This should prove once and for all that hitting coaches do not matter! Sox have been lift and pull forever!! Or at least since Hriniak left the scene. Batters do what they want to do.

i.e. Soto tries to obviously hit every pitch out; Avi swings every pitch, etc.

So less pressure?

I think so. Just think, he gets to show his ability without ANYONE expecting him to do anything. He's probably playing more carefree and really letting his mind just focus on his talents. I mean, no one can deny he has the ability. He was sooo good at Georgia, and his first little bit here. Something.. happened, and he stopped producing with his bat.

Franklin Morales and Chris Young are shutting the Sox down? Wow. 2010 called.

 

 

Young was the NL comeback pitcher last year...doesnt throw hard but not easy to pick up.

 

Scouting. They've lost Collins, Coleman, Crow, etc., and still putting up zeroes.

If this game re-starts, do they let the 20 or so fans who will remain sit wherever they want? Just curious. Cause seriously at 10:15 p.m., I can't imagine more than 20-50 fans remaining unless they are in that bar area. Do they let you go sit in the front row?

I hope they don't play til Sunday now. Get the bullpen fresh and avoid Noesi. Plus a 4-game sweep would be a killer.

I'd rather let it play out now. I mean Sox need to man up. If it's meant they lose all four, so be it. Play the games and not get rescued by rain/cold.

Seriously, why do you think the Sox stink after a winter in which everybody said we won the winter meetings; we won the Hot Stove League?

The "it's early" argument doesn't hold water really. You and I have seen this season as a continuation of last with stupid play, lousy approach at the plate and ridiculous defense and mental mistakes. The pitching again has been acceptable. Do we simply sign guys who do not care about on base percentage and it spreads like a cancer through the team? And the frustration of having such a s***ty/inconsistent might be a nicer word/ offense affects the defense in some perverse way?

Somebody must have answers.
