[jays4life19]

So I see Scott Atchison come out and I think, he looks prehistoric. I check his age and of course it's the same as mine.

 

lol

[G-Snarls]

LIKE. A. BO$$

 

bam filler

[o2cui2i]

The way he has hit I suspect lawrie better get used to 2nd at least against RH pitching . Juan is brutal facing lefties

 

Amen to that. Juan has NEVER hit a HR off a LHP. lol

[gruber92]

Yep

 

It's a matter of plus bat / so so defender at 3B (Francisco) vs plus defender / garbage bat ar 2B (Goins/Getz)

 

Obviously with Lawrie at second, we get more offense out of the position, but what do you think of Lawrie's 2B defense versus Goins?

[Dylan]

he touched it

[S33n]

Amen to that. Juan has NEVER hit a HR off a LHP. lol

 

Pretty sure he hit one earlier this year, could be wrong.

[kgm1]

He is going to be safe

[Angrioter]

Some Runssssssss

[o2cui2i]

Obviously with Lawrie at second, we get more offense out of the position, but what do you think of Lawrie's 2B defense versus Goins?

 

Lawrie has better range, better reaction and better arm.... Goins is Tabler's guy, he's got soft hands.

 

Goins bat doesn't play well at any position except bat boy.

[John_Havok]

Yeah, but I can understand why they're challenging it, you don't see the base move at all.

[kgm1]

Buck thinks we are playing the red sox

[VegaBond]

LOL Buck always amazes me. Hes going senile.

[G-Snarls]

Yeah, but I can understand why they're challenging it, you don't see the base move at all.

 

And after all that it didn't matter

 

Oh well

 

BP hold pls

[o2cui2i]

Pretty sure he hit one earlier this year, could be wrong.

 

you're right. he did get one.

 

 

career .165 hitter against LHP, but he only has 123 AB vs LHP--- hopefully he can learn to sit back a little and at least get his OBP up so he doesn't hurt them against them

[G-Snarls]

Can someone tell me why Francona is considered a great manager?

[kgm1]

you're right. he did get one.

 

yep , he upped his wOBA to 181 against lefties

[G-Snarls]

Buck: "Loose Revere" lining up the infield defense

 

LOL

[o2cui2i]

yep , he upped his wOBA to 181 against lefties

 

not a lot to hang a jock strap on....

[IBTrini]

And after all that it didn't matter

 

Oh well

 

BP hold pls

Silver lining? Don't they lose the opportunity to call another challenge?

[Dylan]

lol that was perfect timing for that

 

/juan discussion

[G-Snarls]

Silver lining? Don't they lose the opportunity to call another challenge?

 

Yes!

 

Suck it Francona

[kgm1]

That was a hit. Francisco should have ate it

[John_Havok]

Jesus Buck you're an idiot... You do t plan your defense around what might happen if the pitcher misses his spot .... That's just f***ing retarded...

 

 

This is what passes for analysis .... Atrocious....

[G-Snarls]

lol that was perfect timing for that

 

/juan discussion

 

Yep

 

Ill advised throw for sure

 

Of course, Lawrie used to make more than his share of those

[kgm1]

Silver lining? Don't they lose the opportunity to call another challenge?

 

After the 7th they get another one I think

[G-Snarls]

Jesus Buck you're an idiot... You do t plan your defense around what might happen if the pitcher misses his spot .... That's just f***ing retarded...

 

 

This is what passes for analysis .... Atrocious....

 

It's brilliant. He KNOWS how likely Happ is to miss his spots after the 4th inning. Buck iz genius.

[RickyWalks]

"Look at the size of that body."

 

-Pat Tabler

[Atothe]

Happ's fastball is great tonight

[fatcowxlive]

How fluky is happ? Goddamn

[Atothe]

Happ pitches like I want Morrow to pitch, aggressive with the fastball and slider as a strikeout pitch
