Jack Parkman Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) Um, this is gonna be bad for ye olde Pythagorean W-L. Detwiler and a depleted bullpen. Where's Bill Lumbergh when you need him lol? We need more people to come in to work on Saturday. Edited August 3, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusguyman Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I think after games that go 12+ innings, teams should be able to call up a 26th man, similar to how double headers work. I guess it may be logistically hard to get the player there overnight though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 The pitching matchup heavily favors Philly so much it's unbelievable. But baseball is dumb so... you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Bobby Abreu going to the Angels and literally working with hitters and preaching to them to work every count and take their walks. Quite a few hitters numbers jumped up if I remember correctly. No lie, I would take him right now in this org as a hitting instructor in some capacity.

pcq Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Most other teams work the count far better than what we have seen. You have to see the pitches and study the pitchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is almost like the org doesn't give a fuck about walking and making the opposing pitcher work for his outs. That's not even SABR stuff that's baseball 101 shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Have a feeling this will be a painful night to watch as a Sox fan. This lineup can’t touch Nola and it will be a miracle if Detwiler can get through any lineup 3 times without blowing up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a bad stat, but it is the number one thing a pitcher cares about, especially in that era. Hell, he won a Cy Young in large part thanks to a huge win total.
