GDT: 4/17/2016 Blue Jays vs Red Sox - Game 3/4

[Effit]

Of course

[EdwinsParrot]

Of course

[Angrioter]

Thanks Martin.

[intentional wok]

Of course it leads to a run. Brutal mistakes so far this year.

[Belliss101]

Martin's game calling is pathetic

[THANOS]

Man, it was a good pitch. Left him with splinters.

 

Maybe, but he had the timing figured out. If there was a better mix off OS and FBs, maybe that's a swinging strike.

 

And just as a type this, Martin called "yet another" 2 strike fastball.

[Statman]

Russell Martin costing us runs.

[Governator]

That was a s***** sequence of events.

[Statman]

Martin's game calling is pathetic

 

Also add in declining framing and bat.

[Effit]

Can't give Boston an inch, they'll take a mile.

[CJ-Freeway]

Lol

[jays76]

K calm down Sanchez.

[gruber92]

Lucky run.

[Belliss101]

Okay offense... A few more runs would be excellent right now.

[Daniel Labude]

This is terrible pitch calling. 98% fastballs today, even though he has a decent curve and maybe only thrown 1 changeup.

[Slade]

Martin's game calling is pathetic

 

Why would you blame this on Martin? Sanchez is not going to throw off speed stuff if he doesn't want to. Obviously not comfortable with it today.

[THANOS]

I don't blame Sanchez for either of those hits. Martin's game calling has been very mediocre this game and awful the past couple innings.

[Belliss101]

Why would you blame this on Martin? Sanchez is not going to throw off speed stuff if he doesn't want to. Obviously not comfortable with it today.

 

Ugh.

[Orgfiller]

Has anyone bothered to admit the possibility that Sanchez just doesn't want to throw his secondary pitches?

[Hal Johnson]

Let's get some runs!!

[Hal Johnson]

Has anyone bothered to admit the possibility that Sanchez just doesn't want to throw his secondary pitches?

 

Yeah, that's very likely it. But, why would he not want to?

[THANOS]

Why would you blame this on Martin? Sanchez is not going to throw off speed stuff if he doesn't want to. Obviously not comfortable with it today.

 

And how do you get comfortable with your change-up throwing it a total of once in this game?

[Trouba95]

Some add on runs would sure be nice.

[Angrioter]

Sanchez today 99.99% fastballs

[Dylan]

ugly, tulo

[Belliss101]

Ugh another k.

[Governator]

This is terrible pitch calling. 98% fastballs today, even though he has a decent curve and maybe only thrown 1 changeup.

 

I saw Sanchez shake offa pitch for the outside fastball instead last inning. I don't know if its all Martin, I think Sanchez made this plan.

[Slade]

And how do you get comfortable with your change-up throwing it a total of once in this game?

 

Ok but how is Martin suppose to force him to throw it? It doesn't matter if he calls it or not, if Sanchez doesn't want to throw it he's not going to.

[Hal Johnson]

Jesus, Tulo...

[vdubmvp]

Has anyone bothered to admit the possibility that Sanchez just doesn't want to throw his secondary pitches?

 

No, it's obviously all Martin.
