GDT: 2/2 Toronto@Boston 7:10pm

[Carlos Danger]

I was going to complain about Brito hitting, but under no circumstances do I want Teo in the field with a 1-run lead.

 

Yes, but the point of Teo is to not have a 1 run lead and open it up and have some cushion. I can take that and have Teo in lf at Fenway for an inning.

[gruber92]

Atkins is really being an idiot giving Brito all this rope when we have a legit prospect in Alford who is ready for an extended MLB tryout. I guess rookie GM Atkins thinks he's smarter than the rest of the field. I'm still scratching my head on the Morales signing and the Grichuk extension. Hopefully the Grichuk extension works out.

[DigitalRock]

Why do fans boo when they throw over?

[gruber92]

Giles looks off

 

It's cold, slick ball.

[Terminator]

In a small sample Hanson has rated as a pretty brutal outfielder lol.

 

Yeah so small that it's worthless even looking at. He's probably not great but I have no idea.

 

Idk I think the impact of that AB is greater than the defensive replacement value. He likely doesn't even get a ball hit to him. Gurriel has been playing OF too. But a hit there and the game is on ice. A sacrifice and it's a huge addition to our win probability, probably more than doubles it.

It's a fair point.

[Abomination]

Wonder how long it takes the drone operator to realize he's almost out of battery, and the authorities will simply follow it home when it automatically triggers a return route?

[bones10]

Giles takes his time out that, its damn nerve racking

[Orgfiller]

Looks like he doesn't have a great feel of his slider.

Grichuk has been hot garbage since signing that contract! If he doesnt pick it up by mid May

[DigitalRock]

Way too may high fastball he was looking for it

[Spanky99]

Egad!

[Effit]

f***

[BTS]

Not blaming Grichuk, but I wonder if Pillar catches that.

[Orgfiller]

f***. Playing at Fenway is just the worst.

[Corporal Valdal]

He does

[DigitalRock]

Pillar catches that lol

f*** you're annoying.

 

I do feel like Pillar catches that though.

[Carlos Danger]

Does Alford or Pillar get that ball?

[Orgfiller]

Pillar plays pretty shallow, it's hard to say. Grichuk got a decent break on that.

[KevinGregg]

Was hoping Randall would catch that

[P2F]

f***. Playing at Fenway is just the worst.

 

It's a clown park, bro.

[Corporal Valdal]

f*** you're annoying.

 

I do feel like Pillar catches that though.

 

But he has been horrible since singing that contract though! Annoying maybe, but truthful. Smoke some Indicia and relax brother!!

[saskjayfan]

Does Alford or Pillar get that ball?

 

Pillar for sure...but I think Alford is an upgrade on Grichuk in centre as well....Grichuk is a below average centre fielder....

[Carlos Danger]

We cant get a run on a sac fly and this is what happens.. We don't have the pen to compete in extras away if they dont win it here..

[BTS]

Pillar plays pretty shallow, it's hard to say. Grichuk got a decent break on that.

 

Would have been close either way. I'm still annoyed that he got traded just to save $5M when the team's payroll is paltry. Brito and Hanson are definitely worse.

[Corporal Valdal]

I love how the dumb f*** yanks are yelling Canadian Coward at Giles!

[DigitalRock]

Giles doesn't have it.

[saskjayfan]

where was the slider against Moreland...

[DigitalRock]

where was the slider against Moreland...

Pitch selection to Moreland was bad.
