SCCWS Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 (edited) Boston's starting pitching is awful except for Porcello who we miss. However their closer is lights out so we do not want to get to the ninth behind. Obviously they hit the hell out of the ball. Ironically, they also lead the majors in stolen bases which is totally out of character for a Red Sox team. Edited May 3, 2016 by SCCWS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerksticks Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 QUOTE (flavum @ May 3, 2016 -> 04:30 PM) Eaton, Rollins, Abreu, Frazier, Cabrera, Lawrie, Sands, Navarro, Jackson Betts, Pedroia, Bogaerts, Ortiz, Ramirez, Shaw, Young, Hanigan, Bradley Haven't paid attention to the Red Sox this season but that lineup doesn't seem too powerful. Not that scared Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heads22 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 3, 2016 -> 10:43 AM) Yea I haven't seen a run like this since I think Heads back in 2005. I did win us a World Series. 14-1 record in game threads starting on September 28. Call me when this guy does it in the clutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Sale Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Taking my little brother to the game right now. Hoping to see some run support for Q tonight, maybe it's just Dickey but hoping our successes against him translate to other knuckleballers, especially back at home. Wouldn't mind to see Abreu continue to right the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sir Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Not related to this game, but I'm super excited because, for my b-day, my wife got us tickets to the May 10th game vs. the Rangers in Arlington. Rodon pitching, I think? Of course, my wife is a Rangers fan, so when we pounded Noesi in the ninth a few years ago, and Oswalt a few years before that, I had to keep my usual excitement rather subdued. Maybe it's just me, but it seems that all of our blowouts come against the Rangers... Anyways, go Sox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSoxFanMike Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 I really hope the Sox get to Wright early and often. Knuckleballers tend to be more vulnerable early in the game, so that is the time to pile it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've always worked the counts well. Especially in the AL East it seems because they play such long games. Particularly between the Yanks and Sox.
