Baron Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 16, 2012 -> 10:38 PM) Well that was a fun week of getting kind of excited about the Sox. Back to a painful and frustrating development year... And with Beckham and Morel it's gonna be a tough one. Youch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 17, 2012 -> 03:39 AM) Hit the ball hard before Stewart went in! Cause they have a pretty talented offense? Pretty sure we had the same conversation about them last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2012 -> 10:39 PM) How can you say it's not on the umpire when Reimold should have been struck out? This is one of the reasons I hate stone. He goes out of his way to absolve umpires the way hawk goes after them Edited April 17, 2012 by daa84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santiago was throwing fastballs over the middle of the plate. If you cant hit that you dont deserve to be in MLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 16, 2012 -> 10:38 PM) Orioles hitters are swinging out of their asses. Jones and Reimold look fantastic at the plate. Meanwhile, half our team seems to be feeling for the ball. Only about 3-5% of major league hitters turn on those pitches in those locations. They're a much better hitting team than the Sox, that's for sure. Other than AJ, Paulie and Tank against offspeed stuff, we're horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the organization starts making smarter decisions and gets Stewart the hell off the major league team, gets Morel out of the 2nd spot and send Beckham to the minors to see if he can salvage his sinking career.

greg775 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Pathetic. It didn't take long for the Sox bullpen to come down to earth. It didn't take long for DeAza to inexplicably pull a Pierre and drop balls 2 straight nights. It didn't take long for fans to expect Dunn to whiff every time up. It didn't take long to lose faith again in Beckham and Morel. Losing sucks. Had we won 4-2 none of these thoughts would have entered my mind.

I would agree. Put Fukodome in the second spot if you have to. At least he's a veteran who hits in April normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Robin can bring all the attitude adjustments to the clubhouse in the world, but it can't make up for the fact that this roster has some abysmal black holes and players not fit for a major league roster. Just hope Floyd and Peavy and Thornton can pitch their way to some awesome prospects and that Kenny can actually make a deal that acquires them haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a great 40 time. Promote a few to AAA, and tell Kenny he can't have them. He always gets his man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
