elrockinMT Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 (edited) QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 21, 2017 -> 01:31 AM) Minnesota always is pesky against the Sox. Piranhas Ozzie called em. Hopefully we get one this series or the downward spiral to oblivion might be back. I have always hated the twins. As a kid all we got on the radio was twins broadcasts. Only good thing back then was the 18 Sox games I could listen to Edited June 21, 2017 by elrockinMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 20, 2017 -> 07:35 PM) BTW, I am loving what we are getting from Davidson. Yea he looks good. We are seeing more guys that can carry a 25-30% strikeout rate and still be productive MLB hitters. Davidson might be one. Why the f*** does Smith get so much playing time over Narvaez? Narvaez' skill set isn't really platoon dependent. He's going to go 1-4 with a walk against L and R pitching most nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait for the platoon of Collins and Carson Kelly I like Narvaez. Any catcher that can carry a .350 OBP is OK by me. That said, ideally he's a backup on the next good Sox team. He's like a 1-2 WAR type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 God the Twins announcers are dumb. I guarantee you Pythag 70 odd games in predicts future record better than actual record. The Hard Ball Times did a study that showed actual record only predicts better after 100 or so games. Run differential is absolutely not worthless. Ask the 2016 Cubs.

I know there has been that discussion but he wants to stay at second base. Can they change his mind? We don't have the depth in CF at this time.
