elrockinMT Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Let them score first. Not a good sign for a team like the Sox mired in a slump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksnort Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) They have got to get Ventura now before he starts to settle in. They need to be patient early, especially seeing Ventura was a little erratic in the 1st. Edited May 22, 2016 by Scoots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Just seems like a lineup where every other hitter should be batting 9th in an average lineup. Instead they are batting 5th or 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ May 22, 2016 -> 10:35 AM) This dead ass team could use a brawl. I don't think a brawl magically makes your team more talented. We're more than a handful of pieces away from being a legit contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksnort Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 It would be nice seeing a multi-run homer by the Sox in this game, or a couple solo shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 22, 2016 -> 07:40 PM) Lineup with Sanchez and Sands not going to score. Sanchez strikes out so much for someone with no power. He is just not a big league hitter. He's the offensive version of Erik Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronkark Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 All we're short is a 4 starter, a 5 starter, a lefty specilist in the pen. An elite set up man. A lefty power hitter. A quality pinch hitter utility player. Power bat off the bench. And prospects that will net anything in a trade. other than that, we're good to go.
