He's not a bad player, I like Alonso but we have a DH playing RF because Alonso was brought here to recruit Manny. That's my beef. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can choose to continue to support the team or not. If we choose not to waste time, we need to be prepared to accept the possible consequences of that decision.

Blackout Friday Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Jiménez looks like he’s never seen a slider before. Obviously that isn’t the case. They look like they never had a Spring Training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like Sox hitters always play into a pitcher's strengths and pitchers have no plan of attack against hitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my beef. The problem with the Sox the past several years is that there are too many DH type players and not enough fielders. In other words, the exact inverse of the Go-Go Sox who had great fielding abilities but poor power hitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I must admit I never understood why some people thought this team was going to score alot of runs this year...the only reason I thought they would be better was because of an improved bullpen...I hope they prove me wrong with the offense but this has been an ugly start.

Which is part of the reason I think our coaching staff may just suck a fat you know what. I’ve been a big Cooper fan for years, but I really think the game may have passed him by. No idea how Steverson still has job. And our teams are pretty much consistently bad from a fundamentals perspective, which the manager should be accountable for.

It’s called having an old school pitching coach that doesn’t believe in spin rate and strikeouts. Organization desperately needs wholesale changes if this year goes awful in terms of development. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you expect that Abreu and Alonso and Castillo will all be the players they were during their best seasons, the offense looks decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Ultimately a nice opening series wouldn’t have meant anything in the grand scheme of the season but it would have done loads for maintaining my interest through these months. but watching out starters once again struggle to find the zone with weaker stuff than expected, and hitters chopping balls to second on the second pitch while defense is a mess... tough to be psyched.
