Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 QUOTE (Soha @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 01:59 AM) I hope they aren't expecting him to do a 2 inning save. That's a formula for a blown save. Credit to Renteria if he did it cause top of the order was up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautox Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 1.) Someone phone'd Hahn to put D-rob in for two for trade reasons 2.) that last AB was piss poor by TA 3.) nice 3 hit game for Melky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OmarComing25 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) Looks like he probably just wanted Robertson to face the top of the order. I like it. Edit: Nevermind Edited June 11, 2017 by OmarComing25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 QUOTE (maxjusttyped @ Jun 11, 2017 -> 02:10 AM) So confused right now. Most likely reason is RR wanted Robertson to face their studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 For such a good reliever it's crazy how much variance there is with Robertson's stuff. There are times when he's completely untouchable and others when it looks like he's throwing slop at the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Serious question: Is Holmberg any good? I see he's young and a former 2nd round pick. Not some 25th rounder. Any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the trade talks and tgecrebuulsvidea, but problem is everyone calling for the dismantling of the current team has no idea who or what we should get in return. All you hear is some vague mention of "prospects." Plus who do we have to replace the important pieces we may think should be traded? I seriously think contract extension for Frazier and Robertson would be a good move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you hear is some vague mention of "prospects." Plus who do we have to replace the important pieces we may think should be traded? I seriously think contract extension for Frazier and Robertson would be a good move Just my opinion but it really doesn't matter for the next two seasons, who they replace the guys who are traded with. That's all part of the process that has been decided already for right or wrong by the powers that be. Any warm body will do. They are going to lose and lose an awful lot, may as well get used to it, make the best if it and get something good out of it (hopefully) at the end. Also on the topic of free agency, under current ownership the Sox have never, are never and will never spend the hundreds of millions of dollars to get the absolute top free agents out there. Plus this past off season's crop of free agents as well as next year's is not considered good overall. Even if you signed a bunch of them there were (are) very, very few difference makers...not worth what they were asking. And the Sox had and still have more holes in the lineup and on the roster than craters on the Moon. Even if they wanted to they couldn't possibly sign enough decent free agents to attempt to fill all the gaping issues. On another topic, the only bad thing tonight was that once again the starting pitcher couldn't go deep into the game (but at least they didn't use Petricka!

Hey Lip, you are a very very smart person so I'll ask you an honest question. Do you trust our front office to draft the right guys and actually put together a consistent winner after 3-4-5 seasons of this crap? Do you trust that the Sox will acquire good prospects/good future players with this current brain trust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Frazier has been kind of Adam Dunn like with his lousy hitting and Ks, but I respect your right to want to sign him. Robertson definitely is a B-plus closer.
