caulfield12 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 08:26 PM) His defense also kicked him in the balls which doesn't show in that line either. Engel’s ball he overran, Avi had a 50/50 ball he dropped...Engel had a terrible throw from CF that allowed both runners to advance in the process. Leury looked good, though.

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 11:30 PM) Moncada and Delmonico have been very unlucky so far with batted balls. I look forward to their luck improving. Moncada has been hitting it really hard. Darn near had a slam tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanne Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 4, 2018 -> 09:54 PM) For what it's worth, there was a scoring change. Fulmer is on the hook for 2 runs, not 3. It is not yet updated on box scores, but @cst_soxvan tweeted it. that what I thought too when they flashed his numbers after he came out. How the hell did he get charged with 3 runs?

Leury looked good, though. yeah...he threw to the wrong base. Can't remember but Davidson didn't seem in the right position to cut it off either...but he should have thrown ahead of the runners to 3rd. Fundamentals have been lacking a little...which I hope Ricky is harping on right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Really nice outing by Fulmer. I didn't start watching until the fourth inning, but I liked what I saw. I hope this was a sign of what he can be. Jones and Soria looked great. I agree with some previous posts - late innings bullpen looks good, otherwise not so much. I heard that the Sox lead the majors in home runs after yesterday's game. That's pretty cool. Not a stat that will last, but it's nice to see the power.

LittleHurt05 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Let's enjoy 1st place until the Indians go on their inevitable 17-1 run. If Fulmer can just be a #4 or #5 starter, that would be big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the hell did he get charged with 3 runs? Yes, it wasn't Engel being charged with an error, which should happen. Pierce singled and scored vs. Bummer and somehow the scorer charged Fulmer. It appears they need a new scorer in Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Pierce singled off of Bummer. There were two runners that Bummer inherited, but one was thrown out at home, so when he scored it should have been on Bummer.

I remember looking at the box score and thinking that was what happened, but I figured I mixed something up. Really Fulmer should have been hit for 1 ER.

There were two runners that Bummer inherited, but one was thrown out at home, so when he scored it should have been on Bummer. I don't think that's how it works with inherited runners though. Since their was a fielder's choice involving a Fulmer runner (smoak at home), I think Fulmer is responsible for new runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 On Engel's defense, dude gets to balls that most CF's don't. The two balls he's dropped this year I don't think a lot of CF's get to. That said, he's here for his defense and if he's going to get to those balls he has to finish the play off and make the catch. On the throw to home, I have no issue with the thought process, if he makes a good throw there he's got a good chance to get the runner, problem is he didn't make a good throw. And ya, Nate was getting squared up pretty good last night but as long as he's healthy, he'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And ya, Nate was getting squared up pretty good last night but as long as he's healthy, he'll be fine. He well overran that first one and had to reach back over his head. It’s a ball 85-90% of MLB CFers should comfortably get to...didn't require anything close to a Buxton burst of speed. Maybe he was having problems with the dome backdrop...just seems he wasnt tracking it well or just was a bit off with his route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty cool. Not a stat that will last, but it's nice to see the power. They may not finish #1 in the category but don't go thinking this lineup doesn't have plenty of pop, especially as Anderson and Moncada continue to gain experience. Davidson looks completely different at the plate. And we've got Eloy likely to come up and contribute this season. What's most interesting to me is that we've played fewer games than most teams, have had very few cheap home runs, and still lead the league? That's a promising stat.
