fathom Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 QUOTE (Brian @ May 14, 2014 -> 10:18 PM) We've trucked out lineups with Simien, Sierra, and Leury, sprinkled with De Aza. Lots of outs. As the reality of the season starts to come more into focus, it hurts even more that Avi is out for the year and can't develop. I guess the struggles of this offense shouldn't be surprising, as it's basically the same cast of characters from last year besides Abreu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ May 14, 2014 -> 04:25 PM) Jaso pulls a De Aza. Picked off? Caught Stealing? Doubled off? Dropped a ball in the OF? Overthrew a cut off man? So hard to tell what that means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Sox starting pitchers have got through 7 innings 7 games this season, and 3 of them are Sale. That's pathetic. Edited May 14, 2014 by flavum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Good stuff by Rienzo today. One bomb and one wind blown homer. Too bad he'll probably take the L. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ May 14, 2014 -> 10:00 PM) I am trying to think of an Asian hitter who used to do it, but De Aza took his left foot (back foot) and stepped over his front foot in some sort of a running swing. Beckham really seems to have more power this year. Lots of deep flyouts, just hit one way out foul and the the three homers of course. Sounds like what Ichiro does and what Podsednik was doing years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
