This is a good game to skip with the stupid luck. JBJ hits a 107 mph out with two guys on and every single ball put in play by the Rays is a hit. Longiria with an 80mph 2B.
Foria has an xFIP of 7.06 and Sale has a 1.47 in this game.

hurts...get used to such good results with Sale. It is time for others to pick up slack. Really, I am hoping for a split this series. Long Road trip here. Just need to keep it even and get out of Dodge.

baseball can be such a confounding game...
7-1. 15-1. 7-5. 11-4 wins - then an 8-2 loss and tonight's 4-1 (so far)..Mookie an 8 RBI game, tonight pop up city.
A wonderful game of inexplicable streaks.

I gotta agree with Radio.....Hanley needs to do better...if he is injured, he needs to go to DL. Checking Fangraphs..there isn't anything to write home about. We need a DH that will produce. As we are seeing with 3B....a change could do you good.

It's going to be interesting what they do for the next 3 games with Xander likely out and no one on the bench who can play anything but 1B. Have to guess a move is made.

None of the other hitters is putting a negative WAR while his only job is to hit AND batting in the heart of the order. I also hate his guts and leave no place for reason when it comes to this helmet-dropping overpaid idiot heh.

I also hate his guts and leave no place for reason when it comes to this helmet-dropping overpaid idiot heh. Well their only hope is for him to start hitting like he is capable of. So I imagine you'll be here updating us on every one of his at bats that we're already watching.

The good - 3.5 game lead. Got two stinkers of games out of the system. Mookie is now due again. Let's get back at it tomorrow.
The bad - Hanley saw only 11 pitches in his 4 ABs. The Sox made another young pitcher Cy-like.

Get a good nights sleep. Get to the park and break out the bats and balls. And win tomorrow. Still feeling great about this team.

He sucks and we all know that so no need for repeating it in every single thread. I'll stop commenting about him.

Can Lin lead off tonight? I like his patient atbat. Plus he seems to run the bases wisely.

It kind of makes me laugh when people complain about Betts' popping up too much. Instead of being one of the best 5 players in baseball, some aren't satisfied with anything less than the best player of all time.

I don't remember much internet baseball stuff beyond ESPN in 1999-2000, but every time Pedro was less than outstanding from 2002 to 2004 there was a mini-freakout calling him overrated, saying he didn't have the durability to be an ace and live up to his contract, etc. Seems pretty crazy now.

Oh those ESPN message boards were cancer. I think there might have been one part time moderator.
