bmags Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 After one of the hottest hitting teams in baseball visited over the weekend, now the sox get one of the stingiest pitching staffs, led by Blake Snell. It's a beeeeeeee-auty of a day for the 6 people that can attend the game. And to make the sox heavy RH against Snell, that's right, we have a two catcher lineup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisox378 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Scouting Report on TB: Not a super power hitting team but TB lineup have some good hitters that seem like they can hit you to death. Diaz a very good hitter who can draw the walk, a great pick up by TB. Pham another good hitter who can pretty much do it all. Choi coming out smoking batting .370 Austin Meadows not 100% MLB tested but has proven to be a good hitter in the minors, can have some pop. Avi Garcia's return... TB starting pitchers are lights out so far and their pen has been terrific too with 4 pitchers yet to give up a run in over 21 total innings pitched. Hence they are 7-3. Rodon needs to be stellar, we may need to manufacture some runs. Go Sox! https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/TBR/2019.shtml Edited April 8, 2019 by Chisox378 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Soxtalk gamethread etiquette should require every OP to have the Sox gameday tweet. This will be the least attended game of the year right? 1pm on a Monday. Cubs opener at the same time on the other side of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some extensions for Chrome that make it very easy. Otherwise you could just google "reddit mlb st____" the game will be on there.

I'll never understand why people care so much about this. If McCann gets hurt and Castillo has to come in the pitcher or pinch hitter has to bat the rest of the game. Not the end of the world.

Like, don't do it in the playoffs, but reasonable risk if you like the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
