NorthSideSox72 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 QUOTE (onedog#1 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 02:04 PM) Hey, new poster here long time follower here at soxtalk. Grew up loving the early 90's sox since that was my first memory gives you an idea of my age, 25 here. Anyways.. just wanting to comment on the rest of this sox tigers series, was hoping we could yesterdays game with their 2 big arms pitching today and tomorrow. We are still relying on the long ball got them yesterday but all solo. I feel the sox need to put the pressure on this bad tigers defense these next two games knowing that verlander and max not going to throw too many bad pitches to sox hitters ( hopefully im wrong on that) I just know Hawk and Stoney were critical in the previous series in Detroit for not laying many bunts down with Cabrera with a bum ankle, put the pressure on them were at home.. need one of these next two games. Hopefully Gavin " no emoticons" Floyd keeps his success going against the tigers. I don't have much confidence in liriano getting his control back in the pen, but will see.. Welcome to the board!

And I am not real conident in Liriano anymore either. I guess there was a reason he was 3-10 with the Twinkies and they were ready to let him go. Lots of talent but he just can't seem to harness it Edited September 12, 2012 by elrockinMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It worked great for the last hitters we tried to develop. And hey, I'm sure he'll be back in the lineup ready to do damage tomorrow. Maybe he'll get lucky and the pitcher will be easy to hit. Let me go check who's pitching...Verl-something or other. That guy can't be any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Wise plays shallower in CF, according to D.J., and can get to balls that DeAza plays too deep for. I believe that a ball fell in front of DeAza again last night.

Good point, but D.J. & Farmer sure seem disappointed at how deep DeAza plays. They keep mentioning it and it seems like they wish that he would play a few more steps in. D.J. says the DeAza is too scared of having a ball hit over his head. It just seems to me that there are far too many bloop singles falling in front of him that they think Wise would catch.

caulfield12 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Verlander and Scherzer aren't going to hang breaking balls over the plate for Dayan or Gordon to hammer. That said, it will be interesting to see if Johnson and Hudson can actually produce any results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The implications for this loss are enormous. Disgusting. Enjoy the strikeouts guys! Sox will be lucky to even threaten to win this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Has any team in MLB history ever lost 10 of their last 11 games to their closest pursuer and still won the division? Seems next to impossible this would have ever happened before, and yet it's VERY possible with the Sox/Tigers this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
