So the Red Sox get Alex Cora, who was part of the Astros cheating scandal, and suddenly the Red Sox are mashing.

Hmmmmm......

They went from trash to trash cans?

I'm marveling at the wonder with which Pat says "There's a case where the shift takes away a base hit."

Yes Pat. It did. Because that's what it's designed to do. Because it's almost like teams have figured out the tendencies of hitters and how to turn them against the person.

 

[The Nemesis]

Save us, Danny Jackson

Edit: He couldn't.

 

[Blitzkrug]

To be fair the Sox have been pretty notorious for being up and down for like the last decade.

Guys like J.D Martinez weren't going to hit that bad all the time like they did last season.

Wouldn't think Cora would be that dumb to implement something illegal but then again...

 

[Kurtz]

A guy that hit .280 last season with an above average OPS and has been bounced around the lineup/to the taxi squad because of other players this season isn't what i'd call hanging by a thread, but sure.

Trust me, a 26 year old in that shape who can only play 1B and has a career OPS of .760 and a career fwar of 0.4 in 190 games is not in high demand across the league. He's a very, very borderline MLBer and should be doing everything possible to hang on, including laying off the snacks.

They have also had a super soft schedule facing some crappy pitching.

Jays have played a ton of quality competition and a road heavy schedule to start the season.

Just a heads up for everyone in BC: Due to the Canucks, this game isn't on Sportsnet Pacific. You'll have to watch on the West/Ontario feeds instead.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Good recovery to get out of that jam with minimal damage but that pitch count isn't exactly what you want to see with a banged up and worked out bullpen lol.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I don't know what's going on with Lourdes, man. His numbers are awful. Can't hit.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Those were awful bunt attempts by Ray. I don't get it. He is supposed to have some experience doing this.

 

[Blitzkrug]

Every game i watch Acuna play i ask myself how he let the Braves dupe him into signing that absolute sweethart contract.

Kid is an absolute must watch player and they got him for dirt cheap.

Same with Albies. Another steal of a contract for the Braves

 

[as Pure as Evil]

having vlad and freeman dhing and playing firstbase would be a fine luxury if he decides to go elsewhere lol

 

[Griffin76]

Anyone else notice that Ray's left arm seems to be significantly larger than his right?

 

[Muston Atthews]

What a horrawful throw from third there

 

[trellaine201]

Buck being complimentary to biggio throw. He meant to do that. ROFL

Ray can't bunt. He's a power hitter. Montoyo is over complicating things.

 

[Forgotusername]

Vladdy to the rescue!

 

[Canada4Gold]

Vladdy!!!!

 

[The Nemesis]

Guys, I think Vladdy might be good at baseball.

Did Buck tell you that?

 

[CatchyTune]

Acuna and Vladdy tonight

 

[The Nemesis]

Did Buck tell you that?

I'm actually waiting for confirmation from Tabler on whether or not he's a baseball player.
