"returning to the mean" is such a foreign concept to some baseball fans, yet every year is like constant examples of it over and over again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxfest Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 08:10 PM) Eaton's a good baserunner but not a good base stealer. Unfortunately it is showing it's ugly head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that was a perfect throw. But still Eaton has not been a prolific base stealer in his young career so far, especially considering the speed he has. I love his hustle and his baserunning.

Dick Allen Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Hawk and Stone were wondering why he wasn't throwing any curveballs. Then he does and mowed them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I just don't get the disgust with Rienzo. He's not great, he's not a 1, 2 or 3 but he's adequate. More you can say than Paulino and Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 07:55 PM) I'm not. Should have traded him after opening day, but I imagine no teams were foolish enough. I dont understand why people have this huge problem with De Aza. 7.5 WAR in what amounts to two and a half years as a Sox, and his salary during his time here has been fine value for that. For all the problems we've had around here, you would think people would direct their ire elsewhere. "ohhh but he's lazy/dumb blah blah blah."
