I don't think it did.

Assuming this is troll thread but from last series in Cleveland thread...

I have it on good authority that he will be fine, weight wise. Then again get ready for..... http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7223/7177383640_471a3fc741_o.jpg

Alright, lets close out these mofos.

Buck talking about not walking the tie run, meanwhile the go ahead run is at the plate.

Honestly I think it is you who is missing the point. 1. Run expectancy is not a team stat, ie. good teams and s***** teams. It is a stat based on individual ab's of all players in the league to determine outcomes measured in runs. Bad teams can have good hitters and vice versa (Goins was on the 2015,16 Jays). Run expectancies have the same veracity for bad teams as they do for good teams. 2. The fact that run expectancy when a player is allowed to bat is higher than when he bunts is true irrespective of how good/bad the team is. On a s***** team team, yes the chances of a producing a run via a hit is lower than a good team, but it is still better than bunting for that same s***** team. A poor hitting team just moves down on the run expectancy scale, but their run expectancy via a bunt also moves down. It is all relative and not based on how good or bad a team is. 3. No one puts weight on metrics based on two games in Cleveland much less a season with 10 games played. Why would you even bring up such a weak point? ( ) 4. Another glaring omission is that you fail to consider babip. With a runner in scoring position just putting the ball in play could yield a run. BABIP in mlb is somewhere around .300 year over year. That is why you swing the bat, EVERYTIME, because as Tercet will tell you, even Gurriel can get a hit if he puts the ball in play. Why give up those odds for even lower odds with a bunt? With a runner on second and no outs, it is unfathomable why anyone would chose to bunt. “outs are a commodity. They are the currency by which the game is governed, and willfully giving up an out is never worth the extra base that a bunt can provide. It's trading a piece of gold for a piece of silver."

Get Giles warmed up....we gonna go yard.

Galvis tag from a bounced ball....guy is full value.

Swing the bat Maile!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Buck and Tabby have never got a pop culture reference correct.....ever.

Bosox......World Series hangover. Hope it lasts until after we leave town next week.

We are not going to have a good year, accept it and save yourself the frustration and enjoy the season.

But how many ab's has Alford had in his career at AAA....basically nothing. He's had bad luck but hasn't knocked on the door hard enough.

....and the Bosox are trending to finish last in the east.

Wasnt a strike....good job Maile.

I just realized I don't hear the Cleveland drum guy.......you have to be thankful for small blessings.

We'll see what happens when Buchholz comes up. Also once the league gets a "book" on Thornton he may not look the same.

wtf........

Boom!

Tony Fernandez flashback.

Smoak out....
